Robert DeNiro yells 'f*** Trump' TWICE during a foul-mouthed tirade on stage at the Tony Awards and gets a standing ovation

Television audiences get bleeped version and wonder what they missed

DeNiro walked out and said 'I’m just going to say one thing, and that's f*** Trump'

The audience leapt to it's feet, and cheered the statement while the actor, 74, pumped his fists

THEN he said 'its no longer 'down with Trump', its 'f*** Trump' and the audience cheered again

Robert DeNiro yelled 'f*** Trump' during a foul-mouthed rant at the Tony Awards and got a standing ovation.

The audience went wild, some rising to their feet. DeNiro pumped his fists triumphantly.

The outburst was bleeped, so Broadway fans watching at home didn't hear the expletive.

He hasn't been relevant since Good Fellas that was the last Great movie he ever made. The last good movie was Casino. Joe Peche was his better half. WIthout Joe acting beside him, he does bullcrap Soyflicks.

He's trying to stay relevant...

Good for DeNiro. I’m loving this. Seriously.

Him going on crazed rants, Kathy gifford holding up bloody heads, Bill Maher telling tens of millions that he hopes that they lose their jobs and homes because his team didn’t win, and the cherry on top, Hillary’s Clinton international whine tour where she’s apologizing for America....

I mean, is it any wonder how the polls went from +9 points to a statistical tie in 5 short months?

Keep it coming I say.

You need to check your polls again.



Dems back up to +8.2 after a dip last month.

Well I'm glad the polls dipped just enough to allow the GOP to take two seats in California and NOT lose any of the 4 primaries the DNC said they were targeting to flip, and will likely lose at least one more seat in November. Thank goodness for that temporary dip.



Whewww! Blue Wave! Blue wave!

You forgot to mention the 40 point swing in MO allowing a Dem state senator to win the special election. Why didn't you mention that one?

I'll take 2 for 1 all day long. Is this the blue wave you were expecting?

I'd like to see a health care system that takes the best of what works around the world. Better outcomes for 1/2 the cost.

How about that?

How does every other 1st World country do it?

Paying for it would be the easy part! You're cutting the cost in half. The better questions is--"what should we do with the savings?"

I don't know.

How do they do it? How would that translate to the USA? It seems like you know how it would be done. Care to explain?

It's not rocket science. They don't have insurance companies mucking everything up and adding profits at multiple steps along the way. They don't have perverse incentives for Drs to overprescribe medication and diagnostic testing. If you're really interested, there are a LOT of articles that detail what works and what doesn't work w.r.t. healthcare.

(spoiler--the US system doesn't work)

"They don't have insurance companies mucking everything up and adding profits at multiple steps along the way." - So how do they pay for it?

"They don't have perverse incentives for Drs to overprescribe medication and diagnostic testing." - How do they prevent those "incentives"?

Here we go with the State races again! Republicans are so dominant on the State Level they pretty much can only lose seats at this point.

State ain't Federal! And comparing Special Election State Legislature Battles to the Presidency is laughable.

"Nevermind our performance in Fed Special Elections have been underwhelming. We won a State Seat in Upper New Katmandu!"

I was responding to Goran's posts about R's winning state races.

But I would love to discuss Dems performance in Federal special elections. They're outperforming by about 15% on average.

I'm not sure what you're even asking. Like do people pay with cash or with a credit card? I don't know.

They pay much LESS than we do.

Also, you're borderline breaking one of the new rules implemented by @Patrick.

Uh, OK. I honestly don't know what you are asking. Are you saying how can they afford it? Or what method of payment do they use? Or how is the money collected?

Are you trying to make a point about taxes? Who cares whether one pays via deductible, co-pay, or taxes? The total cost is all that matters.

Example answers would be raising taxes, what kind and on whom. The assertion that other countries do it successfully is false they have similar problems and often worse care. State of The art care is often not reimbursed like in the US. Care for elderly is rationed etc.

But it wouldn't be a tax increase. We'd be cutting costs.

All independent studies show the same thing. US healthcare system produces worse outcomes for double the cost of most other countries. That is a fact.

It's amazing that these counties achieve better outcomes with all this supposed "rationing". How do you think that is possible?

I'm asking you who pays, and if it's different depending on who you are (e.g - $100,000 earners vs $30,000 earners). mell got what I was getting at immediately, for some reason you seemed to avoid the point entirely.

Wonder why.

That's not what the studies show, in fact it is commonly understood that the US has pretty much for any condition a monopoly on the best therapies out there. That is a fact. What you're referring to is relative outcome and this is influence by many factors. The reason the US system is expensive is mainly because it is the number one country for unnecessary surgeries (of course countries that ration their healthcare do less of those and in the best case may save on many while disadvantaging few), unnecessary medications and generally unhealthy lifestyles. These things have to be addressed but you don't want to end up in Canada, UK or any other country with inferior healthcare with a legitimate condition that would be easily addressed in the US and reimbursed by insurance. Also, there are some benefits in giving access to basic healthcare to everybody in preventing the worst outcomes for easily treatable conditions that a patient without healthcare in the US may not seek because they cannot afford it. Easy wins in terms of statistics (child mortality or other acute conditions). None of that makes their systems better for the individual and most experience similar inflation and of course the questions remains: if you give the same excellent healthcare (better than most if not all other countries) that the US currently provides for those employed: who is going to pay for this?

And the US spends tremendous amounts on end of life care and procedures that are not going to prolong life to any significant degree, but are required under guidelines of senior living centers. My neighbor was placed in one of the most expensive assisted living centers in town because her late second husband, who was 22 years her senior was well off and died 21 years before she did after a brief illness and had provided handsomely for her, after she was well past the ability to care for herself. After six months, she was under 100% care and had to be restrained at all times. Yet she lived another two years like that and when she'd have a medical emergency, she was rushed to ICU where the meter started running--she finally passed away after three such occasions. In a more sensible climate, she would probably have been allowed to die a normal death of whatever the emergency consisted.

No money for health care but we have money to kill and maim people. No money to take care of our wounded "heroes" either when they return from nation building misadventures.

Bingo !


You mean the Democrats who started proxy wars in Syria, and Libya?

Can only assume he means the D and R establishment who are equally guilty for wars and terrible healthcare.

It's interesting how we can all identify the same problem, yet some refuse to blame those responsible.

R's and D's are the same team.
