George Clooney Reacts to President Joe Biden’s Withdrawal From the Race: Watch

The ‘Wolfs’ actor was asked about the op-ed he wrote, in which he asked the president to step down from the presidential race.

While promoting his latest film, Wolfs, at the Venice International Festival, the 63-year-old actor was asked about the op-ed he wrote for The New York Times earlier this summer, in which he called for the 81-year-old Democrat to step down from the race. George’s comment comes nearly two months after his op-ed titled, “I Love Joe Biden, But We Need a New Nominee,” was published by The New York Times on July 10. In it, the Casamigos co-founder called the president a “hero” and wrote that he “saved democracy in 2020.” However, George added in the essay, “We need him to do it again in 2024,” referring to Joe stepping down from the race.
