Trump calls George Clooney a ‘rat’ for turning on Biden

Former President Trump lashed out at actor George Clooney on Wednesday night, calling the Democratic Party ally a "rat" for calling on the president to cease reelection efforts.

Clooney published an op-ed in The New York Times earlier in the day, expressing his belief that President Biden "saved our democracy" by beating Trump in 2020 but acknowledging that Democrats "are not going to win in November with this president."

Trump responded to the op-ed later that night via Truth Social, his proprietary social media platform, saying, "So now fake movie actor George Clooney, who never came close to making a great movie, is getting into the act. He’s turned on Crooked Joe like the rats they both are."

"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 stated.

Clooney did take an apologetic tone in his op-ed — outright stating "I love Joe Biden" and that he believes in his "character" and "morals" — but claimed to have witnessed his decline firsthand at a fundraiser last month.

"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," Clooney wrote.

The actor joined a growing list of Hollywood elites and megadonors who've turned on Biden following the debate, where his halting, frail and at-times confused performance alarmed supporters.
