George Clooney Fires Back at Trump’s New Year’s Eve Insults

Getty Images George Clooney has fired back at Donald Trump after the president posted a nasty rant about the star actor and his wife on New Year’s Eve. Clooney, 64, told Deadline : “I totally agree with the current president. We have to make America great again. We’ll start in November.” Clooney is referring to the 2026 midterms, which are now just 11 months away—an election that early polls suggest will knock Republicans out of power in Congress, where they currently hold slim majorities in the House and Senate. Clooney’s response was much more subtle than the 79-year-old Trump’s fiery post to Truth Social. “Good News! George and Amal Clooney, two of the worst political prognosticators of all time, have officially become citizens of France, which is, sadly, in the midst of a major crime problem because of their absolutely horrendous handling of immigration, much like we had under Sleepy Joe Biden,” Trump posted in part. The president added, “Clooney got more publicity for politics than he did for his very few, and totally mediocre, movies. He wasn’t a movie star at all, he was just an average guy who complained, constantly, about common sense in politics. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!” Read it at Deadline Read more at The Daily Beast.
