George Clooney is making his disdain for Donald Trump known not just here in the United States but also overseas.

The actor was interviewed by members of the international press at the Cannes Film Festival on Thursday afternoon, and took some time to share with them his opinion of Trump.

'There's not going to be a President Donald Trump,' said Clooney, who held a fundraiser for Hillary Clinton last month in Los Angeles where tickets reportedly went for $353,400 per couple.

'That's not going to happen. Fear is not going to be something that drives our country. We're not going to be scared of Muslims or immigrants or women. We're not actually afraid of anything.'

As I remember, the Dixie Chicks killed their career by badmouthing a Conservative when they were on foreign soil.

I’m not motivated by fear, but an almost incandescent rage at the current political establishment.

It's too bad the Dixie Chicks did what they did; great talent, energetic beats, and they threw it all away. I think bashing the US on foreign soil is de rigeur for celebs slipping down the Hollywood totem pole.

I really have no idea. Frankly I don’t think he’s going to win favors from producers and directors for this antic.

Same here. I look back on past revolutions and understand why they became what it is they did.

I think they want more than money and fame and like a child, want to be taken seriously without earning the respect that can only be acquired through genuine hard work and a ruthlessness that becomes ingrained after many tests.

I dislike their enablers. If they were put in their place, that is, not allowed to interfere in the world of diplomacy, or allowed to interfere in affairs of government, tings would be better off.

The word is that he’s trying to drum up attention because he’s had 5 straight bombs at the box office.

Did Clooney use his “Obama Policy Advisor” title?
