Misleading
Rewrite it.
- Eastwood did not endorse anyone for President in 2016[1], but he supported Democrat Mike Bloomberg in 2020, to the surprise of many[2][3].

(A) Eastwood is not a registered Democrat, therefore he cannot vote in a Democrat primary for a Democrat candidate; (B) placing the false allegation behind a questionable source from September 2020 that refers to Democrat primaries, with the deceptive implication that Bloomberg ran in the General Election, is the sort of pure utter nonsense when can expect from our UK friends who have absolutely no understanding of the American political system, yet try to interfere in U.S. elections.

- Upon further research, I see that I made an error. The first site refers to 2016, and is refuted by this: https://www.irishtimes.com/news/world/us/clint-eastwood-tired-of-political-correctness-supports-trump-1.2746208 The rest of it is utter garbage from garbage sites.

- IMO, this effort to turn Eastwood into a pansie is irreparable and fails. RobSFree Kyle! 17:33, September 25, 2021 (EDT)
- Seems to me that there's some confusion surrounding my wording of the sentence. What I meant to say was that in an interview, Eastwood voiced support for Bloomberg during his campaign in early 2020, as the primaries were going on. He stated that, in his opinion, "the best thing we could do is just get Mike Bloomberg in there" [4]. While I understand how my lack of detail could mislead an uninformed reader, you make it sound like there's some kind of malicious intent behind it, as if I'm attempting to defame Eastwood. I can assure you that I'm definitely not trying to make him a "pansie", either. I've got nothing but respect for the man, despite the difference in political views.

- You from the UK? cause you haven't a clue what you're talking about. A registered Republican cannot vote in a Democrat primary. Hence, a registered Republican cannot "endorse" any Democrat primary candidate. Likewise, in the 2016 general election, Eastwood endorsed Trump. RobSFree Kyle! 12:31, September 27, 2021 (EDT)
