Bourdain said people he’s met during his travels are anxious about Trump’s White House run.
“I mean, there is a sense of utter disbelief, everywhere I go, at Mr. Trump, that is for sure,” he said. “I mean, I’m talking among our allies, England, France, Germany, Italy.”
“It’s the worst thing you can find,” Bourdain added. “It’s one thing to be despised or held in contempt or feared, but to be ridiculed or pitied is a terrible thing.
“Eight years ago, if a candidate for a major party was endorsed by the American Nazi Party and the Aryan Nation it’s something [major figures] would feel obliged to denounce. Now, that apparently isn’t reason enough to say anything.”
