George Clooney 'furious' over being blamed for Trump's win after Barack Obama 'seduced' him to oust Biden

LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Activist and actor George Clooney is reportedly incensed after being persuaded by former president Barack Obama to advocate for Kamala Harris to replace a struggling Joe Biden in the 2024 election, only to feel betrayed when his former ally distanced himself following her defeat.

Clooney authored an opinion piece in July, urging President Biden to withdraw from his reelection bid, pointing to concerns over his waning mental acuity.

George Clooney feels betrayed by Barack Obama after pushing for Joe Biden's exit

As per Radar Online, a showbiz insider mentioned, "George is furious with Obama for disappearing after the election disaster and leaving him holding the bag for pushing the plan with his Hollywood pals."

"We are not going to win in November with this president," he declared. Eleven days later, Biden, at 82, heeded the advice, passing his campaign torch to Vice President Kamala Harris. As soon as Harris' historic White House bid fell short, Clooney began to face backlash.

He added, "Since I'm in a deep depression and feel like lashing out at someone, what's the plan now, George Clooney?" One of his many same-party critics writes on social media. "It's all George Clooney's fault!"

In the meantime, supporters of Donald Trump took to gleefully taunting the ultra-liberal celebrity. "Trump should not forget to thank Hollywood celebrities – especially George Clooney," one poster cracked.

A source informed Radar Online that it was Obama who encouraged Clooney to request Biden, his former vice president, to conclude his faltering campaign, due to concerns about the repercussions if he were to do it personally.

"Obama and Clooney have been tight for years, and George became Barack's surrogate in leading the charge for Joe to step away," explained the source.

It further added, "Barack knew he would look like a traitor if he publicly called for Joe to be cut loose. And now, he's trying to walk away from it all. George feels duped and vows he's not going to be anyone's political water boy anymore."
