President Donald Trump hit back Tuesday at Robert DeNiro for his attacks during the live Tony Awards telecast Sunday, calling the Oscar-winning actor "very low IQ" and "punch drunk."
"Robert De Niro, a very Low IQ individual, has received [too] many shots to the head by real boxers in movies," Trump said in a pair of tweets, most likely referring to his 1980 role as Jake LaMotta in "Raging Bull."
DeNiro "f-bombed" the president twice from the stage of Radio City Music Hall while introducing Bruce Springsteen, who earlier received a Tony for his show currently running on Broadway.
His comments were bleeped by CBS, which carried the ceremony, though they brought a standing ovation from the audience.
DeNiro was later bashed for bowing to name-calling at the event.
The Tonys celebrate the finest in Broadway over the previous season.
De Niro apologized Monday — but on America's behalf to Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, whom Trump ripped Saturday as "very dishonest and weak" after the U.S. refused to sign the joint communique from global leaders attending the Group of Seven summit in Quebec.
"I just want to make a note of apology for the idiotic behavior of my president," De Niro said in Toronto at the groundbreaking of the Canadian Nobu restaurant, where he was dining with celebrity chef and business partner Nobu Matsuhisa, according to The Globe and Mail.
"It's a disgrace," the actor said. "And I apologize to Justin Trudeau and the other people at the G7.
"It's disgusting."
