The 2024 election was two months in the past and the left remains to be offended at George Clooney for writing the New York Times op-ed that known as for Joe Biden to drop out of the 2024 race.
Bear in mind, on the time he wrote the piece, many individuals on the left noticed him as a hero for forcing Biden out. As soon as they misplaced, Clooney became their scapegoat overnight.
Do these folks actually consider they’d have received with Joe Biden? Many individuals consider the loss by Democrats would have been even worse.

From the piece:
On the time, it appeared like a smart sufficient thought. In spite of everything, throughout his 90-minute senior second on the June debate in opposition to Donald Trump, Joe Biden appeared like a surefire loser. So why shouldn’t Clooney, a significant Democratic fundraiser, write an op-ed for The New York Occasions prompting the president to step apart and let a youthful candidate run? What may probably go fallacious? Oy. However to be honest, Clooney wasn’t the one left-leaning celeb who underdelivered this election cycle. Beyoncé, Will Ferrell, Richard Gere, Katy Perry, Dick Van Dyke — none of them have been in a position to transfer the needle of public opinion sufficient to get Kamala Harris into the White Home, not even Taylor Swift. In the long run, America listened to Hulk Hogan.
The left could by no means recover from this loss. They could by no means forgive George Clooney both. Unhappy.
