George Clooney responds after Donald Trump slams him for becoming citizen of another country
The remark was a clear reference to the upcoming US midterm elections, held halfway through each presidential term, which determine control of Congress.
The exchange comes as Clooney also reflected on his past relationship with Trump in a new interview with Variety. He said the two were once on friendly terms before Trump entered politics, describing him as outgoing and social at the time, but adding that “everything changed.”
Clooney also criticised ABC and CBS for settling defamation lawsuits brought by Trump, arguing that fighting those cases could have altered the current political climate.
