This comes after Clooney, 63, expressed his belief that the public would prevent Trump from reclaiming the presidency, as reported by the Daily Mail.
According to The Post Millennial, Democrats are scrambling to find a scapegoat for Harris's loss, and Clooney has emerged as a potential target. The actor reportedly sought alternatives to President Joe Biden after efforts to oust him from the Democratic presidential ticket.
A source close to Clooney told DailyMail.com, "George feels that the backlash he is getting for Kamala losing is not at all warranted. He thinks it is completely unfair to try and make him a scapegoat for her loss." The source added that Clooney, despite his significant investment of time and money into the Democratic Party, is considering stepping back due to his disillusionment.

The source further clarified Clooney's position, stating, "When he wrote his op-ed, George did not say 'Biden is not fit to be president, choose Kamala.' The Democrats removed President Joe Biden as their presidential nominee." Clooney's op-ed was published shortly after he raised $30 million for Biden's re-election campaign at a fundraiser.

Clooney, one of the first celebrities to call for Biden's withdrawal from the Democratic presidential race, penned an op-ed in The New York Times, reportedly at the behest of former President Barack Obama. The two often collaborate on Democratic strategy. "While Obama did not encourage or advise Clooney to say what he said, he also didn’t object to it," Politico reported, citing "people familiar with their exchange." Both were present at a recent Hollywood fundraiser aimed at raising funds for Biden's re-election campaign.
