George Clooney Calls on Joe Biden to Drop Out, Asks Democrats to Pick a New Presidential Nominee

George Clooney wants Democrats to pick a new nominee.

The 63-year-old actor, who just co-hosted a star-studdedd fundraiser for Joe Biden in June, is now calling on Democrats to pick a new nominee and for the president to be a “hero” and step aside amid ample debate about his ability to potentially hold office for the next four years.

“I love Joe Biden. 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. In the last four years, he’s won many of the battles he’s faced,” he wrote in an op-ed to the New York Times.

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

“Was he tired? Yes. A cold? Maybe. But our party leaders need to stop telling us that 51 million people didn’t see what we just saw. We’re all so terrified by the prospect of a second Trump term that we’ve opted to ignore every warning sign,” he continued.

“Is it fair to point these things out? It has to be. This is about age. Nothing more. But also nothing that can be reversed. We are not going to win in November with this president. On top of that, we won’t win the House, and we’re going to lose the Senate. This isn’t only my opinion; this is the opinion of every senator and congress member and governor that I’ve spoken with in private. Every single one, irrespective of what he or she is saying publicly.”

Here’s what the President said about whether he’ll stay in the race.
