Following her reading at the New York Public Library Wednesday, Padma Lakshmi called gold-plated GOP frontrunner Donald Trump "insane," telling Variety, "Even if he wasn’t the racist buffoon that he is making himself out to be, I probably wouldn’t vote for him."

"We are a country of immigrants, so to say you should put a wall up or limit certain ethnicities is sort of antithetical to what this country is about," she continued.
