Standing in sharp opposition to President Trump, Clooney has been a vocal critic of some his more questionable policies. His philanthropic gestures and dedication to humanitarian causes show that he is a man of principle and empathy, something sadly lacking in the current administration.
People have been sharing some of Clooney's positive initiatives, as well as a perfect put down to Trump himself, and it's making us think. If Americans really do insist on a 'celebrity' President, they could do a lot worse than good ol' Gorgeous George! Scroll down below to check them out for yourself, and let us know what you think in the comments!

Here's How George Clooney Responded When Trump Accused Him Of Being A "Hollywood Elite"
Ladies and Gentlemen 7 years ago
Can someone please slap the s**t out that smirk off Trmup's face... its so annoying every time i see it...
Herb Eaversmells 7 years ago
Trump loved hollywood and celebrities before he became president. He'll he even hosted a show called celebrity apprentice
Kathleen Moore 7 years ago
Thank you George for your honesty and forthrightness. Rump in no businessm, that’s for sure. I am quite sure the majority of his money has been made mistreating people and always looking for the best way to “hornswaggle” the other guy.

I am not going to apologize for saying this...I'd rather see an intellectual like George Clooney speaking the "TRUTH" than listen to all the uneducated F***tards who think...umm...I don't...do they really think that DT cares about them?! Listen, the man tries to bully people like George Clooney...who the f**k does that? I'd rather see a group of 5th graders take over the Oval office than listen to another outrageous statement out of Trump's uneducated mouth!

Okay, George. Keep it coming. Trump is probably one of the worst presidents ever. His ego is overwhelming.

Hey George- Can you toss some over to say to all the extreme poor in the Appalachians?
Marlowe Fitzpatrik 7 years ago
@Lios: "let's not pretend it's a lot, just because it's a big number". Well. Let's see. 21 million means that for 21 years, you could spend exactly 1 million dollars a year. That's without interest... 21 million means: 21 000 000 $. So what if that's "just" 2% of his income? If I would give 2% of my (monthly) income, it would be around 20 € - what would anyone be able to do with 20 €? Sure, it's more when you set it in relation, but it's still only 20 bucks. That's won't last long...

He Gave 14 Of His Friends $1 Million Dollars Each In Briefcases, Just For Being Good Friends
George's close pal and Rande Gerber claimed the actor once gave 14 of his close friends - which he referred to as "The Boys" - $1 million each as a surprise gift in 2013. "George had called me and 'The Boys' and said, 'Hey, mark September 27th, 2013, on your calendar. Everyone’s going to come to my house for dinner. 'George begins to say, 'Listen, I want you guys to know how much you've meant to me and how much you mean to me in my life,'" Gerber recalled. "'I came to L.A., I slept on your couch. I'm so fortunate in my life to have all of you and I couldn't be where I am today without all of you. So, it was really important to me that while we’re still all here together, that I give back. So I want you all to open your suitcases. We're in shock'"

Following The 9/11 Attacks, Clooney Was A Primary Organizer On A Telethon That Featured Dozens Of Hollywood Stars And Raised Us $129 Million For The United Way
Cody Eriksen 7 years ago
I applaud him for doing so... too bad United Way is one of the biggest offenders about money going directly to the intended disaster. (IE: approx 5-10 cents for every dollar is spent on that particular disaster. Red Cross is another big offender). I wish I can find the link! Salvation army is ranked one of the highest (if not the highest) for the amount of money going towards something. Please, don not misconstrue this as I don't volunteer or donate when I can, because I do or that I don't appreciate what these foundations/charities do. I live in Sacramento and with that Camp Fire that has killed at least 80 people and destroyed a whole community and without these peoples help, god, I can only imagine how worse all this can be in relief efforts.

It is important to research your charities and know where the money goes. Don't rely on them being a big name!

Arnold Schwarzenegger Once Challenged Him To A Drinking Contest And Was Quick To Regret It
Clooney recalls, “He was bragging that he could outdrink any Irishman. You don’t do that. It’s not right. He had this bar and restaurant, I don’t know if he still has it, and he had a big dinner. James Caan was there and all these people were there and he was drinking peach schnapps. And it’s clear and horrible. I did a couple of shots of that and I was like, ‘I’m not gonna hang with this guy. He’s gonna kill me.’ So, I gave the waitress $500 to keep bringing me shots of water and bring him shots of peach schnapps. Every five minutes, he’d be sitting there talking to (his wife) Maria and I’d be like, ‘Hey, let’s go! Come on superstud, let’s go!’ I got him literally about 15 shots in and he was just sitting there slumped over the table.”

George Clooney Is The Reason South Park Was Picked Up By Comedy Central
During the mid-1990s the junior executive at Fox, Brian Graden, asked his friends Matt Stone and Trey Parker to make an animated Christmas card based on a five-minute stop-motion movie they made at the University of Colorado. Graden made 35 VHS copies and sent them to his friends, that shared it with their friends. One copy ended up in George Clooney's hands. Executive producer Anne Garefino recalls "Before we even began working on the series, the fact that George Clooney had made hundreds of VHS copies of The Spirit of Christmas and sent them out to all his friends was already the stuff of Hollywood history. When he did the voice of Sparky, Stan's gay dog [for episode four], he did the voice remotely. We never met him until he finally came by the studio to do a voice for the South Park movie."

There's people that say he made so much money and donated only a small fraction of it to so and so but he donates money to many charities. He is a generous guy with a huge heart (and he's a beautiful man don't forget)
Death Metal Kitty 7 years ago
Somehow critics conveniently forget that he still has bills to pay and a family to care for. Nope. All they see is a man with lots of money, and expect him to give even more away. C'mon; he earned that money (one definitely hopes it is all clean and legitimate), why should he be expected to give it all away?

Think how great the world could be if every rich person was this generous. Obviously, once you reach a certain level of "richness", giving away large chunks of money doen't put a dent into your lifestyle, so there's no reason for the other rich 1%-ers not to do so as well (well except for the fact that them and their families are nothing but greedy a*s bastards).
