Actor George Clooney, top Biden fundraiser, says Democrats not going to win presidency with him
WASHINGTON: A top Hollywood fundraiser for US President Joe Biden called for a new Democratic presidential candidate on Wednesday, arguing that the party cannot win the White House in November with him as the nominee.
"We are not going to win in November with this president. On top of that, we will not win the House, and we are going to lose the Senate. This is not only my opinion, this is the opinion of every senator and Congress member and governor who I have spoken with in private. Every single one, irrespective of what he or she is saying publicly," George Clooney, an actor, director and film producer, said in an op-ed in "The New York Times".
Clooney, who hosted a very successful fundraiser for Biden in June, said he observed a different Joe Biden at that event.
