George Clooney Blamed by Dems for Turning on Biden
The Daily Beast ^ | Nov. 7 2024 | David Gardner

George Clooney is facing a backlash from demoralized Democrats for demanding that Joe Biden step down from the White House race.

The Ocean’s Eleven star urged Biden to quit in July, writing in the New York Times: “We are not going to win in November with this president.”

Now embittered Democrats have blasted the 63-year-old actor for interfering in the botched 2024 presidential election campaign as the shattered party seeks explanations for how it all went so wrong.

“Thank you George Clooney,” wrote journalist Joshua Hartley on X, with a pinned link to the Times op-ed titled, “George Clooney: I Love Joe Biden. But We Need a New Nominee.”

Alongside a Batman movie meme, political activists altNOAA wrote: Someone bring me George Clooney. We need to have a...talk.”

“Trump should not forget to thank the Hollywood celebrities. Especially George Clooney,” added another user on X, formerly known as Twitter.

“Since I’m in a deep depression and feel like lashing out at someone, what’s the plan now George Clooney?” read a post, according to the Daily Mail, while another added, “It’s all George Clooney’s fault!”

While some commentators blame Biden for not getting out of the contest earlier, others believe he should never have dropped out at all and he would have retained the white working-class voters who appear to have deserted his successor.

Maybe they should not have listened to celebrities.

One pundit (Maybe Bannon) said that Clooney does absolutely NOTHING related to politics unless it comes from Obama.

I have never seen the blame game played to such astonishing perfection as Liberals play it. It's always someone else's fault but their own. An award winning gaslighting performance.

It is good to see, but they have been there before and so have we.

Don’t be shocked at how quickly they coalesce in order to oppose Trump’s administration at every step.

So, they want to blame an actor, rather than the ones who actually had the ‘come to Jesus’ meeting with Biden. What? Are the ones who did the actual stabbing untouchable?

Liberals, have you considered that George Clooney was a MAGA plant all along? Just to be safe, you should boycott all his movies.
