In case you're wondering, this is the human rights lawyer Amal Clooney's husband. Not sure why his opinion was sought though.

“George Clooney married Amal Alamuddin this year. Amal is a human rights lawyer who worked on the Enron case, an adviser to Kofi Annan on Syria, and was appointed to a three-person commission investigating rules of war violations in the Gaza strip. So tonight her husband is getting a lifetime achievement award.” - Tina Fey hosting 2015 Golden Globes

Cause he’s a celebrity, and no one has heard of his wife. In this day and age, it seems people care more about celebrity, influencer, and right leaning comedians political views when it comes to politics compared to other more qualified people who speak on the subject, and use their ideas to heavily influence their vote, which has led us into this shitstorm we are currently experiencing.

> “Some say Donald Trump is fine. But if anyone says he wants to end a civilization, that’s a war crime,” Clooney said on Wednesday in Cuneo, Italy, according to Italian news agency ANSA. The actor was speaking in front of 3,000 high school students at a special event organized by the Clooney Foundation for Justice.
> “You can still support the conservative point of view, but there must be a line of decency, and we must not cross it,” he added.
> “I’m worried about NATO,” Clooney said. “It has ensured that Europe, but also the rest of the world, has been safe. Dismantling an institution like this worries me. Aside from many mistakes, I believe the U.S. [with NATO] has also done many extraordinary things that have stood the test of time.”

? Biden currently has stage 4 cancer. Why on Earth was he a consideration? 82 years old during the election.
The DNC knew exactly what it was doing by keeping him propped up. It is absolutely shameful. An open primary and acknowledgement of Biden health and future should have occured. It did not and Trump swept the nation.

The process of removing him from office could begin this minute, but the Republican party refuses to admit what a demonstrably failed President Donald Trump is because they have far too much to gain by remaining in power.
This has nothing to do with patriotism, or loyalty to the country. The leader of our country credibly threatened the world with a type of Armageddon it has never before seen - with the chance of nuclear weapons being dropped oddly lurking as a distinct possibility - and yet this *STILL* isn't enough.
We're fucked.

If civilians uttering a threat at another civilian is a crime, then why not hold a public figure to the same standard at the minimum?

Pissed when I heard this interview last year, it’s so privileged to say oh we’ll get through it. Tell that to all the folks suffering in immigration detention centers right now - the pregnant children in detention camps because they’ve been assaulted while in custody.
