So a whole bunch of regular people VOTED for Joe Biden to be the Democratic Party’s nominee. But now, “very special people” like celebrities, pundits and other politicians think it’s OK to overturn the will of all the regular people.

You know, because we gotta save democracy.

Opinion | George Clooney: I Love Joe Biden. But We Need a New Nominee.

I saw Biden three weeks ago at my fund-raiser for him. It’s devastating to say it, but he is not the same man he was, and he won’t win this fall.

@ceartas 14 million of us. But hey. We're not movie stars

@YusufToropov

I can’t help wondering who George Clooney voted for in California primary.

@ceartas Votes really aren't the issue. He played a doctor on TV. He's wealthy. He's very well connected. He must know better than us. This is exactly what the Democratic party has always stood for.

Not.

@ceartas A modest proposal. Every single time some pundit or influencer or celebrity gasbag attempts to justify fast forwarding over the fact that 14 million people voted for this man to be the nominee of the party, we reply by sharing this link:

@ceartas And if I may add. The arrogance of a movie star inserting himself in the role that the 25th Amendment is designed to play is so toxically undemocratic as to beggar all description.

What Clooney is saying is: the entire Cabinet doesn't know what it's doing, but he does. They're constitutional officers; he's a guy who's been associated with some good films.

2 words. Each 1 syllable. 2nd="off."
