The Hollywood actor is a prominent donor to the Democratic Party in the United States. In recent years, that has regularly led to criticism from President Trump, who has called him a “second-rate movie star,” among other things. According to Clooney, it didn’t bother him much. “It’s not my job to keep the President of the United States happy.”
What else?
“It’s not my job to keep the President of the United States happy.”
That’s Jeffery Epstein’s job
That was.
I, for one, welcome them to jlai.lu.
Anyone would have a better life in France instead of the US but good for him. Glad to see there’s still some backbone in Hollywood.
How is earning another nation’s citizenship having a backbone?
My family has been in that area he’s moved to for a couple generations. It’s really nice and it’s the south, but it’s very far away from the busy/fancy parts of the côte d’azur. I can definitely see why they’d choose going there. The only downside to this whole region is it votes pretty right wing and you can sometimes feel it in conversations with the locals, but since I’m sure they’re still pretty insulated they probably don’t feel that.
Wish I had the money to escape the United States too
How much does it take?
More than just a plane ticket. You need a marketable skill that is easily transferred, rent, food, utilities, new transportation, new licensing, and coverage for enough months until you can get the job. Also, the immigration fees. Basically, immigration is for the rich who can use money as a cushion or for the impoverished who have nothing to lose by assuming the risk.
I hear real estate in Iran will be cheap.
I’m a regular guy who saved up for years while studying another language and gtfo of the US. It’s an option.
congrats man. welcome 2 the club.
I did that too and I got tired of it and came back and now it looks like the country’s fucked. Thanks a lot guys
If you did it once, you can do it again. Nowhere is perfect, though. If I had it to do over, I’d probably pick one of the Nordics instead of Japan.
Even ethnic Japanese people born outside Japan have a hard time there
Probably a harder time as they’re often expected to know all the unwritten rules and behave a certain way. I know people who have struggled a lot to reintegrate. Many end up working for themselves and/or in entertainment if they have a more western mondset
Sure
The rich and famous will live their lives in a bubble no matter where they reside. And Clooney is still going to hear about Trump’s criticisms no matter where he lives.

Wtf is wrong with these comments. Is lemmy full of hate bots now aswell?
Trump has won twice, and you still blame “bots”.
It’s people. Just people.
God i know but i want them to be bots.
ITT: people not realizing his wife was born in Lebanon. Are they safer than your average non-pure-white family? Absolutely. But they have legitimate reasons to be scared.
Also apparently she’s a human rights lawyer so she’s bound to have pissed off republicans one way or another already.
She was a key part of the team prosecuting the war crimes case against Israel
Yeah I get hating rich people, because fuck inequality, that’s true, but the Clooneys seem like pretty decent people to me as far as rich celebrities are concerned.
He for sure has too much money(Google said $500 mill) but he’s small time compared to the richest and the corporations that are doing the most damage to the future. I doubt more than a few folks interested in eating the rich are champing at the bit to get at Clooney.
George Clooney did a pretty good job (just like all the other actors) in the 2000 Coen Brothers film “O Brother Where Art Thou”. Seriously!
My hair!
We’re in a tight spot!
Well, ain’t this place a geographical oddity! Two weeks from everywhere!
Well VP Vances wife is an immigrant, as is Trump:s wife
Women are just “things” to those people. They may feel bad about not buying American, but it doesn’t affect them.
Consistency is not necessary for fascism.
And haven’t you seen how elated they appear to be about their choices (assuming they had a choice to begin with)?
Yeah I imagine Vance’s wife might have an unfortunate accident any day now.
Swallowed by a couch
What does her wife being from Lebanon has anything to do with this? She has British and French citizenship so it is easy for him to get the citizenship and I bet she is safe from ICE on virtue of having shit ton of money, other 2 nationalities and being an international lawyer.

That she’s obviously not safe in the country and people are mad that they decided to uproot their family and leave?

I’m sure that being part of the team that being one of the authors of this article makes you popular with Netanyahu’s sock puppet’s pet anti-immigration criminal organization lmao. She’s also represented other people that the US government doesn’t exactly agree with. There are a LOT of good reasons for Trump to disappear her. She did exactly the one thing that the shit ton of money allowed her to do: Escaped. I hope everyone else who can and needs to, does as well. The bigger the brain drain, the better - Trump’s empire won’t last as long.
Him and the lead singer for AFI are models of what men should be more like.
Davey Havok? What did he do?
Also, first time I’m learning his name.
Fucking rock!
Can’t find the picture. But dude, much like Pierce, is an objectively gorgeous person. And he didn’t fall into the typical "I need young and skinny arm candy."you see so often in the entertainment industry.
Proudly brought a beautiful full figured woman to some award ceremony. Hold on, I’ll look it up.
Don’t you mean French actor Le George Clooney?
French cinema world busy updating all their leaderboards about best paid actors etc.
George Le Clooney
And they still let him in after that Louvre heist?!
Ocean’s 14 is about to be authentic as fuck
This is the best comment.
Where were you when they were shooting “The Night Of” ?
