Hollywood star George Clooney called on President Joe Biden to step aside from the presidential race, weeks after he hosted a fundraiser for the president’s campaign.

Writing an opinion piece for the New York Times on Wednesday, Clooney said the Biden people saw during the president’s disastrous debate less than two weeks ago was the “same man” he saw at the high-profile fundraiser last month.

“In the last four years, he’s won many of the battles he’s faced,” Clooney wrote. “But the one battle he cannot win is the fight against time. None of us can. It’s devastating to say it, but the Joe Biden I was with three weeks ago at the fund-raiser was not the Joe ‘big F-ing deal’ Biden of 2010. He wasn’t even the Joe Biden of 2020. He was the same man we all witnessed at the debate.”
