During a recent appearance on The View, Robert De Niro sparked controversy after being muted twice while delivering a harsh critique on the former President and conservative values.

The 80-year-old actor compared Trump to notorious dictators Adolf Hitler and Benito Mussolini, warning that if he gets re-elected would signal dire consequences for the country. His comments were so intense that the show’s producers muted him twice, with De Niro even apologizing for his language before continuing his rant.
