None of us can. It\u2019s devastating to say it, but the Joe Biden I was with three weeks ago at the fund-raiser was not the Joe \u2018big F-ing deal\u2019 Biden of 2010. He wasn\u2019t even the Joe Biden of 2020. He was the same man we all witnessed at the debate,\u201d Clooney wrote.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWas he tired? Yes. A cold? Maybe. But our party leaders need to stop telling us that 51 million people didn\u2019t see what we just saw. We\u2019re all so terrified by the prospect of a second Trump term that we\u2019ve opted to ignore every warning sign. The\u00a0George Stephanopoulos interview\u00a0only reinforced what we saw the week before. As Democrats, we collectively hold our breath or turn down the volume whenever we see the president, who we respect, walk off Air Force One or walk back to a mic to answer an unscripted question.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Biden ultimately did indeed step aside, at which point reports began to surface concerning a behind-the-scenes plot spearheaded by Obama and former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA).<\/p>\n<p>Obama, a longtime friend of Clooney\u2019s,\u00a0reportedly \u201cgreen-lit\u201d the article\u00a0in order to apply pressure on his former running mate. The former president had hoped that pressure from Hollywood actors \u2014 who had provided a significant portion of Biden\u2019s war chest \u2014 would convince Biden that fundraising was drying up.<\/p>\n<p>According to multiple reports from a wide range of outlets \u2014 as well as\u00a0numerous confirmations from Pelosi \u2014 plot organizers had hoped for an \u201copen primary process\u201d in which a New Democratic Party nominee would be selected at the party\u2019s convention in August. Obama was\u00a0reportedly \u201cfurious\u201d\u00a0with Biden\u2019s decision to endorse Vice President Kamala Harris, as the former president had intended to throw his weight behind Senator Mark Kelly (D-AZ) at the convention, which took place in his hometown of Chicago.<\/p>\n<p>Biden\u2019s decision to endorse Harris was described as a \u201cf**k you\u201d to Biden and Pelosi for forcing him out, according to a report from the\u00a0<em>New York Post<\/em>\u00a0citing sources close to the Biden family.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-104296 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/trendingpoliticsnews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Screenshot-2024-12-01-at-1.50.17-PM-1024x552.png\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 740px) 100vw, 740px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/trendingpoliticsnews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Screenshot-2024-12-01-at-1.50.17-PM-1024x552.png 1024w, https:\/\/trendingpoliticsnews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Screenshot-2024-12-01-at-1.50.17-PM-300x162.png 300w, https:\/\/trendingpoliticsnews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Screenshot-2024-12-01-at-1.50.17-PM-768x414.png 768w, https:\/\/trendingpoliticsnews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Screenshot-2024-12-01-at-1.50.17-PM.png 1146w\" alt=\"Clooney with Obama in 2016\" width=\"740\" height=\"399\" \/><\/p>\n<p>In the aftermath of Harris\u2019 crushing defeat, Clooney feels that he has been made into a scapegoat.\u00a0\u201cGeorge feels he stepped up and took a bullet for the team, and now everyone\u2019s complaining about the bloodbath,\u201d another source told RadarOnline.<\/p>\n<p class=\"a9d-pre\">\u201cLots of celebrities, like Beyonc\u00e9, were on the campaign trail pumping up Kamala, but George became the face of the Hollywood liberals by directly calling for Biden to end his campaign and throwing the whole process into chaos.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe thinks Obama should come forward and say that George did the right thing and it isn\u2019t his fault that it didn\u2019t work out,\u201d the source continued.\u00a0\u201cBut he doesn\u2019t expect that will be forthcoming. and it\u2019s left George feeling like a patsy.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In the days following Trump\u2019s victory, numerous Democratic Party pundits\u00a0pointed the finger at Clooney\u00a0for penning the op-ed.
