"They should actually get on a boat with Trump Deranged Robert De Niro, another sick and demented person with, I believe, an extremely Low IQ, who has absolutely no idea what he is doing or saying — some of which is seriously CRIMINAL!" Trump wrote.
"When I watched him break down in tears last night, much like a child would do, I realized that he may be even sicker than Crazy Rosie O’Donnell, who is right now in Ireland trying to figure out how to come back into our beautiful United States," the president said. "The only difference between De Niro and Rosie is that she is probably somewhat smarter than him, which isn’t saying much."
The blistering post followed a highly contentious State of the Union address in which Omar repeatedly interrupted Trump’s remarks on border security and homeland funding.
At several points during the speech, she shouted, "You are a murderer" and "You’re a liar," as the president discussed immigration enforcement and accused Democrats of cutting funding for the Department of Homeland Security.

At one point during their outbursts, Tlaib shouted that "Alex wasn’t a criminal," in apparent reference to Alex Pretti — an armed man shot and killed by federal agents amid immigration protest chaos in Minneapolis.
Later in the evening, Omar and Tlaib prematurely left the chamber while Trump was recounting the raid on Caracas that captured Venezuelan dictator Nicolás Maduro.
Fox News Digital reached out to Omar, Tlaib and De Niro for comment and has yet to receive replies.
