De Niro: I want to love my country again [fsJKPXgRPSC]
Actor Robert De Niro said the U.S. "isn't so lovable right now" under President Trump's leadership as he spoke at the "Rise Up, Sing Out" protest concert in New York City. "I hate to say it, but loving our country is starting to sound like an abused spouse saying they love their abuser," he said Sunday night. "I can't love a country that's led by a racist, misogynist, xenophobic tyrant. And let me just say it, I can't love the country that's led by Donald Trump. And a sycophant Congress." "For most of my life, of course, I did love this country," he added. "The United States of America welcomed my immigrant ancestors. It gave me, my family, and my fellow citizens such rich opportunities and extraordinary freedoms. I want to love my country again. I want my country back." #robertdeniro #cspan
