<p>The hosts of ABC&#8217;s &#8220;The View&#8221; lashed out at actor George Clooney during Thursday&#8217;s broadcast, complaining about his decision to publish an op-ed calling on President Joe Biden to bow out of the 2024 presidential race.</p>
<p>Joy Behar led the charge, arguing that if Clooney — who hosted a fundraiser for Biden recently — had concerns about Biden, he should have addressed them in private rather than splashing them across the pages of a newspaper.</p>
<p>&#8220;President Biden is fighting right now for his political future,&#8221; she began. &#8220;Democratic National Committee Chair Jaime Harrison &#8230; is still in Biden&#8217;s corner, but he&#8217;s losing more high-profile support. George Clooney wrote an op-ed piece in The New York Times claiming that after he saw Biden&#8217;s condition at the recent fundraiser, he doesn&#8217;t think he&#8217;s up for the gig. George Clooney, couldn&#8217;t he tell them that in person, for God&#8217;s sake? He has to write an op-ed piece?&#8221;</p>
<p>Behar went on to complain about comments from Jon Favreau, a speechwriter for former President Barack Obama, who said that there was no way to escape Biden&#8217;s declining health.</p>

<p dir="ltr" lang="en">&#8220;I don&#8217;t think they understand what&#8217;s at stake yet,&#8221; Behar attacked the intelligence of the American people.<br />
She falsely claimed Biden &#8220;saved the economy.&#8221;<br />
&#8220;Why doesn&#8217;t George Clooney mention that in his op-ed piece?&#8221; <a href="https://t.co/VqrcRksgrY">pic.twitter.com/VqrcRksgrY</a></p>

<p>&#8220;I don&#8217;t think they understand what&#8217;s at stake yet,&#8221; Behar said of the American people — and then chastised Clooney for not reminding everyone that Biden &#8220;saved the economy.&#8221;</p>
<p>Cohost Ana Navarro joined in, lamenting the fact that Americans had been talking about Biden&#8217;s apparent cognitive decline for two weeks — since the disastrous debate against former President Donald Trump —and added, &#8220;I will be damned if I will use whatever little platform I have to demean and weaken our commander-in-chief and the one man standing between Donald Trump.&#8221;</p>
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
<p dir="ltr" lang="en">Sunny Hostin also lashes out at George Clooney for speaking out about Biden&#8217;s mental decline.<br />
&#8220;I don&#8217;t like that George Clooney did this and aired this dirty laundry to the world&#8221; she huffed. &#8220;This should be happening privately&#8230;This is the man who saved the soul of our country&#8221; <a href="https://t.co/v8i5QKdzjL">pic.twitter.com/v8i5QKdzjL</a></p>

<p>Sunny Hostin brought the conversation back around to Behar&#8217;s initial complaint, saying that she believed Clooney should have brought the matter to Biden privately instead.</p>
<p>&#8220;I don&#8217;t like that George Clooney did this &#8230; and aired this dirty laundry to the world. &#8230; [T]his should be happening privately &#8230; This is the man who saved the soul of our country,&#8221; she said.</p>
