Poor George Clooney.
The far-left actor said he was doing the right thing when he wrote an op-ed for the New York Times in which he urged President Joe Biden to withdraw from the presidential race so a suitable candidate could intervene. I thought.
Biden did so, naming Harris his successor. Hollywood glitterati rejoiced and confidently predicted that Harris would defeat President-elect Trump.
But then the unthinkable happened. Mr. Trump attacked Ms. Harris fiercely and appears to have won her 73 million votes and 312 electoral votes.
And now stalled Democrats and leftists are blaming Clooney for giving the nation Trump 47th place. Trump supporters are deeply grateful to him.
The problem is that Clooney was just one player, not a key figure, in the Democratic establishment coup that ended Biden's political career. Hollywood moguls who withheld about $100 million in donations to Mr. Biden were also involved, along with former President Barack Hussein Obama and former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi.
clooney op-ed
It's not that Clooney wasn't a Biden supporter. The headline of his article began, “I love Joe Biden.”
Then a big problem arose. “But we need a new candidate,” Clooney concluded after the disastrous debate between Biden and Trump.
Party members explained how much they love Biden, boasting that they “co-hosted the largest fundraiser in history supporting Democratic candidates for President Biden's re-election.”
As a senator. Both as vice president and president. I consider him a friend and I believe in him. Please believe in his character. Believe in his morals. Over the past four years, he has won many of the battles he has faced.
But the only battle he cannot win is the race against time. None of us can do that. It's shocking to say this, but the Joe Biden I was with at a fundraiser three weeks ago was not the Joe “Big Fa-ing Deal” Biden of 2010. He wasn't even Joe Biden in 2020. The same guy we all witnessed at the debate.
Was he tired? yes. cold? perhaps. But our party leaders need to stop saying 51 million people didn't see what we just saw. We are all so scared of the prospect of Trump's second term that we choose to ignore all the warning signs.
The problem is Biden's age, “nothing more,” he wrote, and Biden must protect himself lest the evil Orange Man Bad retake the White House and usher in a dark Hitler dictatorship. must be withdrawn.
In fact, the real problem is Biden's insidious dementia and “nothing more.” But in any case, Clooney was still just one player in the effort to dethrone Biden.
Around the same time Clooney came forward with his diagnosis, Hollywood's Big Shot pulled $93 million from Biden's reelection campaign.
And as if that wasn't enough, Pelosi and Obama stepped in to finish the job.
Politico reported that Pelosi was given a “subtle green light” in her public remarks to say out loud what Democrats have been saying in private for years: Biden is not worthy of re-election. It was reported that it was released.
As reported by the Washington Post, Mr. Obama said, “In recent days, he has reassured allies that President Biden's path to victory has moved significantly further away,'' according to people briefed on his thoughts. , the president said he believes it is necessary to seriously consider the possibility of running for office.

Mr. Obama reportedly had deep discussions behind the scenes about the future of Mr. Biden's campaign, fielded calls from a number of concerned Democrats, including former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.), and said the president They shared their views on the issue. People with knowledge of the calls spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss private conversations.
Axios reported that Democratic Party leaders are pressuring Biden to withdraw from the race.
Blame Clooney…or thank him?
That truth seems to have been forgotten by outraged Harris supporters and Trump supporters who thanked the Ocean's Eleven star.
“Someone bring George Clooney,” user X wrote. “We… need to talk.”
“This is all George Clooney's fault,” another wrote.
“George Clooney, this is all your fault,” he wrote.
However, many Trump supporters praised Mr. Clooney for helping to remove Mr. Biden from the race.
“I'd like to take a moment to thank George Clooney for defeating America's most incompetent candidate to ensure Trump's victory,” said one. “#MAGA.”
“Democrats Who Vote Forever Trump” commentator Jason Tucker thanked Clooney and other celebrities for supporting loser Harris.
Let's all give a big round of applause 👏🏻👏🏻 And to all the Hollywood celebrities who helped elect Donald J. Trump as our 47th president, especially J-Lo, Beyoncé, Taylor Swift, and esp. Let's give thanks to George Clooney.
“Can we give a special thank you to George Clooney for saving America?” another user asked.
Clooney said that when Biden resigned from the race, the aging president “performed the most selfless act since George Washington.”
