“Crazy Rich Asians” star and “The Daily Show” correspondent Ronny Chieng let slip on Tuesday how he really feels about people who voted for President-elect Donald Trump on Election Day.
The actor and comedian appeared on ABC’s “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” and told the host that he thinks there’s nothing wrong with voters having a conservative mindset, but remarked that there are many stupid ones in the country.
“There’s nothing inherently evil or bad about [a] conservative mindset, I just think that we would like to have conservatives who aren’t f—ing morons,” Chieng said, as Kimmel and the audience roared with laughter.
Kimmel prompted the discussion by asking Chieng about his experience covering Election Night on “The Daily Show,” wondering if the comedian and the show’s team were prepared for the results that evening.
The comedian compared watching the results coming in that night to witnessing a slow-motion car crash.
“Yeah we were,” Chieng replied.
