Former President Donald Trump recently lashed out at actor George Clooney following Clooney’s public call for President Joe Biden to withdraw from the upcoming 2024 presidential race. This criticism comes just weeks after Clooney co-hosted a fundraiser for Biden, an event that now seems at odds with his subsequent op-ed published in The New York Times.
In a fiery post on Truth Social, Trump accused Clooney of betraying Biden, likening their actions to “rats.” He lambasted the actor for turning against Biden shortly after supporting him financially. “What does Clooney know about anything?” Trump questioned, dismissing Clooney’s use of the Democratic talking point that Biden had “saved our democracy.”
George sleeps with a communist posing as a human rights lawyer, he uses her tactics. Problem is… he’s really nobody, no power.. just another sheep

Trump didn’t stop there. He vehemently criticized Biden’s presidency, calling it the worst in U.S. history. Trump accused Biden of weaponizing law enforcement against political opponents, creating unprecedented inflation, mishandling the situation in Afghanistan, and enforcing an open border policy that, according to Trump, has led to a flood of illegal immigration, including individuals from prisons and mental institutions.
Trump said that Crooked Joe was the one who used law enforcement as a weapon against his political rival. “He created the most devastating INFLATION in the history of our Country, embarrassed our Nation in Afghanistan, and his crazy Open Border Policy has allowed millions of people to illegally pour into our Country.”

Trump further argued that Biden had not saved democracy but rather brought it to its knees. His scathing critique painted a picture of a presidency that he believes has failed the American people on multiple fronts.
Addressing Clooney directly, Trump suggested that the actor should stay out of politics altogether. “Clooney ought to return to television and leave politics behind. Movies never really worked for him!” Trump wrote, taking a personal jab at Clooney’s career in the film industry.
The exchange highlights the ongoing tensions between Trump and prominent figures in Hollywood, many of whom have been outspoken critics of his administration. It also underscores the broader political conflict as the nation gears up for the next presidential election. Hollywood has always been Leftist controlled. Today it is the same.

Clooney’s call for Biden to step down from the race appears to be rooted in concerns about Biden’s ability to lead the Democratic Party to victory in 2024. Despite this, Trump’s reaction emphasizes the deep divides within American politics, where even shared party lines can lead to significant disagreements and public disputes.
In the end, the spat between Trump and Clooney serves as a reminder of the polarized environment in which these discussions take place, and the passionate responses that any shift in political allegiance can provoke. Clooney knows it is over for the Democrat Party if Biden goes head-to-head with Trump. Republicans would be wise to not help the Democrats in any way. Trump knows with Biden as his opponent, stealing the election as was done in 2020 will become 10x harder seeing how Trump in some polls is now up over Biden by 1 point in NY and New Jersey This was impossible just 4 years ago.
