Actor George Clooney recently made the absurd comparison of Joe Biden to George Washington after Biden withdrew from the 2024 presidential race. This comparison is outrageous on multiple levels.
First, Joe Biden didn’t step aside willingly; he was pushed out of the 2024 race by powerful figures within the Democrat Party. Second, George Clooney played a key role in this effort to remove Biden, even going so far as to write a column in The New York Times demanding that Biden withdraw.
This is an exercise that some people on the left are going through to make themselves feel better about the fact that they screwed over millions of their own primary voters to get Biden out of the race and install Kamala Harris as the nominee.
As reported by FOX News:
George Clooney praises Biden stepping aside as ‘most selfless thing’ since George Washington
Actor George Clooney praised President Biden’s decision to leave the 2024 race as “the most selfless thing that anyone’s done since George Washington” on Sunday.
In July, Clooney famously penned a New York Times guest essay headlined, “I Love Joe Biden. But We Need a New Nominee,” which admitted Biden had declined and insisting the Democratic Party needed a new candidate to defeat former President Trump. Biden eventually obliged, and Clooney couldn’t be happier.
“The person who should be applauded is the president who did the most selfless thing that anyone’s done since George Washington,” Clooney told reporters when asked about the easy, according to the Washington Post.
“What should be remembered is the selfless act of someone who — you know, it’s very hard to let go of power. We know that. We’ve seen it all around the world,” Clooney continued. “And for someone to say, ‘I think there’s a better way forward.’ All the credit goes to him … And all the rest of it will be long gone and forgotten.”
