Hollywood’s resident silver fox, George Clooney, has once again put his political popcorn bucket down to tell us how he really feels about Joe Biden’s re-election attempt—and, as expected, Donald Trump responded the only way he knows how: with a scorched-earth roast session on social media.

Clooney—actor, tequila mogul, and lifelong Democrat—sat down for a 60 Minutes interview on Sunday, where he discussed his Broadway play Good Night and Good Luck. (Yes, because nothing says “let’s talk politics” like a Broadway play about a journalist from the 1950s.)

Clooney Vs. Biden: Round Two
At one point, interviewer Jon Wertheim poked the bear and asked about Clooney’s now-infamous New York Times essay where he basically told Biden to take a well-earned nap and let someone else (Kamala Harris) take the wheel. Clooney doubled down, saying he was very happy he wrote the piece, because Biden’s age was, in his words, “a situation”—which, in Hollywood terms, means yikes.

Clooney claimed he had a front-row seat to the “situation” at a fundraiser and was so surprised by Biden’s demeanor that he felt compelled to grab his quill (okay, laptop) and publish the harsh truth. He also managed to sneak in a subtle jab at Trump about facts vs. “Fake News,” because what’s a political interview without a little bipartisan shade?

Trump Logs On (Uh Oh)
Of course, Donald Trump caught wind of the interview and immediately fired up his rant machine on Truth Social. In classic Trump fashion, he referred to Clooney as a “second-rate movie star” (bold words from a guy who cameoed in Home Alone 2), a “failed political pundit”, and a variety of other playground insults that were surely drafted between golf swings.

So, What Did We Learn?
Nothing new.
Clooney still thinks Biden should have retired.
Trump still thinks everyone who disagrees with him is a total loser.
And somewhere in the middle of all this, America sighs deeply and wonders if we can all just go back to debating whether The Bachelor was rigged.

Stay tuned—because the next round of Hollywood vs. Washington is probably only a tweet away.
