I mean don’t get me wrong, Erickson is awful but unlike Ben he actually does criticize Trump rather than weasel like Ben does. I’d love to hear from Mr. JD Breitbart Law how DeNiro one of the most preparatory actors for his role is dumb but Trump isn’t. You can take Ben out of Breitbart but not the Breitbart outta Ben.

Trump the Reality TV star only had to be himself to act his role. DeNiro the professional actor had to prepare himself for each role he’s taken on — as does every other decent actor — because THAT’S THEIR JOB. You don’t win an Oscar for just being yourself.

I’m always been impressed by actors/actresses who gain or lose a substantial amount of weight for a part, who train hours a day for physically demanding roles, learn new languages, hang out with doctors or cops or soldiers to learn all the nuances of those jobs, etc. Like any career, acting requires hard work to stay at the top of your game.
