George Clooney ‘Angry’ After Barack Obama ‘Convinced Him’ to Criticize Joe Biden – Then Got Blamed for Trump’s Victory

George Clooney is very upset because he feels that Barack Obama used him for a political plan that went wrong. Clooney, who has been friends with Obama for a long time, believes the former president convinced him to publicly support Kamala Harris as a replacement for Joe Biden in the 2024 election. However, when Harris’s campaign failed, Clooney felt abandoned by Obama and was blamed for the mess that followed.

In July, Clooney wrote an article where he said President Biden should not run for reelection because of his age and declining mental abilities. Just a few days later, Biden announced that he wouldn’t run and backed Kamala Harris to take his place. But when Harris lost, people in Clooney’s own political party started criticizing him. Many blamed Clooney for the failure, saying it was his fault for stirring up the situation. Social media users mocked him, with some sarcastically saying he helped Trump win by causing chaos within the Democratic Party.

One source said that Obama played a key role in this situation. Apparently, Obama didn’t want to be seen as disloyal to Biden, his former vice president, so he encouraged Clooney to speak out instead. Clooney took the advice and became a loud voice for change, calling for Biden to step aside. But when the plan failed, Obama stayed silent, leaving Clooney to deal with the backlash alone. Clooney now feels like he was set up to take the fall for something that wasn’t entirely his responsibility.

Clooney is also facing criticism from outside his party. Supporters of Donald Trump are making fun of him, saying Hollywood stars like Clooney only made Trump’s win easier. This adds to Clooney’s frustration, as he feels he became the public face of the Democratic Party’s struggles while others, including celebrities like Beyoncé who also supported Harris, avoided the same level of blame.

The situation has left Clooney feeling betrayed and used. He hoped Obama would publicly defend him, but that hasn’t happened. Clooney believes Obama should step forward and take some responsibility for the plan, but he doesn’t expect it to happen. As a result, Clooney has decided he won’t get involved in political campaigns again, saying he’s done being a “political water boy” for anyone.
