Filmmaker Michael Moore has criticized Democrat party leaders for pushing President Joe Biden, who is 81 years old, to continue his re-election campaign amidst concerns about his performance and health. In an MSNBC interview and on his Rumble show, Moore expressed concern for the president’s well-being, referring to the situation as “elder abuse.” He called Biden’s debate performance “heart-breaking” and questioned who was looking out for him during such events. While acknowledging that he has disagreed with some of Biden’s policies in the past, Moore said he would stand up for the president to protect him from any potential elder abuse.
Moore is not alone in his concerns; other entertainment industry leaders have also called for Biden to step down from the campaign. These include Endeavor CEO Ari Emanuel, Netflix co-founder Reed Hastings, veteran studio boss Barry Diller, and Lost creator Damon Lindelof. Rob Reiner, one of Biden’s most loyal Hollywood supporters, even went as far as calling on the president to “step down.
In his Rumble show, Moore questioned whether President Biden is fit enough to remain in office for another four years, highlighting the need for a comprehensive evaluation of the president’s abilities and decision-making processes.
