In a recent video, Dave Portnoy, the founder of Barstool Sports, criticized George Clooney for taking weeks to acknowledge that President Biden is a “vegetable.” Clooney had raised millions of dollars for Biden in a star-studded fundraiser but waited three weeks to make his statement.
Portnoy mockingly praised Clooney for his delayed revelation, sarcastically calling him a hero for finally speaking out. Clooney had recently penned a guest essay in the New York Times, urging Biden to step down from the 2024 race, citing concerns about his mental acuity. Clooney described Biden as a different man from his previous appearances, including the 2020 debates.
Portnoy’s criticism of Clooney’s timing and words highlights the tension within the political landscape. The video and the subsequent discussion on social media demonstrate the scrutiny and debate surrounding the current administration and its supporters. As the conversation continues to evolve, it is clear that public figures like Portnoy and Clooney will continue to play a role in shaping public opinion and discourse.
