Why George Clooney never thought Trump would be president
I agree with him absolutely. And not because he is who he is but for the way he thinks and feels. 👍👍👍
And looks. Let us not forget that part.
@M Hall and he lost. Nobody in their right mind would want this DNA fatal error near real heartfelt intelligent educated humans.
He continues to convey a compelling combination of silly and thoughtful.
Here is the recommended clip that explains all :-

I agree 100% this was some of his best acting!
It worries me, that more and more people without a moral compass gets higher and higher positions in politics.
It worries me that America has to listen to actors and real estate moguls, to determine incredibly important decisions and viewpoints in their life. Wow. They won’t listen to scholars or economists or scientists, and the like. But give ’em an Actor….
So where is Clooney helping?
like Hillary
Conformity
George, this is where trying is everything, and it takes everyone’s participation to make a difference. Thanks for being in it with the rest of us, working to make it a better nation and world.
@lie exposed one week old account. Fake.
At first, I didn’t think Trump would win because I didn’t think America was so stupid. I stand totally corrected.
@Tobias Birmingham No bad policies and executive orders. You still have nothing to say.
@Lilly Anderson Thank you so much! I did vote for DT and America was in a much better place than today, but we’ll soon find out how pleased people are with the current circus we’re experiencing come November 8th.
George explained Trump as he knows him. That’s the truth. But he didn’t say anything insulting like Trump does to many people. George is classy guy.
It was an underhanded comment though. Basically called him out for cheating on his wife.
@Marc Dellorusso but in a “classy” way. I admire him for that which is something I’ve never, in 4 decades, been able to do when it comes to anything about creamsicle caligula.
The way Americans celebrate cruelty over kindness, America is headed toward fascism. George nailed.
🤣
@YouTube Admin 😂 🤣😂 🤡
I am glad there are people who are not trump fooled. I am also glad to hear that George Clooney has a sense of humour. My daughter is 5 and we play pranks on each other too though to be fair she gives herself away all the time but if she did the chocolate prank on me I’d have a mini heart attack. 😅😂
@John how are we so blind to see that both sides don’t help the American citizen.
@John
“How is Biden better?”
That question indicates a distance from reality which is probably impossible to rectify.
Tell me one damn reason he’s better? Can you?
I agree that the constant celebration of cruelty to those who can’t fight back is the most troubling development in American culture, and there are a LOT of very bad developments in current American culture.
What a fare number of Americans need is a huge dose of humility and sincere humbleness! Soon!
Yeah, they need to feel it back. Those of us that are constantly cruelly treated would love to hold them down and be cruel right back while laughing about how they’re unable to move too. Vengeance is coming and it will be sweet.
And its spreading beyond the borders of America. Some right wing Canadians
admire Ron DeSantis for what he did with the migrants. Who were not in Florida in the first place. The hateful, nasty politics is getting outside America.
What an all around good and gracious human being is George Clooney. Oh, how I wish he could change the world even faster. We are in such great danger in the US at present that it is scary and disheartening.
Hello my friend 👋❣️ how are you doing?
Here is the recommended clip that explains all :-

I really like this guy: (1) Care a lot and act to make the world better, and (2) have some fun.
I love a man who can admit that he’s failed! George is a real man! His father gave him good advice!
yes we have all failed at some point in our lives
Last fight https://youtu.be/kXeOAoAoCRU
@John Myers yep, we all make mistakes and hopefully learn from them.
🤮🤢 what’s a man explain what a man i
George is right, the real issue here is not just the political and ideological divide, but the coarsening of attitudes and the increasing tolerance toward acts of meanness, cruelty, and general uncivil behaviors. Because every other problems begins with people’s attitude toward one another.
Thanks for speaking up we need more people like him saying things
hehehehehehe…..yes please, I would enjoy listening to a rich elitist speaking as if nothing is wrong except for the right wing. blaming the other party seems to be the best approach given Biden and the Democrats catastrophes, one most notable…….inflation. I wont mentin the others, people will get upset.
although he hasn’t been speaking up much. where has he been? Since trump got elected in 2016, George has not as been politically active as is his younger years. he even said he and trump used to be pals.
lol we need more celebs to cry about trump 24/7 while 90% of the US is dealing with real day to day problems that have nothing to do with him…..Sure bud
George’s insights are the real arc that bends towards justice. I don’t see his efforts to “roll a ball uphill” towards that arc as a “failure” but rather like planting seeds of compassion and true worth that will bloom for all who live on the same planet earth. Thank you.
@Mr Rey how sad. This was a legitimate attempt to help you. Based on your original comment, I know you’re watching or reading some right wing propaganda, bc these are the only ones saying what you did in your comments. You’re too far gone apparently and that’s sad. Why would you bring up something that has nothing to do with the video, unless you’re deflecting, ask yourself that.
@Mr Rey too bad. Name calling and insults. Exactly what I expect. Dud I di that? No I didn’t bc that wasn’t my purpose . But you won’t see that . Calling me a threat to humanity is insane coming from you. Continue living in your make believe “reality”. Mark my words, you will regret it.
We need more of Clooney. Smart guy with a great sense of humor.
Unfortunately Clooney won’t run and he says he won’t because he drank the bong water.
Yea he’s a celebrity so he’s got to be logical
@GENERAL ACTIVITY really?
🤮🤢
“I’m worried about the coarsening of America.” Me too.
America wasn’t founded on kindness, gentleness, fairness or equality.
Nothing has changed.
Not just a pretty face! He’s the nicest, sweetest most fun person in Hollywood. I saw him nearly every day when I worked on the Warner Bros. Lot. His office was right behind mine. He always had a smile, a Good Morning, a Hi Ladies greeting. Never took himself seriously or too good to interact with un-famous studio employees. Just a nice person unaffected by his fame.
I met George in person just before “Batman” came out…he was very nice, genuine, and thanked me for wishing him “good luck” with the movie.
We shook hands and said “have a nice day”! 😊
PS… He was just as handsome in person then, as now, and I remember his hands being warm! 🥰
So good to know
Lucky boy! If that were the case with me I would want to have a deeper conversation with him and Amal. A young family like that is what America needs. Come on George! You are about the same age as my younger brother. Who plays basketball and was at his daughter’s game this weekend. Two generations at our university!
He acted in an episode of street hawk. Back in 1985.
So truly thankful for people like George and Amal in our world to stand up and speak out for kindness and justice.
It is neat to see Chris Wallace have a good time interviewing someone with a good mind and a great sense of humor. What a neat line of questioning.
