President Donald Trump may have committed treason. But Robert De Niro said f*ck on television (again). So the crowd that defended the reality-TV star turned national nightmare's right to say "Grab 'em by the pussy" are pretty riled up. After all, think of the children (who were watching CNN on Sunday morning)!

Here's what De Niro said.

Here's how Twitter reacted.

disgraceful that they allowed the interview to continue. Like him or hate him, he is still the President of the US.

It's kind of embarrassing when your grandparents start in with the potty mouth. They are supposed to be the people in our lives we look to for wisdom. Sadly De Niro's mental decline is getting the best of him. He's losing his vocabulary.

Conservatives: Political correctness is over! We can say whatever the fuck we want.

Robert De Niro: Fuck Donald Trump and fuck Fox News.

Conservatives: No, not like that

I like De Niro's CNN statement for many reasons, and yes, his pithy intonation on "fuck 'em" is tasty, but what's best is how shrugging and offhand he is: he's not pretending there's anything daring or subversive about his words, as opposed to something obvious that needs saying.

You invite Robert De Niro on your show, you get Robert De Niro https://t.co/AwYPJs3X7W

Y'all, it's really this simple: if you think Robert De Niro saying "fuck 'em" in response to fascists is more profane than literal fascists undermining the integrity of our constitutional framework, you don't understand profanity.

Donald Trump's day so far:

- Calls Ed Henry a "lying shit head"
- Chris Wallace destroys Stephen Miller
- Former Trump cabinet member Tom Bossert turns against him
- Team Trump is falling apart
- Robert De Niro says "fuck em"
- Trump is going to prison
- It's still only 1:30pm
