Actor-director Clint Eastwood believes that Donald Trump is benefitting from a trend in American culture by saying what he believes, despite criticism from all sides. “He’s onto something, because secretly everybody’s getting tired of political correctness, kissing up,” Clint Eastwood said in an interview with Esquire. “That’s the kiss-ass generation we’re in right now. We’re really in a pussy generation. Everybody’s walking on eggshells.” Eastwood specifically cited Trump’s comments criticizing a judge who was born to Mexican parents, but indicated he was tired of the media fueled controversy “He’s said a lot of dumb things. So have all of them. Both sides,” he said “But everybody —the press and everybody’s going, ‘Oh, well, that’s racist,’ and they’re making a big hoodoo out of it. Just fucking get over it. It’s a sad time in history.” Eastwood said that he hadn’t spoken to Trump about an endorsement, and hadn’t endorsed anyone for president. He clarified that he didn’t agree with everything that Trump said, but indicated that it was refreshing to see an unfiltered politician. “He’s just saying what’s on his mind and sometimes it’s not so good,” he said. “And sometimes it’s … I mean, I can understand where he’s coming from, but I don’t always agree with it.” But given the choice between Trump or Clinton, Eastwood suggested that he would probably vote for Trump because Clinton represented more of what Obama did to the country. “I’d have to go for Trump … you know, ’cause she’s declared that she’s gonna follow in Obama’s footsteps,” he said, calling Clinton “a tough voice to listen to for four years.” Eastwood criticized political figures who were using their position to make money, citing “too much funny business on both sides of the aisle.” “She’s made a lot of dough out of being a politician,” he said, referring to Clinton. Overall, however, Eastwood seemed dissatisfied with both Trump and Clinton. “Everybody is boring everybody. It’s boring to listen to all this shit. It’s boring to listen to these candidates,” he said. He added that an ideal candidate should more understanding instead of trying to insult his way to victory. “[G]et in there and get it done,” he advised, citing his father. “Kick ass and take names.”

A uniquely truthful and apropos characterization….I really like it. And I really like old Clint Eastwood….he always speaks his mind. At his age of 86, I’ll say he is close enough to be of The Greatest Generation … God bless you, Clint … And you too, Duke …
He was 15 when WW II ended. You're pretty desperate to shoehorn a lot of extras into that WW II generation, aren't you? It seems to be eating you up.
Nah, not eating me up at all. It is just impossible not to notice the difference in the way people approached things and reacted to them in those days….compared to now. Ah. those were the good old days … [TC, I get no videos to post, using the same procedure I have always used. Please, you do a test post of this video here].

At the end of the day, which one is cleaner?
It is just impossible not to notice the difference in the way people Yea, and when compared to these early days … By the ways these men all acted … Of the 55 delegates to the Constitutional Convention,
They still have those signs today,but they are mostly in the north,and they read "Race of Kings" and "Crackas"
It is just impossible not to notice the difference in the way people It is just impossible not to notice the difference in the way people approached Starting with the black lives matter riots ferguson …
It is just impossible not to notice the difference in the way people approached Now we move to Milwaukee … Again, segregation was a bad thing … But was it as terrible a thing as … What you have just seen in my 3 photo presentations? You can’t possibly convince anyone that things are better now than they were back then … You were stupid to even start trying….admit it!
When people post things like this what runs through my mind is they want social justice and retribution from the past. Basically lets make whitey pay. I say people were much better off all the way around back then(even black people). It was not perfect but why though out the baby with the dirty bath water. Why not fix things as we go instead of destroying everything in hopes of creating something that can not be created in hate? Give me the 50's any day over today! A society with moral decay is not a society at all.
