Robert DeNiro says he is banning Trump from his restaurants

The Hill:

Robert De Niro, a frequent critic of President Trump who has been playing special counsel Robert Mueller on "Saturday Night Live," talked Tuesday about how he'd like to bar the president from eating at his Nobu restaurant chain.

The Daily Mail reported that De Niro, a co-founder of the Nobu restaurant and hotel chain, insisted that he would not let Trump eat in his restaurants, and that he would leave any other eatery where the president entered.

“If he walked into a restaurant I was in, I’d walk out,” De Niro said.

But DeNiro won’t get the satisfaction of tossing Trump out, since it’s onky Big Macs and chicken buckets.

The Lowlife-in-Chief (DeNiro's nickname for DT) probably wouldn't eat at one of Robert DeNiro's restaurants, but if he did, DeNiro would get a lot of business - not only from the LiC, but his coterie of hangers-on, press, and secret service.

Plus, the LiC like a pig.

Good business, plus you would get the opportunity to spill hot coffee on his lap.

But I understand DeNiro's disgust.

I’m sure that in a city of 8 plus million that would be a few million customers. Great business move because it’ll keep any Deplorables away too.

I don't think you need to worry about him eating at your restaurants anytime soon.
