Robert De Niro’s remarks on “11th Hour with Stephanie Ruhle” on MSNBC were recently addressed by Elon Musk.

In the interview, De Niro compared Trump to Hitler and Mussolini, two infamous historical personalities, and implied that Trump’s reelection will cause anarchy.

Musk took to his social media platform X to condemn De Niro’s comparison, arguing that the four years of Trump’s presidency were not comparable to the totalitarian regimes of Hitler or Mussolini.

“It doesn’t make sense,” he said, “because Trump was already president for four years and his policies were completely different from Hitler’s.” Also, Musk brought up the Abraham Accords, bringing attention to how Trump’s actions differed greatly from what Hitler would have endorsed.

De Niro has made no secret of his distaste for Trump and the threats he represents to the United States. He said, “I don’t understand it,” indicating his perplexity about why some voters may think about voting for Trump again. I really doubt that they grasp the gravity of the situation should he ever, heaven forbid, assume the presidency. It seems like they have no idea.
