Donald Trump slams actor George Clooney for urging Joe Biden to exit Presidential Race

Former US president, Donald Trump described George Clooney as a “fake movie” actor and said that he should “get out of politics,” for urging Joe Biden to exit the presidential race.

The Hollywood actor is one of several Hollywood names in recent days to call on Biden to drop out of the race against Trump.

Clooney, who co-hosted a huge Hollywood fundraiser for Biden in June that raised a record $28 million, published his op-ed following Biden’s disastrous performance in the first 2024 presidential debate against Trump.

The actor said Biden had saved democracy before and could do so again by stepping aside and giving Democrats a better shot at beating Trump.

In a tirade on Truth Social, Trump disparaged Clooney as a “fake movie star” and demanded he “get out of politics and go back to television.”

“So now fake movie actor George Clooney, who never came close to making a great movie, is getting into the act,” Trump raged.

“He’s turned on Crooked Joe like the rats they both are. What does Clooney know about anything? He uses the Democrat ‘talking point’ that Biden, the WORST President in the history of the United States, has ‘saved our Democracy.

Daily reminder!!!

The Supreme Court has declared that it is unconstitutional for state governors to hold onto funds meant for Local Government (LG) administrations.

In a lead judgement read by Justice Emmanuel Agim held that the apex court observed that the refusal of the state government on financial autonomy for local governments has gone on for over two decades.

The apex court held that local governments have since stopped receiving the money meant for them from the state governors who act in their stead. Justice Agim noted that the 774 local government councils in the country should manage their funds themselves.

He dismissed the preliminary objections of the defendants (state governors).

In the suit filed by the Attorney-General of the Federation (AGF), Lateef Fagbemi, the Federal Government sought an order preventing the governors from arbitrarily dissolving democratically elected councils.

Justice Agim said the AGF has the right to institute the suit and protect the constitution.

The apex court consequently directed that Local Government allocation from the Federation Account should be paid directly to them henceforth.
