Robert De Niro ATTACKS Public After Charlie Kirk Death! This Is DISGUSTING! His Career Is OVER
The nation is still reeling after the tragic and violent death of conservative commentator Charlie Kirk, who was gunned down on September 10th in what many are calling an act of political terrorism. As details continue to unfold, public reactions have ranged from heartfelt condolences to divisive political commentary—and some of the most inflammatory rhetoric is now coming from none other than actor Robert De Niro.
What should have been a moment of national mourning and unity is instead being used as a platform for ideological grandstanding by certain celebrities—De Niro chief among them. His recent remarks have sparked widespread outrage, with critics calling his statements “disgusting,” “tone-deaf,” and “irresponsible.”
De Niro’s Statement Sparks Outrage
In comments attributed to De Niro shortly after Kirk’s assassination, the actor seemed to blame the victim—saying Kirk “should have seen it coming.” He went on to argue that Kirk’s alignment with Donald Trump and so-called “toxic rhetoric” from the political right created an atmosphere that “invited backlash.”
Rather than expressing empathy for a man murdered in broad daylight, De Niro launched into a rant against Trump, Republicans, and even the general public, doubling down on his long-standing hatred for conservatives. He even dismissed any suggestion that the political left could bear any responsibility for the deepening national divide, instead claiming that “everything Trump touches leads to chaos.”
The Public Responds: “He’s Done”
De Niro’s remarks were met with immediate backlash. Many Americans, including moderates and independents, have condemned the actor for using a tragic death as a political weapon. Critics have accused De Niro of lacking basic human decency and turning a national tragedy into an unhinged political tirade.
Some are calling for a boycott of De Niro’s future projects, with many saying his career is effectively “over”. Once known as a legendary figure in Hollywood, De Niro’s increasingly political outbursts are beginning to overshadow his decades-long film legacy.
Not Just De Niro: Hollywood’s Growing Problem
De Niro isn’t alone. In the wake of Charlie Kirk’s assassination, several figures in entertainment, gaming, and comic book industries have come under fire for either celebrating Kirk’s death or issuing cold, partisan reactions. Some developers and writers have already faced consequences—including termination—for crossing moral and professional lines.
The double standard is glaring. Imagine if a progressive figure had been killed and conservative celebrities reacted the same way—there would be wall-to-wall media coverage, mass cancellations, and public outrage. But in this case, mainstream media seems largely silent.
Division Over Decency
What happened to Charlie Kirk was horrific. It should have sparked bipartisan condemnation and calls for peace. Instead, figures like Robert De Niro have chosen to exploit the moment for political gain, ignoring the real human loss.
At a time when Americans should be uniting against violence—no matter who the victim is—De Niro’s behavior stands as a shameful reminder of how far the culture war has gone. This wasn’t satire. This wasn’t free speech. This was cruelty, cloaked in moral superiority.
Final Thoughts
Robert De Niro’s words were not just distasteful—they were a disgrace. And while freedom of speech allows him to speak his mind, freedom of opinion allows the public to reject him. Whether this marks the true end of De Niro’s career remains to be seen, but one thing is certain: this is a turning point.
The American people are watching. And they’re no longer laughing at celebrities who weaponize tragedy for applause.
