Acclaimed actress and Hillary Clinton loyal Meryl Streep was "shocked" at colleague Clint Eastwood's recent interview with Esquire magazine, in which he said he would vote for Donald Trump and said that it would be difficult to listen to Mrs. Clinton's voice for four years.
Newsbusters parsed excerpts from Streep's response, which was recently published in Variety magazine:
Speaking to Variety magazine, Streep expressed “shock” at Eastwood’s comments: “I’ll have to speak to him…I’ll have to correct that! I’m shocked. I really am. Because he’s more — I would have thought he would be more sensitive than that.”
It’s fair to wonder how shocking it was for Streep when Eastwood was an outspoken supporter of Mitt Romney in the 2012 presidential election where he took the stage at the RNC and famously (and hilariously) compared President Barack Obama to an empty chair.
Streep seems to think that people act differently when they are alone or with only a few people, but when together in large groups, it’s another story. She told Variety:
"When you get a lot of people in a group, it can go good or it can go bad in a way that [overrides] each individual person… aggregate of everybody’s emotion, it’s such a powerful thing. You can see it in the Trump rallies, where people I just know, in their living rooms, would be better people, are driven to the worst possibilities by the bloodlust in a crowd. It just gets ginned up and they’re outside of themselves. They’re behaving as a larger unit, not just themselves."
As always, members of the Left live in their own bubble and regurgitate only the narratives heard on mainstream media. It's been documented that the so-called "volatile" nature of Trump supporters at their candidate's rallies is more than an overblown media construct, and that by and large Trump rallies and those in attendance are largely good-natured. What's more, what liberals see -- or think they see -- in others, they can never see in themselves. We wonder if Streep would have talked the same way about the "bloodlust" that had in fact become par for the course at Bernie Sanders' rallies and supporter protests -- replete with American and Israeli flag burnings.
The Clinton camp boasts that it has or, will, garner some 93 percent of those Bernie supporters, which then should give people like Streep reason to pause.
But it won't. Because in the minds of out-of-touch celebrities, only they and theirs are enlightened. And those who disagree are Nazis.
There’s nothing there that needs correcting. Eastwood is 100% right as always.

” There is enough stuff to do then spending $40 to go and have popcorn.”
Who on earth,other than kids, buys popcorn at the movies?
.
Jesters and minstrels ... what don’t they know?
LOL! Because Eastwood is known for his sensitive portrayals! /s
Sparsely attended rallys for the Felon running for office seem to be fueled by complacency about her PROVEN lies and criminal behaviour.
I hope he tells her she’s still ugly as a mud fence.
The last movie ticket I purchased was for the last Harry Potter. The one before that was previous HP. I’ve gone 2-3 times since with free tickets and was bored out of my mind. Can’t get through some of their stuff on tv knowing who they are in real life, especially the gun grabbers.
Popcorn would be the ONLY reason I’d go to a movie!
It’s imperative she find one of those famous bridges and jumps. A guaranteed lost cause, this one.
“I’ll have to speak to him…I’ll have to correct that! I’m shocked. I really am. Because he’s more — I would have thought he would be more sensitive than that.””
Eastwoods response to this should be great.
Not just a Hollywood liberal stooge but one who simply can’t believe another famous actor might NOT be a liberal stooge.
“I’ll have to speak to him…I’ll have to correct that”
That’s the elitist attitude prevalent among all liberals/progressives.
“only they and theirs are enlightened. And those who disagree are Nazis.”
Speaking to Variety magazine, Streep expressed “shock” at Eastwood’s comments: “I’ll have to speak to him…I’ll have to correct that! I’m shocked. I really am. Because he’s more — I would have thought he would be more sensitive than that.”
