Here is George Clooney response after Trump accused him of being a "Hollywood elite."
"Here’s the thing: I grew up in Kentucky. I sold insurance door-to-door. I sold ladies’ shoes. I worked at an all-night liquor store. I would buy suits that were too big and too long and cut the bottom of the pants off to make ties so I’d have a tie to go on job interviews. I grew up understanding what it was like to not have health insurance for eight years.
So this idea that I’m somehow the “Hollywood elite” and this guy who takes a shit in a gold toilet is somehow the man of the people is laughable.
People in Hollywood, for the most part, are people from the Midwest who moved to Hollywood to have a career. So this idea of “coastal elites” living in a bubble is ridiculous. Who lives in a bigger bubble?
He lives in a gold tower and has twelve people in his company. He doesn’t run a corporation of hundreds of thousands of people he employs and takes care of. He ran a company of twelve people!
When you direct a film you have seven different unions all wanting different things, you have to find consensus with all of them, and you have to get them moving in the same direction.
He’s never had to do any of that kind of stuff. I just look at it and I laugh when I see him say “Hollywood elite.” Hollywood elite? I don’t have a star on Hollywood Boulevard, Donald Trump has a star on Hollywood Boulevard! Fuck you!"

Found this in my son’s folder “draw something new you’ll do in Kindergarten”. I thought it was Rapunzel’s hair going down the castle with the king. He said “no mommy, it’s me being brave hiding when a shooter comes again.” Wake up America. We NEED change

👀 GREAT NEWS: I just registered students at Ohio State University to defeat Jim Jordan and… LOOK AT THE LINE IN THIS VIDEO!!!
And it gets even better! These students are charged up to fight back against the Jordan's attempts to...
– take away voting rights
– control women
– and put God and Guns over EVERYTHING else in America.
The Gen Z youth I talked to say TONS of their friends are joining the fight. And they say it with a smile. Their excitement is contagious! 😊
Look, I'll be real with you: Some days on the campaign trail are hard. Running against Jim Jordan means running into a few unpleasant people who see me as a real threat to his power (they ain't wrong).
But this wasn’t one of those days.
⚡ I'm charged up, but I need your help to double down:
Because I'm hell bent on CRUSHING horrible candidates trying to destroy our future I want to register 10 TIMES more Gen Z voters – and replicate this crowd in EVERY critical district in Ohio.
Will you help them do it? 💪
See below! 🧵
Young people: The GOP is floating an amendment to raise the voting age from 18 to 25. Vivek Ramaswamy is openly promoting it. They’re scared of your votes and want to silence you. Act appropriately in 2024.
