George Clooney threw his support behind Kamala Harris for president just two weeks after turning on President Joe Biden by writing a scathing op-ed urging him to drop out.
Last month, the 63-year-old actor and husband of prominent international human rights lawyer Amal Clooney, 46, thanked President Biden, 81, for 'saving democracy' as he endorsed his vice president.
Clooney stated that he was excited for Harris, 59, and her 'historic quest' to win the upcoming election.
Now sources within the Democratic Party tell DailyMail.com Clooney's recent involvement in the presidential race is part of a 'calculated' effort to put himself in line for a future White House run.
'His endorsement of Kamala was definitely calculated. George is contemplating a future run for president and he has the support of one of the most powerful Democrats in the world, Barack Obama.
'He has his scope set on a possible run for a Senate seat in 2026 and will undoubtedly continue to gain respect within the Democratic party,' the insider said.
The Ocean's 11 actor's vocal support of Harris came after he penned a scathing op-ed in the New York Times urging Biden to drop out of the 2024 presidential race against Donald Trump, 78.

Does he have gray temples yet? That would be a requirement. He’d have the “look.”
Go for it man.
He has a radical Muslim wife. Not sure how he’s gonna get past that.
Perhaps Clooney could run as Harris’ vice president. If so, I’ve got a slogan they can use. It’s free of charge. Notice that it gives a hat tip to Kamala’s method of rising to power.
“Vote for Temptress Harris and Loony Clooney.”
He’s at least as dumb as Harris.
so much for leaving the countfy once Trump was elected
dear george, how bloody dare you! you called this military veteran stupid for supporting DJT!THDN, you think you could o.e forward and be the president over all of us you called stupid???
you represent Hollywood, which resents most of the nation.
get trucked!
I think he should get some experience first. Maybe he could pretend to be the president in a movie. He could also get some coaching from Martin Sheen or Michael Douglas.
Cindy Sheehan tried this.
I’m disappointed in him.
Yes, he’s cute. And came from a nice family (aunt was singer Rosemary Clooney, dad was newsman Nick Clooney).
But I don’t think he is qualified.
Ben Affleck has the same delusions of grandeur.
“Actors. Is there anything they don’t know?”
Homer Simpson
It could happen. We already had President Kardashian (Obama).
George should stay in France with his Israel-hating wife.
That’s a NOPE on George.
L - O- freaking L-
DIDN’T I SAY THIS A WEEK AGO?!
Well, OK. I said QueMala would be smart to pick George as her VP pick because that would clinch the brain dead liberal broads, and that The Most High and Holy Empress Bath House Barry would be beyond thrilled in his girlish, closet Jihadi, gay little heart to have his favorite boypal sooooo close.
But I called it first.
It’s been out there for years that Obama had been grooming Clooney for the White House. Who knows what will happen?
“Yes, he’s cute.”
Quite the hunk when he was on Roseanne.
With Clooney as President, the United States would be a “country of constant sorrow”.
Best that George stick to acting....something he knows. We already have enough misinformed politicians.
