George Clooney says that Joe Biden was just as diminished during a recent fundraiser as he was during his disasterous debate.
George Clooney on Wednesday called on President Joe Biden to drop out of the 2024 race just weeks after co-hosting a star-studded fundraiser for the president’s campaign.
“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”, Clooney wrote in a column for The New York Times. “He wasn’t even the Joe Biden of 2020. He was the same man we all witnessed at the debate.”
Keeping Biden on the ballot, Clooney said would court disaster for the entire party this November.
“We are not going to win in November with this president”, the actor wrote. “On top of that, we won’t win the House, and we’re going to lose the Senate.
