George Clooney calls on Biden to drop out of presidential race weeks after co-hosting fundraiser: ‘He cannot win’
NY Post ^ | July 10, 2024 | By Isabel Keane

Actor George Clooney called on Democrats to name a new nominee for the 2024 presidential election, claiming President Joe Biden “cannot win.”

Clooney made the call for a new candidate in an op-ed published in The New York Times Wednesday, noting that after co-hosting a Biden fundraiser less than two weeks before his disastrous debate last month, the largest fundraiser supporting any Democratic candidate to date, he feels the 81-year-old should step down.

“I love Joe Biden,” Clooney wrote. “As a senator. As a vice president and as president. I consider him a friend, and I believe in him. Believe in his character. Believe in his morals.”

Clooney continued: “But the one battle he cannot win is the fight against time. None of us can.”

“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 added. “He wasn’t even the Joe Biden of 2020. He was the same man we all witnessed at the debate.”

The “proud,” “lifelong Democrat” also said his “party leaders need to stop telling us that 51 million people didn’t see what we just saw.”

Doesn’t say much for Clooneys character or morals. Clown

The Palestinian whore and his Arab wife need to shut up. Don’t listen to these Hamas sympathizers, Joe. Carry on Joe. Fight on.

The utter arrogance and hypocrisy of this guy.

He saw Biden with his own eyes and knew how bad he was but flutters along with the wind.

Let’s be honest folks. We never thought the left would get to this point. They stick together and don’t waver. Pelosi kept her moderates in line with a firm grip.

So what is it now? Looks like they followed their own ‘rules’ to a fault and this is the result. Identity politics was one rule and they got Kamala? LGBTQ got us men in girls bathrooms. The Kenyan and BJ were better at keeping these tendencies under the rug but the current leadership doesn’t have the skill. Mike and Hillary can’t save them as they’re unlikable grifters. Should they take their loss while making a statement setting themselves up for ‘28. I don’t they have ‘28 in mind. They lose now and
it’s over.

What is it with these ‘entertainers’ who want to always put in THEIR 2 cents? As if they are authorities or something.

Go away and do pretend which is all you are good at

“As a senator. As a vice president and as president. I consider him a friend, and I believe in him. Believe in his character. Believe in his morals.”

It is great when somebody outs themselves as a sociopath like that.

2016-Perhaps they would have been in better shape if Bernie beat out Hillary for the nomination, took his loss to Trump and send the democrats back to the drawing board to get back to the BJ/Kenyan formula of winning. They’d then be in better shape for ‘24. It’s like Reagan losing the nomination to Ford in ‘76. 1980 put the Bush wing moderates in the background. It doesn’t help them to have that bald headed red dress)+lipstick) fella stealing luggage.

Wasn’t that the purpose of primaries?

Had the Dems not kept Biden cloistered, the public would have seen how frail he was. That is when other potential candidates should have stepped up.

[Dems, regular TV has become so lousy, thanks for this mini-series. It should be good through early November. And popcorn sales will be through the roof.]

Note that he says this only AFTER Biden self-identified as a black woman.

That’s it!!!!

Biden is done!

I mean, if George Clooney calls for your head, forget about it.
I mean, there is no one with any more gravitas then the worst batman (which is hard to do considering the field), the guy who stared at goats, and the protagonist in the most boring (anti)intrigue psychological scifi ever made.
