Robert De Niro took a thinly veiled dig at Donald Trump at the opening night of Tribeca Festival on Wednesday. The Oscar-winner used his time at the podium to talk about Tribeca’s mission as a festival formed in the wake of 9/11 to shine a spotlight on a part of the city that had been devastated by the terrorist attack.

“We’ve always recognized the power of storytelling to pull people together,” De Niro said.
