Mr Eastwood called the current American generation ‘pus**’, adding that he would go for Trump over Hillary because Hillary has made too much money from being a politician.
“What Trump is onto is he’s just saying what’s on his mind,” he explained. “And sometimes it’s not so good. And sometimes it’s, I mean, I can understand where he’s coming from, but I don’t always agree with it.”
The 86-year-old actor acknowledged the Billionaire is “racist,” citing Trump’s hateful remarks against Federal Judge Gonzalo Curiel but says the press overreact towards his statements.
“You know, he’s a racist now because he’s talked about this judge. And yeah, it’s a dumb thing to say. I mean, to predicate your opinion on the fact that the guy was born to Mexican parents or something,” Eastwood 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 f–king get over it. It’s a sad time in history,” he continued.
“We’re really in a p—y generation. Everybody’s walking on eggshells,” he said. “We see people accusing people of being racist and all kinds of stuff. When I grew up, those things weren’t called racist.”
“I’d have to go for Trump. You know, ’cause she’s declared that she’s gonna follow in Obama’s footsteps,” he said. “She’s made a lot of dough out of being a politician. I gave up dough to be a politician. I’m sure that Ronald Reagan gave up dough to be a politician,” he added.
