George Clooney: ‘Everybody worries' about being targeted by Trump
George Clooney, a vocal critic of President Trump, says fears of being targeted by the administration are widespread. 'Everybody worries about it,' Clooney told Anderson Cooper in a Wednesday interview on CNN. 'But if you spend your life worrying about things, then you won't do things,' the 'Good Night, and Good Luck' actor said. 'Like everybody, we have a family and we have a life and we try to live and do the things as the best example for our kids,' the Academy Award winner, who's married to human rights attorney Amal Clooney, told the 'Anderson Cooper 360' host. 'I want to be able to look at my kids in the eye and say where we stood and what we did at certain times in history. And I have no problem with that,' said Clooney, one of Hollywood's most prominent Democratic supporters. Last year, Clooney famously penned a New York Times op-ed calling for then-President Biden to abandon his 2024 reelection campaign, citing the commander in chief's age. Biden withdrew from the race weeks later and Clooney backed then-Vice President Kamala Harris's White House bid. In the interview with Cooper, Clooney expressed skepticism when asked if 'Trumpism lasts beyond this term.' 'I don't think so. I think it'd be very hard to do it,' Clooney, 64, replied. 'Remember this: Donald Trump is a celebrity. That's what he is. I mean, he has a star on Hollywood Boulevard,' he said of the former 'Celebrity Apprentice' host, who's responded to Clooney's criticism in the past by calling him a 'second rate movie star.' 'I don't have a star. I'm not lobbying for one, I'm just saying,' Clooney added with a grin. 'He's a celebrity, and he's the president [of the] United States, and so he has been elected. Duly elected — fair deal. I'm not complaining about that. That's how it works. That's how this democracy works,' Clooney continued. 'But he's also a celebrity, and he is charming. And to the people who like him, they think he's funny — to a great many others, they don't,' he said of Trump. 'So when [Trump] is finished — and he will be finished — they're going to have to go looking for someone who can deliver the message that he delivered with the same kind of charisma, and they don't have that.'

Don't try to embrace it and try funny things with it,'" continued Astley. Less than 1,000 songs have reached the Billion Streams club on Spotify.
