The second day of the NATO summit in Washington is clouded by questions over President Joe Biden’s reelection campaign and his fitness to serve in office. A seventh House Democrat has publicly called on Biden to end his campaign, while Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi stopped short of saying he should continue.
Meanwhile, former President Donald Trump returned to the campaign trail yesterday in Florida to rally supporters and tease his vice president pick.
Movie star and lifelong Democrat George Clooney is adding his voice to calls for Biden to leave the presidential race.
Clooney said in a New York Times opinion piece Wednesday that he loves Biden, but the party would lose the presidential race and any control in Congress with him as the nominee.
“This isn’t only my opinion; this is the opinion of every senator and congress member and governor that I’ve spoken with in private,” wrote Clooney, who has hosted high-dollar Hollywood fundraisers.
Clooney argued the party should pick a new nominee at its convention next month.
