SUMMARY
Actor George Clooney has urged President Joe Biden to step down from the 2024 presidential race following a disappointing debate performance. In an op-ed for the New York Times, Clooney lauded Biden's past contributions, stating, "Joe Biden is a hero; he saved democracy in 2020. We need him to do it again in 2024." However, Clooney emphasized that Biden's age has become a significant concern, noting, "The one battle he cannot win is the fight against time. None of us can." Clooney, who recently hosted a fundraiser for Biden, highlighted the stark difference in Biden's demeanor, saying, "The Joe Biden I was with three weeks ago at the fundraiser was not the Joe ‘big F-ing deal’ Biden of 2010. He wasn’t even the Joe Biden of 2020. He was the same man we all witnessed at the debate."
