Mickey Rourke called President Donald Trump a “f***ot” and attacked the administration for “separating thousands of children from their families.”
“This is a country founded by immigrants, Chinese, Irish, Italian, Puertorican [sic], Cuban…but what’s going on now with that f***ot and his administration in the White House separating thousand of children from their families, most especially very young children 5 years and younger, children which is still breastfeeding, now it’s a big mess…” the 65-year-old actor captioned his post on Instagram, shared Thursday by a Daily Beast reporter. The post has since been deleted.

“Family can’t find their children and it’s a really big mess,” he added. “It’s not right what this garbage can sitting in a White House is doing to the children and their families. Not everyone who crosses the border illegally is a killer or a drug dealer.”

“I remember growing up in Miami when the Cubans first came over, they were treated like second-class citizens,” he continued. “They treated Cubans like shit. Now the Cubans own Miami and it’s a better city for it.”
“There is nothing very united about the United States,” Rourke wrote. “People don’t even like their next-door neighbor. Black and white don’t get alone [g]. Red and yellow really don’t have opinion, everyones out for themselves. United is just a word that sounds good.”
