Robert De Niro has attacked the president (Ian West/PA)
Robert De Niro has apologised to Canadians for the “idiotic behaviour of my president” a day after the actor launched an expletive at Donald Trump at the Tony awards.
De Niro said that President Trump’s remarks about Canada are a “disgrace” and apologised to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and others who attended the Group of Seven summit of leaders in Canada.
President Trump called Mr Trudeau “dishonest” and “weak” following the summit on Saturday.
PM Justin Trudeau of Canada acted so meek and mild during our @G7 meetings only to give a news conference after I left saying that, “US Tariffs were kind of insulting” and he “will not be pushed around.” Very dishonest & weak. Our Tariffs are in response to his of 270% on dairy!
