George Clooney, who starred in Ocean's Eleven, was criticized by former President Donald Trump for his recent opinion piece published in the New York Times. In the piece, Clooney begged President Joe Biden to withdraw from the 2024 presidential election.
“Crooked Joe Biden should ignore his many critics and move forward, with alacrity and strength, with his powerful and far-reaching campaign. He should be sharp, precise, and energetic, just like he was in the Debate,” Trump said in a recent post on Truth Social.
“So now fake movie actor George Clooney, who never came close to making a great movie, is getting into the act. He’s turned on Crooked Joe like the rats they both are,” the ex-FLOTUS added.
Trump called Clooney's understanding "about anything" into question and suggested that Clooney "get out of politics and go back to television."
“What does Clooney know about anything? He uses the Democrat ‘talking point’ that Biden, the WORST President in the history of the United States, has ‘saved our Democracy.’ No, Crooked Joe was the one who WEAPONIZED Law Enforcement against his political Opponent, who created the most devastating INFLATION in the history of our Country, who Embarrassed our Nation in Afghanistan, and whose crazy Open Border Policy has allowed millions of people to illegally pour into our Country, many from prisons and mental institutions,” Trump shared to his 6.9 million followers.
“Crooked Joe Biden didn’t save our Democracy, he brought our Democracy to its knees. Clooney should get out of politics and go back to television. Movies never really worked for him!!!” he furthered.
Clooney, who had been a vocal supporter of Biden in the weeks preceding the disastrous presidential debate that the United States president participated in, recently penned an opinion piece for the New York Times in which he questioned the president's ability to serve for another four years.
“I Love Joe Biden. But We Need a New Nominee,” the op-ed read.
“The one battle he cannot win is the fight against time. None of us can. It’s devastating to say it, but the Joe Biden I was with three weeks ago at the fund-raiser was not the Joe ‘big F-ing deal’ Biden of 2010. He wasn’t even the Joe Biden of 2020. He was the same man we all witnessed at the debate,” Clooney stated.
A rising number of prominent figures inside the Democratic party are pushing for Biden to withdraw from the race, and Clooney is the latest to join this increasing list, OK! Magazine reported.
"It’s time to stop f------- around. If the Convicted Felon wins, we lose our Democracy. Joe Biden has effectively served the US with honor, decency, and dignity. It’s time for Joe Biden to step down,” Princess Bride director Rob Reiner recently tweeted.
Reed Hastings, a co-founder of Netflix, Damon Lindelof, a TV showrunner, and Abigail Disney, an heir to Disney, have all made public statements in support of the Democratic party's decision to select a new nominee by the convention.
