George Clooney dismisses Trump insulting him as a ‘second-rate’ movie star: ‘I don’t care’
George Clooney is brushing off insults from President Donald Trump.
In an April 21 appearance on “CBS Mornings,” the “Good Night, and Good Luck” star, 63, responded to a social media post where Trump slammed him as a “second-rate movie ‘star’ and failed political pundit.” The dig was a response to a “60 Minutes” segment where Clooney discussed the importance of freedom of the press.
“I don’t care,” Clooney told CBS of Trump’s comments about him. “I’ve known Donald Trump for a long time. My job is not to please the president of the United States. My job is to try to tell the truth when I can and when I have the opportunity.”
He added, “I’m well aware of the idea that people will not like that. There will be people who criticize that. Elon Musk has weighed in every once in a while. That’s their right do it, and it’s my right to say the other side.”
While talking about his role as broadcast journalist Edward R. Murrow in the play “Good Night, and Good Luck,” Clooney told “60 Minutes” in a March segment that “we’re seeing this idea of using government to scare or fine or use corporations — to make journalists smaller,” adding that “governments don’t like the freedom of the press.”
Trump slams ‘puff piece’ from ’60 Minutes’ where George Clooney encourages free press
The “Ocean’s Eleven” star was alluding to lawsuits brought by Trump against various news organizations, including CBS’ TV newsmagazine “60 Minutes.” He continued, “It’s a fight that is for the ages, it will continue.”
In a Truth Social post on March 23, Trump slammed “60 Minutes” for its “puff piece” on Clooney, who the president said “dumped (former President Joe Biden) like a dog.” Trump was referring to Clooney writing an op-ed in The New York Times last year arguing that Democrats should replace Biden as their nominee in the presidential election, a suggestion that ultimately came to pass.
George Clooney says Democrats were ‘not telling the truth’ about Biden before op-ed
In an interview with CNN’s Jake Tapper, Clooney said this op-ed was his “civic duty.”
I’m a Democrat in Kentucky, so I get it,” he said. “When I saw people on my side of the street not telling the truth, I thought that was time to (say something).”
After Trump won the election, Clooney said on “The Late Show” in February that he was taking the same attitude that he encourages his son to have when he loses chess matches.
“He gets upset, and I (tell him), listen, you shake the guy’s hand, you say, ‘Good game, I’ll get you next time,'” Clooney said. “You’ve got to live by those rules, which is, ‘Alright, good. Good for you. Go. I hope you do well, because our country needs it, and then we’ll meet you in three-and-a-half years and see where we go next.'”
The CNN town hall was meant to be ordinary—until Donald Trump detonated the moment. On live television, he insulted Michelle Obama, calling her “dumb.” The room went cold. Social media exploded. CNN rushed to commercial. But the real response came fast. Within an hour, Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett was live on MSNBC—and she didn’t blink. She laid out Michelle Obama’s credentials: Princeton. Harvard. Global leadership. Then she turned the spotlight back on Trump, asking the question everyone was thinking: why does he fear intelligent, accomplished Black women? The clips went viral instantly. Interview after interview, Crockett dismantled Trump’s record—failed ventures, court battles, scandals—stacking them against Michelle Obama’s achievements. Then she delivered the line that stopped everything: “You think she’s dumb? Debate her. Name the time, topic, and place.” The challenge trended worldwide. Trump’s team went silent. Days later, the answer came. He wouldn’t debate. Analysts called it a retreat. Crockett became a national force. Her message was clear: bullies crumble when challenged.
BREAKING NEWS: Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce stunned an elite audience with a message no one expected—and then reinforced it with decisive action. At a black-tie charity gala in Kansas City, surrounded by Fortune 500 executives, top NFL donors, and celebrities, Kelce stepped onstage to accept the National Community Impact Award. What followed was anything but a routine acceptance speech. He skipped polished pleasantries and spoke directly to the room’s power brokers. “If you are blessed with success, use it to lift others,” he said. “No one should celebrate victories while children lack opportunity. If you have more than you need, it doesn’t truly belong to you—it belongs to those who need hope.” The ballroom fell silent. Guests described a frozen moment—no applause, no smiles—just the weight of uncomfortable truth hanging in the air. Kelce wasn’t criticizing wealth; he was calling for responsibility. And he didn’t stop at words. That night, he announced he is donating all of his endorsement and off-field earnings this season to fund after-school programs, tutoring centers, and scholarships for underserved kids in Kansas City and his hometown communities—proving leadership means showing up, not just speaking out.

Short. Sharp. Unshakable: “God’s plan is bigger than this moment. I appreciate all the love. I’ll attack this recovery the same way I attack everything—with faith, focus, and determination.” The words cut through the shock, a beacon of calm amid chaos. Social media exploded—teammates, former players, coaches, fans—all rallying, praying, reminding the world: setbacks do not define greatness; resilience does. Inside the locker room, silence gave way to unity. A team bound by one goal: fight for their quarterback. The season hangs in the balance, but one truth remains undeniable—Patrick Mahomes may be down, but he is far from finished.

Then came the line that froze the crowd: “If you can’t see a doctor, don’t worry—he’ll save you a dance in his ballroom.” Calm but firm, Mahomes continued: “America doesn’t need another ballroom. We need a backbone.” The room rose to its feet, cheering for nearly a minute. Videos went viral, with fans calling him “the people’s voice—strong, steady, impossible to ignore.” As Mahomes stepped away, he paused and looked back, ready to say more. Silence fell.
