Robert De Niro urges support for Harris at Philadelphia Eagles tailgate
Actor Robert De Niro on Sunday urged fans to support Vice President Harris while attending a tailgate for the Philadelphia Eagles football team in the key battleground state of Pennsylvania.
De Niro and former Secretary of State John Kerry were seen talking with voters ahead of the Eagles’ game against the Jacksonville Jaguars.
In a video shared to the Kamala for PA social media account on X, De Niro is seen with a microphone talking about retired Gen. John Kelly, Donald Trump’s former chief of staff, who who has come out against the former president.
“His former chief of staff General Kelly reminded us that Trump admires Hitler and ridicules our American troops who died for us. He mumbles, he stumbles, and blubbers on exhibiting clear signs of dementia. He promoted the Project 2025 agenda,” De Niro said.
“That’s all in one week. All in one week!” he continued.
De Niro then went on to highlight Harris’s plans for the country.
“She’s got a plan to help workers in the middle class with an opportunity economy. She’ll lower their taxes. Trump will raise them,” he said.
The actor highlighted a message from one of Harris’s last campaign advertisements, her pledge to be a president for all Americans.
“It seems like a clear choice, right? Election Day is upon us. We can’t let up now,” De Niro said. “It’s time to make one final push and elect Vice President Harris and Democrats up and down the ballot.”
De Niro has hit the campaign trail for Harris in the past. In September, he said Trump is not running with the right intentions and highlighted President Biden stepping down from the race as “selfless patriotism.”
