Robert De Niro let loose again with some fierce criticism of President Donald Trump .

The two-time Oscar-winner used Wednesdays press preview of the 17th annual Tribeca Film Festival in New York to take aim at Trump and he bestowed another insulting new nickname on the president.

The country has had a bad year and you, the press, have taken a lot of hits, De Niro told reporters covering the event, per Deadline.

De Niro said America was being run by a madman who wouldnt recognize the truth if it came inside a bucket of his beloved Colonel Sanders Fried Chicken. He dubbed Trump our lowlife-in-chief.

De Niro portrayed special counsel Robert Mueller , who is investigating Russian interference in the 2016 election, to hilarious effect on Saturday Night Live last weekend.
