This is really starting to become fun.
Today Vermont's Peter Welch (D) became the first US Senator to call for Joe Biden to end his bid for reelection. Welch joins a growing democrat cacophony calling for Biden to get out of the way. democrats are deeply divided about Biden's future. Pelosi, Schumer and Nadler are behind Biden while many others have joined the call for his departure. Schumer is now apparently leaning the other way. But that wasn't even close to the best of the news. George Clooney penned an opinion piece in the NY Times calling for Biden to bail out.
"We are not going to win in November with this president," Clooney wrote. "On top of that, we won't win the House, and we're going to lose the Senate. This isn't only my opinion; this is the opinion of every senator and Congress member and governor who I've spoken with in private."And then the "confession"
"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 wrote. "He wasn't even the Joe Biden of 2020. He was the same man we all witnessed at the debate."This comes three weeks after Clooney headed a star-studded celebrity fundraiser which generated $28 million for Biden. "Obama bro" Jon Favreau said he saw the same thing as Clooney.
"I remember my wife, Emily, turned to me after the fundraiser and said, ‘What are we going to do?’ And I said, ‘Well, there is a debate in a week. Either he’ll do well in the debate, and we'll think he was just tired because he flew all the way back from Europe, and that'll be that, or he'll be like this at the debate and then the whole country will be talking about it. So, here we are."In his article Clooney wrote this disingenuous sentence:
Clooney wrote that Democrat Party leaders needed to stop trying to convince Americans they "didn't see what we just saw," and accused them of ignoring "warning signs" concerning Biden.Didn't see what we just saw? Ignoring warning signs?
Shouldn't Clooney have said something immediately and not three weeks later when the excrement hit the fan? Didn't Clooney see Obama taking Biden by the hand and leading him off the stage? A whole lot of us have been writing as loud as we can that Biden is unfit for office for a long time. The White House wasted no time slapping back at Biden.
The Biden-Harris campaign clapped back at George Clooney after the actor called for President Joe Biden to be replaced as the Democratic Party’s nominee in a New York Times op-ed posted on Wednesday. The camp flexed that Biden stayed at the event three hours longer than Clooney and that the actor merely took a photo and dipped.What's going on here is Clooney trying to save his own ass. He's seen ire heaped upon Jeffrey Katzenberg, the Hollywood mogul has been accused of "age-washing" Biden.“The President stayed for over three hours, while Clooney took a photo quickly and left,” Biden’s team said in a statement to the New York Times. Biden’s campaign’s remarks are referring to the length of Clooney’s attendance at fundraiser the actor threw for the president a couple of weeks back on June 15 in Los Angeles.
Hollywood’s Democratic powerbrokers were in civil war over Joe Biden’s 2024 re-election bid Friday as his top fundraiser was accused of “agewashing” the embattled president.Katzenberg is now ducking themA group of studio bosses, agents and billionaires more used to fighting over Oscars than politics was engaged in a feud, with vast amounts of cash for Biden and other Democrats on the line.
They pursued it by briefing, often anonymously, against their common enemy—Biden’s cheerleader Jeffrey Katzenberg, the former DreamWorks CEO and co-founder of the ill-fated Quibi. He had assumed the mantle of Biden’s fundraiser-in-chief with particular fervor. “Age is his superpower,” he was known for saying about Biden, drawing parallels to the enduring careers of octogenarians like Harrison Ford and Mick Jagger.
Katzenberg’s legendary fundraisers, often star-studded affairs featuring the likes of George Clooney and Barbra Streisand, have pulled in millions for the campaign. When donors expressed anxiety over Biden’s rumored loss of attention, he would offer to put them in a room together to see for themselves.He's not the only one. Dan Goldman could not run fast enough from a Fox News reporter and Nancy Pelosi dissed a black woman reporter who got under her skin.Katzenberg has been silent since Biden’s catastrophic debate performance. Attempts to reach him were passed off to a Biden staffer who wrote back “It’s July fourth.”
The fact is that Biden, Biden's team, the left-wing Biden media whores, Hollywood celebrities and democrats have all been lying to America. It was Biden's own choice to have the debate that pulled the curtains back and proved that the emperor has no clothes.

Ever so slowly the pot is starting to boil.
BTTT
Yeah, wasn't "Indiana Jones 4" just great? And Jagger's latest concert, wherein he praised Trudeau - wasn't that well received?
Age is his kryptonite!

Perhaps the Democrat Socialists, at their convention in August, should substitute George Clooney for Joe Biden on the ticket. One way to shut up a critic is to give them the job.
Talk the talk, now get out there and walk the walk.
Walk a mile in another man’s shoes, you’ll be a mile away and have his shoes.
“On top of that, we won’t win the House, and we’re going to lose the Senate.”
I hope he is the holly wood Nastro domus.
How much did Clooney make for hosting this? Any educated guesses? Do these hosts get a percentage or flat fee for a celebrity appearance?
Shouldn’t Clooney have said something immediately and not three weeks later when the excrement hit the fan?

No, because Cloony would have had to go out on a limb, all by himself, and claim Biden wasn’t fit, against the collusive and powerful wishes of the MSM, the deep state, and all of his hollywood peers.
NO WAY he has the brass ones to do that.
After the debate, at least there was a bandwagon to jump on.
The real question is, there were people out there (a number of them here on FR) who were sounding the alarm in 2019, and in the years intervening.
If anyone wants to monday-morning, armchair quarterback what’s finally going on now, maybe they should have the integrity to acknowledge those who were screaming in the wilderness for so long.
Anyone even halfway paying attention knew Joetato had been a doddering old fool for a long, long time. This acting surprised act is a blatant lie.
This has been fun, watching Democrats, their allies in the media, and Hollywood idiots, trying to grapple with all of this business with Biden.
The phrase "In The Best Interest Of America" seems to be just like holy water as the democrats are concerned. They deserve Joe Biden; America deserves better.
The Radical Left Democrat Party doesn't just discourage free speech among the rank and file. It doesn't permit free speech ANYWHERE...particularly when such free speech includes negative comments about the Party leadership.
The very fact that loyal members of the Party (including major donors) are engaging in free speech will be devastating to the Party's tight control of its members. How will the Party get that free speech Genie back in the bottle?
Can you imagine what would happen to the CCP if people all over China were laughing at Xi and suggesting he step down?
Control of the people is the foundation of Marxism. Can it even exist is there is a major loss of control?
I’m surprised these idiots haven’t hawked for their donations returned due to fraud.
Clapped-back, flexed, dipped... I miss English.
This is just CYA for Clooney et al. They have known this for a long time. And they have seen it up close.
Hundreds, if not thousands of people have witnessed this up close and in person. What shameful people they are by intentionally hiding his mental incompetence from America by not speaking out....until now. too late.
“Perhaps the Democrat Socialists, at their convention in August, should substitute George Clooney for Joe Biden on the ticket.”
In today’s America, he would win.
so Clooney is mad that the cat is out of the bag now.
It’s NOT “age washing”; it’s “dementia washing.”
