One of the all time greats...
Has certainly come a long way since his days playing Rowdy Yates in Rawhide...
I liked Grand Torino and the Good The Bad and the Ugly as being amongst his best.
I remember reading his autobiography...
In it early in his heyday he is quoted as saying to a producer once..."When are we
going to stop making violent movies"
The producers response was..."when the public stop paying at the box office to watch them..."

I lost a bit of respect for Clint when he came out promoting Bernie.

I lost a lot of respect for him in 2010 at the Replican Convention...

I've yet to find any evidence that is readily available of him endorsing anybody other than Trump.

Cant understand why people lose respect for someone simply because of his political "beliefs"
I admire the man because of his acting/directing....
I have also admired many other actors male and female...the list is endless....
I really don't give a toss about their political beliefs....

I normally wouldn't either but I am sick of the Hollywood 'elites' trying to sway voters in any direction just because they are famous.

Debra Messing and her idiot co-star tried black banning all Trump supporters working in the industry. They can keep their political opinions to themselves as far as I am concerned because some idiots actually DO listen to them because they think they are the anointed ones.
