Addressing to the Kamala’s supporters, The Irishman actor noted, “I’m very optimistic about it all.”
He continued, “I’m very excited, but to me, it ain’t over till it’s over. So we can’t for one second think that we’re ahead of this thing. We just have to be on it all the time until the very end because they’re going to try everything when the election day comes.”
“When will these things be final? What will they question? What will they play games about? We know it’s coming; we see it coming. We have to just be ever vigilant, and it’s not over till it’s over,” he added.
Robert De Niro expressed his desire for a peaceful transition of power if the Democratic ticket of Kamala Harris and Tim Walz succeeds over the Republican ticket of Donald Trump and JD Vance, specifically hoping to avoid a repetition of the violent January 6.
“Hopefully, if God willing that it’s Kamala and Walz, that the ones who make the big thing and what happened [on] January 6, I think people will think twice about doing something about that no matter what Trump says, because … people pay a price, and is it worth it for them? Especially following someone like him? You know, it’s just insane,” he noted.
