George Clooney uses his platform at the Cannes Film Festival to denounce The Donald

George Clooney is making his disdain for Donald Trump known not just here in the United States but also overseas.

The actor was interviewed by members of the international press at the Cannes Film Festival on Thursday afternoon, and took some time to share with them his opinion of Trump.

'There's not going to be a President Donald Trump,' said Clooney, who held a fundraiser for Hillary Clinton last month in Los Angeles where tickets reportedly went for $353,400 per couple.

'That's not going to happen. Fear is not going to be something that drives our country. We're not going to be scared of Muslims or immigrants or women. We're not actually afraid of anything.'

I’m disgusted; pulling this BS at a film festival.>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

I am delighted. Donald gets so much free advertising.....these denunciations actually have proven to HELP the Trump campaign.

As to Clooney and Europe? The EU is about to fall apart as the victim of a Muslim immigrant invasion and demographic warfare. The days of the Cannes film festival are numbered.
Soon it will be drowned out by Alahyahoo Waxbar!

We in America will not allow that evolution. Trump is our champion of prevention, and Clooney’s on the WRONG side of history.

Yet another Hollywood BUBBLE BRAIN caught up in his own self-importance.

Far too many of these clowns like Clooney think their opinion actually carries weight in the real world.

I hope that this is truly the beginning of his end, which can’t happen soon enough to suit me.

Nor for me either. Clooney, DiCaprio, Obama and Kerry all being devout Climate Change hoax pushers, this has come out:

UN climate chief candidly admits goal is not to help environment but to end capitalism

Snips: At a news conference last week in Brussels, Christiana Figueres, executive secretary of U.N.’s Framework Convention on Climate Change, admitted that the goal of environmental activists is not to save the world from ecological calamity but to destroy capitalism.

“This is the first time in the history of mankind that we are setting ourselves the task of intentionally, within a defined period of time, to change the economic development model that has been reigning for at least 150 years, since the Industrial Revolution,” she said.

His arrogance tends to leak through every one of his performances, so I tend to avoid his movies anyway. Just don’t like the guy.

Clooney and his cohorts yearn for the days of Clinton, when Clinton was actually deferring to the opinions of celebs and Clooney and his cohorts want the Obama drama to continue. Trump symbolizes the permanent end to those days of Hollywood glory.

He’s losing the plot by doing this at Cannes since even celebs view Cannes as sacrosanct and not the place for politics.

Oh, didn’t know that.

What do they do if they go political, not invite them next year?

I sincerely hope he is afraid of his life and property with the agenda he has pushed. With what he’s said and done he should rightly be terrified of someone going “I’m sick enough of scum like you pi$$ing on me and mine to do something about it.”

Loony Clooney. Never worked a day in his life. Or accomplished anything academically. Creep’s a total loser.

No one cares about these candied poppinjays anymore. One of the reasons they are so desperate to ‘make a difference’ today is that 90% of their film work has become utterly boring.
