Another non-fan of Celebrity Apprentice’s Donald Trump has spoken up about his ‘tactics’ regarding his Presidential bid and the hunt for President Barack Obama’s birth certificate. You may have heard of him? Robert DeNiro?

The legend that is Robert DeNiro was interviewed by Brian Williams’ during the Tribeca Film Festival Saturday and shared his thoughts without naming names:

“I won’t mention any of the certain people on the news in the last couple weeks,” De Niro said, after Williams mentioned how far apart the country has become politically. “But what are we doing? This is crazy. They’re making statements about people that they don’t even back up. Go get the facts before you start saying things about people.”

Williams and Trump both have shows on NBC which Williams asked DeNiro if perhaps it’s someone who shares networks, obviously alluding to Trump. The 67 year old actor went on to say:

“It’s like a big hustle. It’s like being a car salesman,” answered De Niro. “Don’t go out there and say things unless you can back them up. How dare you? That’s awful to do. To just go out there and speak and say these terrible things?”

Not being one to sit quietly by while someone insults him, Trump of course had to hurl his own insults:

“I like his acting, but in terms of when I watch him doing interviews and various other things, we’re not dealing with Albert Einstein,” Trump told Fox & Friends Monday. “He can say what he wants, but the fact is that this guy has not revealed his birth certificate, a lot of people agree with me.” According to Fox News, Trump went on to say the actor is “not the brightest bulb on the planet.”

Are you talking to me? DeNiro may not be Albert Einstein (nor would he ever claim to be), but he doesn’t have fish lips or really bad hair either. I’ll take famous combovers for $500 Alex.
