Leftist Actor Robert De Niro - a frequent critic of former President Donald Trump - is worried that Trump is going to come looking for him if Trump wins the general election later this year.
De Niro made the confession during an appearance Friday on HBO's Real Time with Bill Maher.

During his HBO appearance, De Niro made several claims about what he believes would happen if Trump were to be reelected to the U.S.. presidency.
"If he wins the election, you won’t be on the show anymore. He’ll come looking for me. There’ll be things that happen that none of us can imagine," a paranoid-sounding De Niro said.
The actor went on to claim that a Trump victory would be a "nightmare" for America, and he, accordingly, called upon everyone to vote for President Joe Biden.
"We wanna live in a world that we want to live in and enjoy living in, or live in a nightmare? Vote for Trump and you’ll get the nightmare, vote for Biden and we’ll be back to normalcy," De Niro said.
He added, "I just don’t want to feel the way I did the many months after the election in 2016, where we couldn’t believe that it happened."
This is how De Niro described Trump. The actor also referred to the former president as "a sociopath."
If you know anything about De Niro, then none of this will come as a surprise. Trump usually just ignores De Niro and others of De Niro's ilk. But, the former president did decide to target De Niro with a social media post that Trump released in December.
"Robert De Niro, whose acting talents have greatly diminished, with his reputation now shot, must even use a teleprompter for his foul and disgusting language, so disrespectful to our Country," Trump wrote.
He continued, "He has become unwatchable both in movies, and with the FOOLS that destroyed the Academy Awards, bringing them from one of the top shows in the Country to a Low Rated afterthought. De Niro should focus on his life, which is a mess, rather than the lives of others. He has become a total loser, as the World watches, waits, and laughs!"
We'll leave it to you, the reader, to decide what's more accurate - De Niro's assessment of Trump or Trump's assessment of De Niro.
