He is a successful actor, director, business owner, philanthropist, and activist. He’s worth hundreds of millions of dollars, according to Forbes. He also appeared to be an up-and-coming scribe for the New York Times when, on July 10, 2024, he wrote the now infamous op-ed, “I Love Joe Biden. But We Need a New Nominee.”

Clooney’s words sent shockwaves through the country’s political realm. It was largely seen as the beginning of the end for the reelection campaign of President Joe Biden. In what could be described as a contemporary, real-life, albeit less violent, updated version of the Shakespearean classic Julius Caesar, Clooney, the thespian, would cast himself as Brutus, the political conspirator and assassin, and the octogenarian Biden would fulfill the role as Julius Caesar. 

Unbeknownst to Biden, the affluent elitist’s op-ed would be the first domino to fall that would eventually end his campaign. Like the titular character in Shakespeare’s play, Biden’s second-term ambitions would also be assassinated by someone he perceived as an ally and a friend. Clooney’s written words would be the dagger in Biden’s back. His political corpse would be tossed aside and replaced like an old piece of furniture. Clooney’s op-ed was the catalyst for the nation’s oligarchs to anoint and appoint their chosen successor, the younger, female, racial minority, Vice President Kamala Harris.

It turned out to be Clooney’s latest glorious production; but for all the wrong reasons.

One can hardly wait for George Clooney’s next op-ed after such a colossal political failure. But this is not the first time the actor has been horribly wrong in politics. Look no further than his comments from 2016, in which Clooney, while sitting in the luxurious confines of the Cannes Film Festival next to other affluent elitists, smugly stated, “There’s not going to be a President Donald Trump. That’s not going to happen.” 

The harsh reality, however, is that Clooney is not as intelligent or as influential as he, and apparently other Democrats, think he is. Suffice it to say, he shouldn’t be adding “political acumen” to the list of skills on his resume. Furthermore, instead of listening to the words of George Clooney, they should have been reading the words of Abraham Lincoln, who said, during the Gettysburg Address, that the nation’s government is of the people, by the people, for the people. It’s not a government of affluent entertainers and other oligarchs who rule over the working class.

Instead of listening to Clooney and his fellow elitists, a group of people who just gave Biden millions upon millions of dollars for his campaign shortly before Clooney’s article, Democrats should have been listening to the people they regularly pretend to care about. They should have listened to the people who were tired and scared of rampant, widespread, violent crime. They should have listened to the people who were afraid of being murdered by illegal immigrants. They should have listened to the people who said their bills were too high and they could no longer afford groceries, utilities, and gas.

Instead of hearing the people who voted them into office, Democrats listened to the guy worth approximately $500 million who probably wrote the Times op-ed, if it was not ghostwritten for him, in a sumptuous Italian villa on Lake Como while sipping his Nespresso. But this is your modern Democratic Party, and President-elect Donald Trump showed this to the country. While Trump did photo ops at McDonald’s and rode in trash trucks, Harris was hobnobbing with celebrities like George Clooney and other entertainers, actors, and singers — people who were not suffering the way the everyday American that Trump was speaking to was suffering. 

As a result, Trump went from former President to President-elect. Meanwhile, George Clooney went from revered thespian to failed Democrat political operative, strategist, and New York Times opinion writer. 

So, does anybody know when George Clooney is writing his next op-ed?
