拜登竞选团队周二派遣演员劳勃·狄·尼诺和两名曾在2021年1月6日为美国国会大厦辩护的前警察哈里·邓恩和迈克尔·范内传达他们认为前总统唐纳德·特朗普对美国构成的威胁。
在曼哈顿法院附近对记者说川普的刑事封口费审判德尼罗说，特朗普“希望播下全面混乱的种子”。
纽约人德尼罗称特朗普是一个“小丑”，他的总统任期可能会给美国人带来危险。他说，纽约人曾经容忍特朗普，但现在认为他是一个威胁。
“我爱这座城市。我不想毁掉它。唐纳德·特朗普不仅想摧毁这座城市，还想摧毁这个国家，最终他可以摧毁世界，”德尼罗说。
在拜登竞选团队的新闻发布会上，特朗普竞选团队高级顾问杰森·米勒回击称，拜登竞选团队攻击特朗普的最佳方式是“推出一位过气演员”
德尼罗说，如果“特朗普重返白宫，你就可以和这些我们都认为理所当然的自由吻别了。”
德尼罗最近为拜登竞选团队的一则反特朗普广告发声。他说，他同意参与广告“因为它展示了特朗普的暴力行为，并提醒我们他会对任何阻碍他的自大狂和贪婪的人使用暴力。”
邓恩和范内都在1月6日为国会大厦进行了辩护，并且是执法部门中最直言不讳谴责袭击的成员之一。他们都是国会调查1月6日袭击事件的证人。
邓恩本月早些时候竞选国会议员失败，失去了代表马里兰州第三国会选区的民主党初选。邓恩称特朗普是“我们民主的最大威胁”。
邓恩说:“唐纳德·特朗普是当今对我们的民主和全国各地社区安全的最大威胁。“就在今天，我们被称为叛徒。我们在1月6日都被称为叛徒，因为我们做了我们的工作，”邓恩说。
范内曾是华盛顿的一名警察被暴徒袭击1月6日，他因袭击而心脏病发作。
法诺内说:“我今天来到这里是为了提醒美国人唐纳德·特朗普的能力以及他在2021年1月6日对所有美国人发动的暴力。
周二的露面标志着拜登竞选团队首次在曼哈顿下城的法院外参与任何活动。过去三周，特朗普竞选团队每天都有代理人在法院附近的Collect Pond公园代表前总统发言。
在特朗普竞选团队的反驳过程中，米勒批评了拜登支持者的外表。
“拜登一家终于做到了。米勒说:“几个月来，他们一直说政治与这次审判无关，但他们出现了，把特朗普总统的审判日变成了一场竞选活动。”
Robert De Niro, former police officers slam Trump outside New York hush money trial
The Biden campaign on Tuesday dispatched actor Robert De Niro and two former police officers who defended the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021 -- Harry Dunn and Michael Fanone -- to convey the threat they argued former President Donald Trump poses to the country.
Speaking to reporters near the Manhattan courthouse whereTrump's criminal hush money trialis taking place, De Niro said Trump "wants to sow total chaos."
De Niro, a New Yorker, called Trump a "clown" whose presidency could be dangerous for Americans. He said New Yorkers once tolerated Trump, but now recognize him as a threat.
"I love this city. I don't want to destroy it. Donald Trump wants to destroy not only the city, but the country, and eventually he can destroy the world," De Niro said.
At a press conference following the Biden campaign's, Trump campaign senior adviser Jason Miller shot back, saying the best the Biden campaign could do in attacking Trump was to "roll out a washed-up actor."
De Niro said that if "Trump returns to the White House, you can kiss these freedoms goodbye that we all take for granted."
De Niro recently voiced an anti-Trump ad for the Biden campaign. He said he agreed to participate in the ad "because it shows the violence of Trump and reminds us that he'll use violence against anyone who stands in the way of his megalomania and greed."
Dunn and Fanone both defended the Capitol on Jan. 6, and have been some of the most outspoken members of law enforcement to condemn the attacks. They were both witnesses during the congressional investigation of the Jan. 6 attacks.
Dunn -- who failed in his bid for Congress earlier this month, losing the Democratic primary to represent Maryland's 3rd Congressional District -- called Trump the "greatest threat to our democracy."
"Donald Trump is the greatest threat to our democracy and the safety of communities across the country today," Dunn said. "We've been called traitors, just today. We were all called traitors on Jan. 6 for doing our job," Dunn said.
Fanone, who was a D.C. police officer, wasassaulted by rioterson Jan. 6 and suffered a heart attack from the assault.
"I came here today to remind Americans of what Donald Trump is capable of and the violence that he unleashed on all of Americans on Jan. 6, 2021," Fanone said.
Tuesday's appearance marked the first time the Biden campaign has engaged in any activity outside the courthouse in lower Manhattan. The Trump campaign has had surrogates in the Collect Pond Park near the courthouse every day for the past three weeks speaking on behalf of the former president.
During the Trump campaign's rebuttal, Miller criticized the Biden supporters' appearance.
"The Biden folks have finally done it. After months of saying politics had nothing to do with this trial, they showed up and made a campaign event out of a trial day for President Trump," Miller said.
