Rob Reiner Joins George Clooney in Abandoning Sinking Ship

The big news of the day, which Twitchy reported earlier, is that Hollywood star George Clooney, who just hosted a fundraiser for President Joe Biden, published an op-ed in the New York Times withdrawing his support for Biden in 2024. "It’s devastating to say it, but the Joe Biden I was with three weeks ago at the fund-raiser was not the Joe 'big F-ing deal' Biden of 2010." Clooney wrote. "He wasn’t even the Joe Biden of 2020. He was the same man we all witnessed at the debate."

Big-name Democrats are joining Clooney in thanking Biden for doing such a tremendous job for 50 years, but now get out. The Obama Bros are making no secret of their desire for "hero" Biden to step aside. We're hearing that actor Michael Douglas has said that Clooney's concerns are valid.

Then there's Rob Reiner. Make no mistake — Reiner considers a second Trump term the end of America as we know it. Nothing is more important to him than seeing Trump in prison. And it sounds like he's doubtful that Biden can keep Trump from the presidency.

My friend George Clooney has clearly expressed what many of us have been saying. We love and respect Joe Biden. We acknowledge all he has done for our country. But Democracy is facing an existential threat. We need someone younger to fight back. Joe Biden must step aside.…

Ouch.

Rob. You need to stop now. Joe will not renounce. Continue on this path and you are doing Trump’s work for him. FDR was elected on his deathbed. Have some faith and get back on the team. And bring that money

And who must step in place? What’s the plan Rob? Because all of you knew what Biden was like 3 years ago! So who is the person who is going to come in and energize a base? A base that in every election you have to pull more than teeth to get registered Democrats to vote. So who?

Biden has already made his position clear. He will not step down. So you have two choices. You stick with the person you came to the dance with or you don’t. Those are your options. If you truly love and respect Biden, respect his decision. Simple as that.

He has no intention of dropping out. Your support would go a lot further.

He said it would be up to God if he were to drop out.

Just because you make movies doesn’t mean I care.

I don't care what George Clooney thinks. So there's that.

Confirming once again; why Hollyweird and politics are completely separate entities. Hey Rob, you suck at it, but stick to Hollyweird.

Did you seriously just name drop George Clooney? Guess what, nobody cares. You are irrelevant to this matter and so is he.

You would turn your back on your own Mother

Younger? So now it's about age?
— lasermama (@lasermama1) July 10, 2024

It's ageism and ableism, plain and simple.

You directed Stand by Me but won’t stand with Joe.

😂😂😂😂 Come on Rob. He’s fine. Get behind your leader. You’ve been propping him up all this time. You deserve this moment. Deserve it . Every. Bit.

Yeah, don't listen to Clooney. He's a traitor. Just because he's nervous doesn't mean you have to buckle. Keep ridin' with Biden!
