Steve Buscemi Controversies

Steve Buscemi is a well-known American actor. Despite his success, he has been in a couple of controversies.  

The first controversy happened in 2017 when Buscemi acted in the movie "The Death of Stalin." His co-star, Jeffrey Tambor, faced accusations of misconduct, leading to questions about why Buscemi and director Armando Iannucci didn't replace Tambor in the film. 

Steve defended his choice to work with Tambor, saying the allegations against him seemed milder compared to those against Donald Trump. Iannucci also supported Tambor's performance.

Buscemi admitted that Biden wasn't the most inspiring politician but believed he was acceptable given the challenges during the Trump administration. This sparked debates, with some feeling Steve was being too lenient on Biden.
