Anthony Bourdain gave an interview in the Daily Beast flogging the new season of his show on CNN. Apparently he goes to West Virginia and “gets real” with the folks about why they love their guns and support Trump.

He couches it in the usual “We have to have a conversation, everyone needs to listen, we have to understand their fears” stuff.

I’m so sick of hearing this. I’m so fucking tired of hearing I need to understand why people, who are so proud of being Christian and American, looked at a bigoted, immoral monster like Trump and said “Yeah, that’s our guy.”

I just don’t get it. Or I do, and it makes me sick to my stomach.

Yeah, I read that. Bourdain, as much as I like him, got taken in by hanging with locals.

But their minds will never be changed. He’s entitled to his opinion, but he’s just wrong on this.
