George Clooney’s deception cannot cover up his ruthless attack on Biden’s career.
My summer was spent near George Clooney’s villa in Lake Como, where he was vacationing with Brad Pitt.
We didn’t meet, but I couldn’t help but think about Clooney’s opinion of his old friend Joe Biden.
Clooney wrote a scathing op-ed calling for Biden to drop out of the presidential race after a disappointing performance at a fundraiser and a disastrous debate with Trump.
The headline was clear: “I Love Joe Biden. But We Need a New Nominee.”
Clooney criticized Biden’s performance and concluded that he was not fit to win the election in November.
His op-ed led to other Democrats, like Nancy Pelosi, joining in the campaign to force Biden out of the race.
I wonder if Biden has spoken to Clooney since the op-ed was published?
Despite the belief that Clooney was acting in the party’s best interest, the way he turned on Biden was brutal and must have been hurtful to their friendship.
Now, Clooney is trying to portray Biden as a hero for stepping down, but in reality, Biden was pressured and humiliated into quitting.
It’s hard to forget the betrayal Biden faced from his so-called friends, including Clooney.
Ironically, in Clooney’s new movie, he plays a character who makes problems disappear by throwing them to the wolves, similar to how he handled the Biden situation.
