Trump's never really been loved by anyone. He's been a punchline up until he found his niche the past couple years.

So Bourdain has taken his show and supported the economies of places like Iran, Myanmar, Libya, Vietnam, etc. but has a problem with Trump's politics?

My question is has he ever eaten in one of Trump's restaurants or stayed in one of his hotels before? If so, then what's changed?

No Problem for me, he is just another on the list of TV shows, Movie personnel, etc.. that I insure I do not contribute in the slightest way possible to their future income.

Money Talks and Bull Shite Walks. We can beat them if we stick together, this is about as Non Violent as it gets and is powerful, very powerful.

He better not do that in any Muslim countries, it could be perceived as an invitation to cut it off.

I hope that Trump turns "Rules for Radicals" around on them - mock them publicly - call them out by name - Go medieval on their asses.

Make them the laughing stock of the nation.

This PC bullshite has infected too many minds already - time to put in six ft under.

Anyone who cannot deal with facts need to be institutionalized.

Anyone besides a white Anglo straight male was unusual and frowned upon then for elected office.

A lot of people didn't even consider Italians white back then

Trump never invited him to eat at his restaurant anyway.

He was on the no table available list

Yeah. I've always ignored his leftist stuff because it usually wasn't over the top.

This season was insane. He laid it on thick in several episodes.


I think CNN drove it more political than Travel would.

This season was unbearable.

I already stopped watching the tabloid network that hosts his programs (CNN).

Bourdain is a guy who has one time or another alienated just about everyone that he had ever come into contact with. He was the Keith Olbermann of the food world

Actually, I hold that Olbermann is of a higher moral character

Posters on this board actually think Trump is a successful and well-respected businessman. I read some quote that Trump is a poor person's idea of what a rich person is. This board reinforces that bigly
