Clooney touched on President Joe Biden, former president Donald Trump and his own future in politics while visiting with BBC One’s Andrew Marr on The Andrew Marr Show.
Marr asked about Biden’s dwindling poll numbers, and Clooney isn’t panicked about his friend’s tenure in the White House so far.
“It’s like taking a battered child and thinking everything’s going to be OK his first day of school,” the two-time Oscar winner responded. “There’s a lot of things that have to be repaired. There’s a lot of healing that has to happen, and it’s gonna take time. Poll numbers come up and go down. I would expect them to come back up again. Donald Trump’s numbers went up and down.”
About Trump, by the way: “He’s gonna be a factor for a while. It’s so funny because, you know, he was just this knucklehead. I knew him before he was a president. He was just a guy who was chasing girls. Every time you went out, he’d come over and be like, ‘What’s the name of that girl?’ That’s all he was.”
Clooney insisted that he has no plans to try his own hand at politics professionally “because I actually would like to have a nice life.”
“I turned 60 this year, and I had a conversation with my wife [Amal],” he continued. “We were working a lot, as we both do, and I said, ‘We have to think of these as the halcyon years.’ If we have our health, which we do—knock on wood, for a minute—and I’m 60, and I can still play basketball and still do the things I love. But in 20 years, I’ll be 80, and that’s a real number. Doesn’t matter how much you work out, doesn’t matter what you eat, you’re 80. And so, I said, ‘We have to make sure we enjoy and live these years in the best possible way.'”
For now, the focus is on The Tender Bar. Adapted from J.R. Moehringer’s memoir by the same name, the film chronicles Moehringer’s coming of age in Long Island as he “seeks out father figures among the patrons at his uncle’s bar.” Uncle Charlie is portrayed by Ben Affleck.

Original Article: George Clooney remembers Donald Trump as ‘this knucklehead’ interested in ‘chasing girls’ (msn.com)
Clooney has a stupidity problem. Bidens been the one touching and groping women and little girls not President Trump.
No, you’ve got it wrong. Women have come forward about Trump, his daughters best friend said he was creepy and was way too affectionate to Ivanka. There’s even pictures of that. Biden is an affectionate, caring man, and some people are put off by that. Trump has been very inappropriate with many women. Remember her is the one that said, “grab em by the pussys”!
Hes never really been an A list actor. B+ maybe.
And what accomplishments, George have you had other than being an overpaid entertainer? Hell a prostitute qualifies as an entertainer and some of them have been far superior than you – as entertainers. Now he’s become a mediocre entertainer and a liar. I’ll take the prostitute any day! Clooney should just shut up and stay in Europe.
So He is NORMAL, He likes Women and He is a MAN. that is the way it is suppose to be. Man and Woman, together not LBGTQ
Clooney, people who live in glass houses should not throw stones . Maybe someday you will get over yourself.
