The actor and director George Clooneyan avowed Democrat who has participated in various presidential campaigns in the US and has supported the re-election of President Joe Biden, joined this Wednesday at Voices from his party are calling on the president to withdraw from the race and gave way to a new candidate. Clooney added that his opinion is shared privately by numerous congressmen and senators.
The American actor, who last month hosted a fundraising event for Biden alongside actress Julia Roberts, made clear his support for the president. I consider him a friend and I believe in him. I believe in his character. I believe in his morals. Over the past four years, he has won many of the battles he has faced, the Hollywood star wrote in a opinion article published in the New York Times.
But Clooney, one of the latest actors to join the re-election campaign, has also said the only battle he can’t win is the fight against time. None of us canhe said to remind that the Biden who is now seeking re-election is not the same one as in 2010, when he was vice president.
It’s devastating to say it…
It’s devastating to say it, but The Joe Biden I was with three weeks ago at the fundraiser was not the Joe Biden of 2010he wasn’t even the Joe Biden of 2020. He was the same man we all saw in the debate, he says in the opinion article.
Biden faced Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump in a debate that many, including a large section of Democratic leaders, said was made it clear that the president must withdraw from the race, which has led to names being considered as possible replacements.
Opinion of congressmen and governors
Was he tired? S. 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 chosen to ignore all the warning signs, he continued.
Is it fair to point these things out? It has to be. It’s about age. Nothing more, but nothing that can be reversed either. We are not going to win in November with this president, he warned, citing the possibility that Democrats will lose their chance to control Congress if Biden remains the candidate.
This is not just my opinion; This is the opinion of all the congressmen and governors with whom I have spoken privately, ends.
