19. George Clooney is full of himself

Wed Jul 10, 2024, 12:17 PM

Jul 2024

He's falling for the same garbage about Biden's answer regarding having done his best.

The talking point is that he should be only considering the country and not himself.

Thus, he is selfish.

Clooney is not bright. He's a fucking actor.

Joe is capable and can manage age associated issues.

Sissies and traitors galore now.

So easily manipulated LiberalFighter Jul 2024 #5

I wouldn't be surprised if this could be a little more personal than some of the other announcements ColinC Jul 2024 #7

True enough, but it was reported that both talked that through--before the big fundraiser-- and the WH talk mellowed hlthe2b Jul 2024 #9

Yeah. I just wouldn't be surprised if Clooney still has a chip on his shoulder and this could be an ideal time to ColinC Jul 2024 #10

I believe you are on the right track. I think you nailed it perfectly. valleyrogue Jul 2024 #37

All you need is a total of 14 years living in the US. It doesn't have to be consecutive either. Celerity Jul 2024 #33

All we need is another narcissist in the White House. valleyrogue Jul 2024 #41

I don't want Biden to drop out either... Omnipresent Jul 2024 #34

I'm not in the habit, nor do I condone censoring information. Even that with which I disagree, if credible. hlthe2b Jul 2024 #43

I'm sure clooney started reading or listening to what others were saying and consequently, changed his mind. Omnipresent Jul 2024 #49

Fuck Clooney Willis88 Jul 2024 #53

Clooney is a good Democrat, and knows Biden and was with him a few weeks sgo. dem4decades Jul 2024 #55

Self delete. shrike3 Jul 2024 #60

Maybe he saw something that concerned him, and then that concern was validated? dem4decades Jul 2024 #62

Logic tells me it has more to do with this: shrike3 Jul 2024 #63

All that happened BEFORE Clooney co-hosted the largest fundraiser ever for Biden. Ms. Toad Jul 2024 #76

NY Mag just dropped an article about it. I'm not the only one who thinks there's more to the story. shrike3 Jul 2024 #80

You play hard ball by not participating in the fundraiser you promised. Ms. Toad Jul 2024 #81

Scads and scads of people have expressed their concern and called for Joe to drop out, in the NYT and on the air. shrike3 Jul 2024 #83

All those explanations EndlessWire Jul 2024 #56

Your right, I should have responded the first time Emile Jul 2024 #70

My very first sentence made clear I don't agree with Clooney, but attack me anyway for merely posting about it. hlthe2b Jul 2024 #71

George Clooney has no idea what he is talking about. SunSeeker Jul 2024 #67

What angers me the most about Clooney's "take" MerrilyMerrily Jul 2024 #68

Clooney has no idea what he is talking about. He suggested Newsom or Whitmer, who have no access to Biden money. SunSeeker Jul 2024 #72
