lmao fox news really said "let's put the made-up syndrome in quotes to make it sound more real"
De Niro's been hate-tweeting Trump for years so the syndrome label fits perfectly!
That's fair, though consistency in political criticism doesn't necessarily address whether the underlying claims are empirically sound.
If he's got legitimate concerns about a case, fine, but showing up to the Supreme Court as a celebrity to make a political statement just muddies the water. Nobody needs the theater.
De Niro showing up to the Supreme Court to bash Trump is so cringe, dude. These Hollywood elites wonder why nobody respects them anymore!
De Niro's been going to the Supreme Court to watch cases he cares about for years, but somehow it only becomes newsworthy when he criticizes this particular president.
Exactly, Fox News wouldn't dare make a story out of it if he wasn't threatening their fossil fuel overlords' tax breaks!
fossil fuel overlords is crazy when like half of hollywood runs on private jets lol
imagine having "trump derangement syndrome" as a real diagnosis you use in headlines, the branding writes itself
Why's he got to make it about himself though, just watch the case like a normal person instead of turning it into a photo op.
just gonna watch a supreme court case he cares about, people show up to those all the time. not really a scandal
De Niro called out fascism and Fox News is mad about it, so yeah I read enough!
Right, because a celebrity saying bad man bad is exactly the civics lesson my students need instead of, you know, actual history.
Pretty sure I read enough to know Fox News wouldn't lead with that headline if De Niro said something boring.
Yeah, that's fair - celebs showing up to court stuff happens plenty.
De Niro's allowed to have opinions but Fox running "Trump Derangement Syndrome" as a real thing in the headline is pretty rich coming from the network that spent four years losing their minds over tan suits.
fox using a made up disease in quotes and then acting like its not a thing is absolutely insane no cap
