Hollywood actor and filmmaker George Clooney has hit back after US President Donald Trump mocked him over acquiring French citizenship.
đïž What sparked the clash?
On New Yearâs Eve, Trump posted on Truth Social, criticising Clooneyâs move and claiming the actor gained more attention from politics than from what he called Clooneyâs âmediocre movies.â He ended the post with his familiar slogan: âMAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!â
đŹ Clooneyâs sharp response
Clooney responded with a pointed remark that quickly went viral:
âI totally agree with the current president. We have to make America great again. Weâll start in November.â
The comment was widely interpreted as a political jab, hinting at Democratic hopes of regaining control of Congress in the upcoming elections.
đ«đ· Why French citizenship?
Clooneyâs wife Amal Clooney and their two children have also become French citizens. The actor has previously praised Franceâs strong privacy laws, saying they offer better protection for his children from intrusive paparazzi.
đ°ïž A friendship turned sour
In a recent interview, Clooney reflected on his past relationship with Trump, describing him as once being a âbig goofball,â before adding, âThat all changed.â He also criticised major US networks such as ABC and CBS for settling lawsuits filed by Trump instead of fighting them in court.
What began as a jab over citizenship has now evolved into a sharper political exchange, highlighting growing tensions between Hollywood figures and Trump as the US election season approaches.
