George Clooney last night condemned Donald Trump’s comments claiming postal votes in the US election are rigged as a sign of the “insanity” of today’s political climate.
“It’s insanity. We have the President of the United States right now trying to say that our mail-in ballots could be fraudulent,” the actor said.
He Zoomed in to London from Los Angeles, where he, his lawyer wife Amal (pictured with him, right) and their twins have been “stuck” all summer due to Covid-19, for a discussion with Edith Bowman at a BFI London Film Festival event.

“There have been something like nine actual frauds of a single mail-in ballot over the last 40 years when there have been like a billion votes,” Clooney said, adding “we are working with different sets of facts [in the public sphere today], and I worry about that.”
Clooney also discussed his upcoming Netflix film, The Midnight Sky, in which he plays a 70-year-old scientist living alone in the Arctic and working to stop a group of astronauts from returning home following a global catastrophe.
He sports a long beard and shaven head for the role and joked that Amal “was really happy when the movie was over”.[/size][/size]

Ohh, can't wait to see the zoom interview.

Damn, it's going to be Sunday 18th Oct at 4pm. As I think we knew already but I'd already forgotten.
