George Clooney has endorsed Kamala Harris' presidential campaign while praising President Joe Biden for "saving democracy again."
George Clooney Endorses Kamala Harris for President
In a statement, Clooney said: "President Biden has shown what true leadership looks like. He is saving democracy again. We are all so excited to do everything we can to support Vice President Harris in her historic quest."
Clooney published an op-ed earlier this month calling for Biden to withdraw from the race, citing the president’s performance during the debate and an appearance at a June 15 fundraising event in Los Angeles, where Clooney co-hosted the event.
Clooney wrote, "It's heartbreaking to say, but the Joe Biden I was with at the fundraiser three weeks ago was not the Joe 'big f—ing deal' Biden of 2010. He wasn't even the Joe Biden of 2020. He was the same guy we all saw at the debate." His op-ed indicated that support from the entertainment community for the president as he continued his campaign was generally waning.
