<p dir="auto">These are his first comments on Biden since Clooney wrote his New York Times op-ed calling on Biden to step down.<br />
<a href="https://variety.com/2024/film/festivals/george-clooney-biden-most-selfless-president-dropping-out-presidential-race-1236126540/" rel="nofollow ugc">https://variety.com/2024/film/festivals/george-clooney-biden-most-selfless-president-dropping-out-presidential-race-1236126540/</a><br />
“I’ve actually never had to answer that question so I suppose I will do it here,” Clooney said when asked about it at the Venice press conference for his new film “Wolfs.”<br />
“The person who should be applauded is the president, who has done the most selfless thing a president has done since George Washington,” he said, adding: “What should be remembered is the selfless act of someone who, it’s very hard to let go of power — we know that, we’ve seen it all over the world — and for someone to say I think there’s a better path forward, all the credit goes to him. And that’s really the truth … I’m just very proud of where we are in the state of the world right now.”</p>

<p dir="auto">He's Obama's close friend which is why people cared. Everyone knew Clooney wouldn't have written that op-ed if Obama didn't OK it, so it was a thinly veiled message to other democrats that Obama is giving the signal to turn on Biden.</p>

<p dir="auto">He quit because Don Obamma and Consiglieri Pelosi told him that either his signature or his political brains would be on the resignation paper.<br />
I don't know what you mean by this.<br />
Does that relate to what I brought up?<br />
And Clooney is a ****ing idiot!<br />
How so?<br />

<p dir="auto">Only reason why Brandon quit was because Kamala was going to use the 25th on his older than dirt ass.<br />
Loony Clooney is giving credit to something that is not noble or humble.<br />
