Clooney hopes Trump presidency won’t spawn ‘terrible things’

George Clooney didn’t vote for Donald Trump and doesn’t think he’s the right choice to run the United States.

But he hopes Trump succeeds in office, because “when the president of the United States fails, really terrible things happen.”

Clooney is one of the most politically outspoken actors in Hollywood, and he defended fellow star Meryl Streep on Monday after the president-elect slammed her for comments at the Golden Globe Awards.

Trump tweeted that Streep is “overrated” and a “flunky” of Hillary Clinton.

Clooney said that “I support her right forever” to speak out.

At reception in London for Syria rescue-workers documentary “The White Helmets,” the actor said he has been active in politics since he was 12 — and has no intention of stopping just because he is famous.

Meryl Streep is an excellent actress.

Obviously, you haven't been to the movies lately.

We’re hoping Clooney the Looney won’t either!

BTW, Clooney claimed we should call Obama, President Obama, because everyone should respect the office. I wonder if he will call Trump, President Trump.

If terrible things happen, it will be because the immature leftists in this country can’t control their emotions.

The best thing to do is IGNORE George Clooney, Streep and anyone else who is being amplified by the media SOLELY due to their wealth, privilege, celebrity, their ability to act-out lines written by someone else, and to look good on a movie poster.

***
Exactly.

Apparently Hollywood types, singers, and other entertainment folks are not adult enough to comprehend that the people have voted....

***
But you forget that they are famous. Since they are famous they must be so smart, much smarter than we are.

“I support her right forever” to lie.

Clooney’s parents spawned a “terrible thing”.

Clooney is another Follywood loser, past his best use by date.

“Clooney said that “I support her right forever” to speak out.”

And I’m sure if his plumber decided to spout off conservative politics while fixing George’s pipes George would be pleased to listen. Shut up and just do your over-paid “job”!
