Donald Trump has been terminated from NBC as a result of his late remarks about Mexicans, however hey, business will be business, so there’s a catch.
Donald Trump’s statements are as follows:
“We must have strong borders and not let illegal immigrants enter the United States. As has been stated continuously in the press, people are pouring across our borders unabated. Public reports routinely state great amounts of crime are being committed by illegal immigrants. This must be stopped and it must be stopped now. Long ago I told NBC that I would not being doing The Apprentice because I am running for President in order to Make our Country Great Again.
“If NBC is so weak and so foolish to not understand the serious illegal immigration problem in the United States, coupled with the horrendous and unfair trade deals we are making with Mexico, then their contract violating closure of Miss Universe/Miss USA will be determined in court. Furthermore, they will stand behind lying Brian Williams, but won’t stand behind people that tell it like it is, as unpleasant as that may be.”
NBC simply said, “Because of the late disparaging proclamations by Donald Trump in regards to immigrant workers, NBC Universal is closing its business association with Mr. Trump.”
The system says ‘Miss USA’ and ‘Miss Universe’ will no more air on NBC.
With respect to “The Apprentice,” the system notes Trump has effectively said he won’t take an interest in light of his presidential run.
Be that as it may, … the system says, “Celebrity Apprentice” is a Mark Burnett creation and “that relationship will proceed with.” And think about who has that show? NBC did not say it would request an alternate host.
As we said, business will be business.
