Karoline Leavitt once again made the public stir when Robert De Niro exposed on a statement fully registered by the media. He no longer had the usual restriction in young politicians, she fiercely listed the veteran actor and director of Hollywood, called him “a bad in the artist” and declared: “Everyone deserves to know the truth.”
According to Leavitt, De Niro is not simply an artist with extremist political opinions, but also a symbol of arrogant culture, where celebrities think they can manipulate public opinion and trample anyone who does not agree with justice. She thinks that Niro has repeatedly used the media to attack conservative attacks is not “freedom of expression”, but an intentional campaign to cause social division.
Leavitt’s speech was done in a live interview, when asked about the influence of Hollywood’s culture on modern politics and social consciousness. While many politicians often avoid criticism of influential figures such as Niro, Leavitt decided to face. “He is not an honest artist as everyone thinks. He is a cunning director, taking advantage of glory to cover his deep intentions,” he said definitely.
The incident quickly became a hot topic on social media platforms. A large part of Internet users, especially young people and conservative trends, expressed their support for Leavitt. They see it as a new symbol, which is not afraid to “expose the truth” of the elite class that has existed too long without being challenged.
However, the reaction is not completely inclined to the side. Many people also criticized Leavitt for customizing the problem, saying that he used a personal attack strategy instead of focusing on the argument. Some cultural critics also warned that such speeches can increase polarization, which pushes society to unnecessary confrontation swirls between art and politics.
Whether lover or hating her, no one can deny that Karoline Leavitt increasingly affirms her position on the US political map. She not only represents the youngest generation that dares to say, dares to do, but also a character that makes the most powerful people do not ignore. And this time, the object to which he pointed was one of the most powerful names of cinema: Robert de Niro.
