‘Absolute cowardice’: Obama ‘hiding’ behind George Clooney on Biden’s mental state

Newsweek Opinion Editor Batya Ungar-Sargon has called Barack Obama “hiding” behind George Clooney’s op-ed telling Joe Biden to step down “absolute cowardice”.
“The perfidy, the lying, the media which had access to President Biden and knew this and kept it from the American people and now turning on a dime in lockstep to push him out because the American people found out on their own what the truth is,” she told Sky News Australia host James Morrow.
Her comments follow new reports suggesting George Clooney consulted Barack Obama before publishing his op-ed calling for Joe Biden to step down from the presidential race.

    Obama has been idolized in the media but he is the one that brought up to the place we are today: a truly divided society. He planted the wedge that has torn down everything we held dear as a country.

    @@bevduff6776 I am not in the slightest a fan of the current vice president. However, she is of sound mind. The president is suffering from some form of dementia (we have not been told what type). Some types of dementia can be accompanied by bouts of irrational anger that can severely impair decision making. Kamala Harris is mentally capable of listening to and taking advice and is less likely to make irrational decisions based on rage and fear. The interests of the USA need to be considered ahead of any short term political considerations and the supposed ‘democratic’ rights of those Democrat primary voters. The USA is a constitutional republic before it is a democracy, the safety of the country needs to be put first. Furthermore, the vice president is a constitutional role, the same cannot be said of the role currently being played by Jill and Hunter Biden.

Trump might not be a gentleman but he certainly was a strong President the world was at peace he had the respect of world leaders and at least feared by many dictators that today are running a muck due to Bidens policies and mental health. I understand the difference between a Democracy and Constitutional Republic but there must be some legislation to call an early election without stripping Biden completely of his dignity as his family members don’t seem to care

    t is probably correct that Clooney called Obama before sending his article to the NY Times. As a friend of Obama he absolutely should. But Clooney has enough money and aura with superstar status that he does not need to fear retaliation from anyone. Clooney is a free man. I thank him for being honest with all of us by saying what he saw: Biden is not in a condition to run- and probably should let Kamala finish his term. That is why the 25th was written for.

    I laugh to think about Trump answering even one of those questions. Trump is not an Option!! Biden and Democracy, or Trump, Autocracy, and his Manifesto Project 2025? If you haven't already, be sure to google it! Hmmm, the choice seems pretty simple to me. Who amongst us hasn't made a guffaw or two?
