Robert De Niro decided once again to attack Donald Trump, calling the President a “lowlife” while appearing at the Annual Hudson River Park Gala.

Located at the Pier 62 in Manhattan, New York, the event saw the esteemed actor honoured and a bench dedicated to him.

“One of my pleasures will be keeping people off my bench who don’t deserve a view of the park like Donald Trump,” he said, according to New York Daily News.

"F**k you, Donald Trump,” he added. “It’s a horror with this motherf***er.”

Former Mayor of New York, Mike Bloomberg, joked after the speech: “It took me years before I finally got a sentence out of Bobby. He’s not a big talker.”

De Niro has a history of calling out Trump in public, saying during the campaign trail last year: “I'd like to punch Donald Trump in the face.”

Earlier this year, the two-time Oscar-winner recently called the President a “flat-out blatant racist”, adding: “If he was smart, he’d be even more dangerous. He’s dangerous as it is.”

Meanwhile, the latest news on Trump: Hilary Clinton has warned the world the Republican may fears he will attempt to launch a nuclear strike.
