Ahead of the November U.S. presidential election President Joe Biden’s allies, the former House Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi and celebrity financial donor George Clooney have cast doubt on his re-election bid.
Pelosi held back from showing a confident voice of support for Biden in an interview on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” on Wednesday, saying that “it’s up to the president to decide if he is going to run.”
She indicated that she couldn’t say whether Biden has the endorsement of her fellow congressional Democrats, avoiding a direct answer by saying “people want him to make that decision. Not me.”
Hollywood actor George Clooney went a step further and called on Biden to drop out of the presidential race.
The Oscar winner, in a guest article published in the New York Times on Wednesday, said that while he is “a lifelong Democrat” and loves Joe Biden, “the one battle he cannot win is the fight against time.”
Clooney stressed that 81-year-old Biden’s age cannot be reversed and that “we are not going to win in November with this president.”
