Backing Biden! D.L. Hughley Slams “Cowardly” George Clooney Op-Ed On ‘TMZ Live’

As we saw in his viral back-and-forth with fellow comedic icon Mo’Nique earlier this year, our guy D.L. Hughley is never one to hold his tongue when it comes to speaking his mind.

He took a quick break from The D.L. Hughley Show to stop by TMZ Live this past Wednesday (July 10) and give his two cents on the recent critique’s of incumbent President Joe Biden’s ability to perform in his electoral campaign against Republican opponent, Donald Trump.

D.L. had a few choice words for George Clooney in particular following the publication of his controversial op-ed for The New York Times that called for a new nominee for the Democratic Party.

More on his stance below, via TMZ:

“D.L. says the whole tone of George’s NYT op-ed letter calling on Biden to step down is ‘insulting’ … and he finds it alarming Clooney never mentioned Project 2025, a series of proposals D.L. warns will do serious damage to Americans, especially minorities.

A defiant D.L. says it’s ridiculous folks are making such a big deal about Biden’s qualifications for president when Trump is now a convicted felon who owes a ton of money to a woman he was found to have raped.”

He didn’t make his point without a touch a humor, or course. His opinion ended on a hilarious note, stating that Clooney is one to talk given that, in his words, “he’s not the man he was in Ocean’s Eleven.” Burn!

Hughley concluded his humble opinion with a half-serious joke that if many out there will be voting for a convicted felon, then he can — again, in his words! — “vote for a cadaver.”

All jokes aside, can you see where D.L. Hughley is coming from? Take a look below at what some are saying on social media about his critique of George Clooney and the ageism being inflicted on President Biden in general:

2. DL Hughley is RIGHT. TMZ is Wrong. George Clooney is Wrong. BTW – 23 hours later, polls show Biden in the lead over Trump. Not that I put much stock in polls, because We know Trump paid Liberty University and others to publish fake numbers in 2016. That’s a fact. Be brave Dems!

3. Per usual, lets leave it up to the Media and Celebrities to make their feelings known on any subject and create further distractions. Hughley and Clooney are simply influencers; not leaders by the way.

5. D.L. Hughley is absolutely correct. George Clooney never mentioned Project 2025 in his op-ed calling for Joe Biden to drop out. Hughley said it affects people of color more than any other demographic.

7. As he should. Happy to see a black man calling this out. Celebrities are saying Biden should step down because he’s old but they’re not saying Trump should step down even though he’s a convicted felon. Make it make sense
