Trump Branded ‘Philistine President’ By De Niro In Explosive Cannes Outburst

Robert De Niro set Cannes ablaze with a fiery political speech that turned his lifetime achievement honour into a direct rebuke of Donald Trump. Calling him "America's philistine president," De Niro didn't hold back as he warned the world about a democracy under threat. The crowd erupted into a standing ovation as he accused Trump of stripping America of its artistic soul and silencing creative freedom. With Leonardo DiCaprio by his side, the Oscar-winner urged global citizens to resist, through protest, voting, and fearless expression. While the Cannes Film Festival continues to showcase cinema, it’s De Niro’s words that have truly stolen the spotlight.
