.. .On New Year's Eve, Trump posted on Truth Social: "Good News! George and Amal Clooney, two of the worst political prognosticators of all time, have officially become citizens of France which is, sadly, in the midst of a major crime problem because of their absolutely horrendous handling of immigration." ...

As opposed to the United States, which may be in the midst of a major crime problem (committed by Federal authorities) because of the way Pres Trump is handling illegal immigration?

What I am careful of are aliases such as your current alias that seem to revel more in disruption than in information.

Do try harder to be revelent.

Trump Slams Clooneys for Acquiring French Citizenship

Not a problem as long as they don't run for elected office here in the US. Those with dual citizenship here in the US should have to drop their citizenship in other countries in order to serve in elected office here.

Trump continued his attack by dismissing Clooney's film career. "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, about common sense in politics," Trump wrote.

Remember when the most powerful man on Earth didn't lower himself to attack celebrities for their opinions?

Trump is a child. A mean one.
