During an appearance on The Late Show, George Clooney sat down with Stephen Colbert to discuss his Broadway show, Good Night, and Good Luck. Clooney subtly critiqued the political landscape without directly naming Donald Trump, referring to him metaphorically as 'the elephant always in the room.' Reflecting on his electoral experiences since 1980, Clooney emphasized the essence of democracy despite personal losses. He also expressed hope for President Biden's success, highlighting the national need for effective leadership and mentioning his endorsement of Kamala Harris in the 2024 presidential election discourse.
I have lost a lot of elections. The first time I voted, it was 1980. I was a Carter guy and Reagan won. I lost to some Bushes and I won with some Clintons and Obamas, and I lost, you know, this is democracy and this is how it works.
What am I supposed to do, storm the f**king Capitol? You know, it didn't work out. That is what happens.
Good for you, I hope you do well because our country needs it, and we'll meet you in three and a half years and see where we go next.
Clooney sarcastically called being a Democrat nothing but fun, referencing the political climate while promoting his Broadway show.
