Former US President Donald Trump has lashed out at actor George Clooney for calling on President Joe Biden to drop out of the presidential race.
Clooney had written an essay praising Biden’s leadership, claiming he “saved” American democracy.
Trump reacted via his X handle, labeling Clooney “a fake who never came close to making a great movie.” He questioned Clooney’s expertise, stating, “What does Clooney know about anything? He uses the Democrat ‘talking point’ that Biden, the worst President in the history of the United States, has ‘saved our Democracy.'”
Trump argued that Biden’s presidency has been marked by weaponizing law enforcement against the opposition, devastating inflation, embarrassment in Afghanistan, and unchecked illegal migration. The former President is set to face Biden in a historic rematch election on November 5th.
This latest exchange highlights the ongoing tensions between Trump and Biden, with Clooney’s comments sparking a heated response from the former President. The presidential race is shaping up to be a highly contested and dramatic event.
