Longoria asked her friend Ana Navarro to assist explain the problem on the podcast call. “Could you please tell them that Trump wasn’t the reason I left the United States?” she said.
She was upset that her remarks had been misrepresented in “clickbait” headlines by some media sites.
“I’ve been working in Europe for almost three years,” she said, adding, “and it makes me very sad that people just grabbed some clickbait stuff to be divisive..

She was reminded by Navarro of a previous comment that living in Europe was like “shutting off the noise.”
“Yeah, I mean being away from the constant 24-hour news cycle puts you in a bit of a bubble, for sure,” Longoria said. I am in Europe for that reason.
The political climate did not drive me to leave. I left because I had to go there for employment.
