Read our privacy policy George Clooney appears to have mended fences with President Joe Biden as he and fellow A-lister Julia Roberts joined a star-studded Hollywood fundraising gala on Saturday night which raised $28million. Kimmel moderated a discussion with Biden and former president Barack Obama, where the three took turns blasting Biden’s presumed 2024 opponent, Donald Trump. Joe Biden and Barack Obama pose for a photo with actors George Clooney and Julia Roberts at a fundraiser Saturday evening in Los Angeles “Look, part of what has happened in the last several years is we’ve normalized behavior that used to be disqualified,” said the former Democratic president. We believed in making sure that we didn’t make fun of, that we did not try to politicize our military, that we respected the ballot.” Biden joined in, mocking Trump over his Covid-era suggestion that sunlight or cleaners with bleach could somehow be used to fight the virus within the human body, a suggestion made at an early 2020 White House press conference attended by top federal health experts.
