Anthony Bourdain Says Contempt for Middle Americans by ‘Eastern Liberals’ Explains Trump Election

“The utter contempt with which privileged Eastern liberals such as myself discuss red-state, gun-country, working-class America as ridiculous and morons and rubes is largely responsible for the upswell of rage and contempt and desire to pull down the temple that we’re seeing now,” Bourdain said.

Donald Trump Has Fooled the Rubes But Doesn't Understand the Rubes
So this is the assclown the rubes want for president

if you look at my quote you'll notice I wrote that in a thread claiming a hacked email said anthony weiner was seeking revenge against hillary clinton, for stealing his wife to have a lesbian affair... sorry but if you believe that than your a fucking rube there is no nicer way to put it. What would anthony bourdain like me to call them ignorant pigfucking inbred morons? is that nicer? people are too nice to the neo nazi racist shithead trumptards most need to be kicked in the teeth

Hillary Clinton lost because trump was such a joke candidate most democrats stayed home assuming a landslide victory. If the election was held again tomorrow trump would lose
 
Too much food must have clogged his brain. Or one could say capitalist elites won the election. Take your pick, although the second group will be the winners. Better thoughts below.

'Bad Narratives Going Forward in the Age of Trump' by Paul Street

Bad Narratives Going Forward in the Age of Trump

"So now seemed like a good time to go over various theories floating around in political science and political reporting and see where they stand, now that this turbulent political year is drawing to a close. By the time I was done writing it up for Slate, I came up with 19 lessons learned. I thank my colleague Bob Erikson for help on some of these."

19 Things We Learned from the 2016 Election - Statistical Modeling, Causal Inference, and Social Science

Just letting you know, your avatar has been shown, in the court of general opinion to be a corrupt has been. You might want to change that. Added to that, it is about 40 years out of date.

Here is something more current.

Authentic, unaltered photo, only nine years old, is probably more reflective of her mood, don't you think?

This would make you a much nicer Avi. for ya. ;)
 
Most of us on the right have been saying this since the election.


Anthony Bourdain is blaming liberals like himself as the reason Donald Trump won the 2016 election.

In an interview with Reason magazine published Thursday, the host of the CNN culinary travel show Parts Unknown, slammed the “self-congratulatory” and “privileged left” for their disdain for working-class Americans.

“The utter contempt with which privileged Eastern liberals such as myself discuss red-state, gun-country, working-class America as ridiculous and morons and rubes is largely responsible for the upswell of rage and contempt and desire to pull down the temple that we’re seeing now,” Bourdain said.

He continued, “I’ve spent a lot of time in gun-country, God-fearing America. There are a hell of a lot of nice people out there, who are doing what everyone else in this world is trying to do: the best they can to get by, and take care of themselves and the people they love.”

The 60-year-old chef went on to criticize fellow liberals for denying conservatives “their basic humanity and legitimacy of their views” and “mock them at every turn, and treat them with contempt.”

Bourdain went on to say these issues aren’t specific to the United States. He says Trump’s election is part of a “global trend” towards nationalism “that should be of concern to everyone.”

I understand why you posted that but I have to say this: Anthony Boudain is a know-nothing egotistical failed chef who has a TV show. NOTHING he says should ever be taken seriously. As far as the point he makes in your op, even a broken clock is right twice a day.

I actually thought she would win in August and when I wrote it, Republicans when nuts with crowing and strutting.

The reason was because the media was in the bag for Trump.

Trump has gotten nearly $3 billion in ‘free’ advertising

4620-1480655478-1317fc6a227af711b70f83a813d3f698.png

How can anyone fight that much free media time. And remember, they didn't start with the pu$$y grabbing until the very end. They never talked about the Trump U scam. No one investigated the illegal Trump Foundation.

Say what you want, but the media was in Trump's pocket.

This is what you call a "net gain".
 
“The utter contempt with which privileged Eastern liberals such as myself discuss red-state, gun-country, working-class America as ridiculous and morons and rubes is largely responsible for the upswell of rage and contempt and desire to pull down the temple that we’re seeing now,” Bourdain said.

But maybe they really are rubes...

Here's the thing.... Howard Beale got it right a long time ago.



We have a corporate structure that has gotten very good at telling the Rubes what to think, how to dress and what to buy...

Trump just figured out how to get some of the rubes to vote for him...

And now he's putting together a cabinet of people who are going to screw the Rubes. They'll find their Social Security and Medicare Privatized and will wonder what went wrong.



From the OP.


"The 60-year-old chef went on to criticize fellow liberals for denying conservatives “their basic humanity and legitimacy of their views” and “mock them at every turn, and treat them with contempt.”
"

Indeed! If you can`t believe a 60 year old chef just who can you believe? He`s got enough qualifications to join the Trump cabinet. Assistant Secretary of State who reports directly to Putin perhaps?



And you attack the messenger instead of addressing his message.

Typical.

Correll attacks the messenger not the message. August West is dead on.

The media was in the bag for Hillary, which is precisely why they gave Trump so much coverage.

They figured he would hang himself, and they were happy to do everything in their power to help him.

The fact remains that Bourdain is right.

Doesn't look like Bourdain's ideological allies are going to be quick to agree with him.

I, for one, am shocked.

The elite left that controls the D party, loves to ridicule Americans they find unacceptable. They have done it for a long time.

The truly amazing thing is your average Joe Blow Dem voter, like many we see on this forum, buy into the ridicule and foment it. Not realizing they are being duped.
I`m not an elite but I ridicule people like you all the time. Bourdain is an elite who is clueless about the level of religious and racial hatred in rural America. That`s what put the goon in the Whitehouse.
eligious and racial hatred in rural America.

that's is why the yahoos are known as uneducated rubes
 
Democrats should be encouraged to show even more disdain and contempt for ordinary Americans.

As an example, calling ordinary Americans rubes should become such an accepted part of the lexicon that the term is used freely and openly.

We started in 2010, took a step in 2014 and got 30 states and the presidency. 2018 should get more states with the end of the Democrats in 2020.
