Clint Eastwood explains why Donald Trump is so popular

Hint: It's because the rest of you suck.

Clint Eastwood, the actor known for a great number of movies and one very strange convention speech, "does not always agree" with Donald Trump. But he has a few thoughts on why Donald Trump has risen to his current position as Republican nutcase-in-chief.

But he's onto something, because secretly everybody's getting tired of political correctness, kissing up. That's the kiss-ass generation we're in right now. We're really in a pussy generation. Everybody's walking on eggshells. We see people accusing people of being racist and all kinds of stuff. When I grew up, those things weren't called racist. [...]

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. He's said a lot of dumb things. So have all of them. Both sides. 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.

Huh. Well alrighty then.
