Longtime allies of former President Barack Obama are pouncing on President Joe Biden as he and his family fight to maintain power within the White House.
Biden and his campaign have insisted that the president is not going anywhere, despite deafening calls for him to end his reelection bid from fellow Democrats. His defiance has not done much to mute the critics within his own party. Individuals in Obama’s orbit are increasingly piling on, arguing that Biden should step aside due to his age and mental decline.

Perhaps the biggest domino yet fell Wednesday, when Democratic donor and actor George Clooney admitted that he noticed a severe decline in Biden at a recent Hollywood fundraiser. Clooney, notably, is a close personal friend of Obama’s dating back years.
Clooney hosted the fundraiser in California that featured former President Bill Clinton, Obama and Biden. In a viral clip, Biden was seen freezing for several seconds before Obama grabs his wrist and appears to lead him off stage. The White House decried the video as a “cheap fake,” falsely saying it was edited to make the president look bad.
Clooney, however, wrote Wednesday that the president was showing signs of cognitive decline at the fundraiser.
“In the last four years, he’s won many of the battles he’s faced,” Clooney wrote in a New York Times op-ed. “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.”
Clooney’s assessment was quickly backed up by other notable Obama allies, such as David Axelrod, Obama’s chief campaign strategist, and Jon Favreau, a former aide who co-founded the successful liberal media company, Crooked Media.
“That is devastating,” Axelrod said of Clooney’s op-ed. “It’s devastating, and it’s what people fear.”
“It was not surprising to any of us who were at the fundraiser,” Favreau added.
Axelrod, and Favreau’s colleagues at Crooked Media, have been calling for Biden to drop out since the debate. After Biden’s primetime interview with ABC News, Axelrod wrote in a CNN column that “duty and love of country” should compel Biden to “step aside.”
