George Clooney Calls Donald Trump ‘a Xenophobic Fascist’
Variety ^ | March 03, 2016 | Jacob Bryant

George Clooney has joined the masses in calling out Donald Trump.

In an interview with The Guardian, Clooney sat down and talked about his thoughts on the potential Republican nominee.

“He’s just an opportunist,” the “Hail, Caesar” actor said. “Now he’s a fascist; a xenophobic fascist.”

Clooney added that during election season it often isn’t the person with the best idea being heard but rather the person who is loudest.

“Let’s put things into perspective,” he said. “You know, the truth of the matter is, in election season, things go crazy, and the loudest voices are the furthest and most extreme. So you hear a massively stupid idea, like we’re going to ban Muslims from the country. Now, we’re not ever going to do that. It says in the Statue of Liberty, bring us your huddled masses. It’s not what’s going to happen.”

Clooney also talked about the potential Democratic nominees. The actor said he was a Hillary Clinton supporter and had plans to do a fundraiser for her. A similar fundraiser he put on in 2012 for Obama raised more than $12 million. He also spoke on his admiration for Bernie Sanders.

Ah! George Clooney is it?

He could have used a qualifying sentence to vent his outrage. Certainly feel free of course to lambast Trump. Now, let me indicate to him what would happen if he met a REAL fascist. First he would get a thundering smash in the face. Then as he looked up, being knocked down he would see this.

A jackboot stamping on his face forever.

With apologies to George Orwell.
