George Clooney French Citizenship Trump Reaction: "Worst Political Prognosticators"
President Trump bashes George Clooney following his move to acquire French citizenship, citing France's immigration problems and calling Clooney's films 'mediocre.'
The gloves are off in a new trans-Atlantic feud. After Hollywood star George Clooney and his wife Amal Clooney officially became French citizens, U.S. President Donald Trump didn't waste a second to launch a scathing attack. According to an official decree seen by AFP on Monday, the 64-year-old Oscar winner and his family have legally traded their primary ties for the European Union.
George Clooney French citizenship Trump reaction and policy jabs
Writing on his Truth Social network, Trump mocked the couple as some of the "worst political prognosticators of all time." He seized the moment to criticize France's handling of immigration, claiming the country is in the midst of a "horrendous" crime problem. The President compared the situation in Paris to the U.S. under his predecessor, Joe Biden.
Clooney got more publicity for politics than he did for his very few, and totally mediocre, movies. He wasn’t a movie star at all, he was just an average guy who complained, constantly.
Controversy in Paris: A 'Double Standard'?
The move hasn't been entirely smooth in France either. A junior member of President Emmanuel Macron's government slammed the decision, citing Clooney's poor French skills. This criticism comes as France implements tougher language requirements for all other citizenship applicants starting January 1, 2026, leading to accusations of a celebrity "double standard."
