Just two weeks ago Donald Trumpâs defiant fist-pump as he survived an assassinâs bullet looked to have killed Democrat hopes of the White House. But if a week in politics is a long time, a fortnight is an eternity.
And now, with Joe Biden standing down and Barack Obama backing Vice President Kamala Harris for the nomination, it seems Americaâs liberals might get their upbeat Hollywood ending after all.
Some of the planetâs biggest A-listers â from Beyonce and George Clooney to Cher and Katy Perry â are determined to push the leftâs new leading lady to a blockbuster victory.
Polls suggest sheâs gone from underdog to evenly poised...and Hollywood is just getting started.
Happy to put its money where its mouth is, up to $100million (ÂŁ78million) has already flooded in from Tinseltown to campaign coffers.
Tens of millions more are expected from a mooted celebrity fundraiser.
Clooney, whose withering verdict on failing Biden helped end his candidacy, is rumoured to be considering a gala for Kamala next month.
