I just can't take this fake media any longer! I'm an honest person, every day trying to find good in a sea of evil....
Robert De Niro also has a YouTube channel . " The Bobby Report"...so I took the bait...
Regardless...at least this reflected the reality of the trumpian speech...
Sorry....
Oh look her.... I went ahead and googled to see if the Bobby Report was real..... NOPE! It is not!

No, the YouTube channel "The Bobby Report" is not Robert De Niro's official channel. The channel description explicitly states that it uses AI to generate content in his likeness.
The videos on "The Bobby Report" use artificial intelligence to mimic Robert De Niro's face and voice to promote its messages, and the content is not authorized or created by the actor himself. Robert De Niro has no association with the channel.
