‘I helped create a monster’: Ex-‘Apprentice’ executive issues apology about Trump
John Miller, former chief marketing officer for NBC and NBCUniversal, tells CNN’s Laura Coates about his experience working with former President Donald Trump as a reality television star. #CNN #News
Oh please do not place the blame on anyone except the ignorant, Diaper Donald who just filled his ego and bank account with a TV production and game show he and his half wit followers believed was real! Donald Trump had nothing else going on in his life! He believed his role on TV, much like if Marcus Welby MD actor, Robert Young decided he could perform surgery after the show didn't air on TV and the viewing audience only wanted Marcus Welby to remove a Kidney! OMGosh what a very sad state of dangerous foolishness Trump and MAGA exist in! 🤑🤮🤡😵💫
Studio greed made them sidestep the writer’s strike and move to reality TV. Greed leads to more greed. Since then, $50 trillion has passed from the bottom 90% to the top 1%.
THIS JUST GOES TO SHOW HOW GULLIBLE AND NEEDY PEOPLE ARE FOR SOMEONE TO SAVE THEM, THEY can NOT see the truth OF WHAT HAS BEEN EVIDENT FROM THE BEGINNING. TRUMP IS A BIGOT, RACIST, UNSUCCESSFUL ENTREPRENEUR, DIM WITTED SICK OLD MAN THAT IS LIVING A LIE, THANKS TO ALL OF YOU WHO GRANDIOSE HIS IMAGE FROM A PWEENY MAN TO THIS EGO DRIVEN DIRTY BAG. THANK YOU.
Since you made the rounds to the networks you know it's not an exclusive if you just like to be part of the DNC machine who really gives a s*** what I have to say
To think if Trump didnt have this show, he wouldnt have become an irritant on the global media , he wouldnt even exist now…….yes sir you did create a monster
I love how he’s coming out with less than 20 days of the election to say this. Why wait until now? I’m not saying it’s not all true, I think it is, but seriously waiting until now? Sad.
Never watched the show. Fat Hitler was an annoying narcissistic liar and pos back then just as he is now. Anyone who liked him or still does is a phoney materialistic moron! Wake up fools!
This is a CLASSIC CASE of someone believing their own publicity. In fact, I've never seen a more ACCURATE example. Donald Trump ACTUALLY BELIEVED he WAS that character that NBC created for him. Unfortunately for them, just like King Kong, he broke out of his cell and has been wreaking havoc on both the City of New York and later the world FOR YEARS, and the authorities have not been able to corner him and "put him back in his cage". WHO will step up and be our Fay Wray???? Answer: the voters of the United States of America
Trump became a monster because of his popularity among his base. He is nothing without those who adore him unconditionally. The rest of us know that the king is naked.
All "reality" TV is fake news. Those shows are scripted and heavily edited to create a fabricated "reality". If you believe they are real people doing real things, you are a fool. They are just a cheat way for producers to keep more show money for themselves because they don't have to pay legitimate writers and legitimate actors. Most of those people on "reality" shows are bottom-tier actors in Hollywood who aren't good enough to get legit acting work, not ordinary people off the streets.
Too little too late. Are you supposed to smile and make excuses when apologizing? The pundit watched it too. She contributed. She did not do her work to check herself. She liked gossip tv. She also has a smile plastered.
Anyone else remember that other show that Trump hosted, called How Much is it Worth? It wasn't a whole series, just a one off special. I think it was on CNBC or possibly Fox Business News, in the early to mid 2000's. It was a documentary type show where they did a bunch of segments on how much it cost to build different things and how much weird things that people normally wouldn't think of being sold, cost. There was a segment at the end called How Much are You Worth, where he talked about how much human organs, blood, and other body parts would be worth, if you could sell them, or if you did sell them, in cases where it's legal to do so. I think he ended the show by saying how much every usable thing in the human body, all together, would hypothetically be worth if you could sell it. I'm surprised this show hasn't resurfaced on YouTube in all this time. I wonder if the Marion Stokes archive has it. She was a woman who recorded onto VHS tapes, for like 30+ years, every cable news network 24/7. When she died a few years ago, her family digitized the tapes and made them into an online archive for people to use for research purposes. But they still haven't digitized all of them yet, so who knows if they have it yet.
I can't believe how one person can change this used-to-be a great country so much by just spewing BS. since his election in 2016 this country has not been the same. I dream of the USA before his presidency.
CNN and MSNBC have done this everyday for years with Biden and Kamala. You portray them as a success but Biden couldnt even finish 1 term and Kamala is struggling in the polls. Whats the big deal ?
Though he gets brownie points for being honest, however late it is, this man is scum. He’s rich enough to not have to lay in the bed he’s made. Idiotic cheeto supporters believe everything they see on TV and don’t think critically. Of course reality TV is fake and has an agenda: to make money. And no actually successful businessperson would have signed up to do this crap, because it would’ve taken them away from their businesses.
Why didn't this guy and nbc say something in two thousand 16, when he first started running, I understand the guy really couldn't say anything, but NBC could have said something. I guess they just didn't give a d*** about the American people enough. Just say anythingI'm glad I don't watch their channel that much

It is never too late to do the right thing.

I never watched The Apprentice, but I read Apprentice in Wonderful. He was a/h then and before.

Is this being promoted as the “Oct. Surprise”?

What kind of Dr.Nut Job of this crap. Even Dr. Frankenstein himself blamed nothing on his creation.
