NBC’s ‘Celebrity Apprentice’ Renewed for Season 15

It had painfully sagging ratings in season 14, but managed to get a renewal. Trump is out there to get his face out and bolster his TV show, and listen to himself talk. He does loves attention and the sound of his own voice. It's a win-win for him.

I worked at Dulles airport, and Trump came through once in a while. You could see his bright red hair bobbing along in the crowd, and somebody would always spot him right away and say, "Here comes Donald Trump." I don't remember anybody else standing out from the crowd in such a dramatic way. He didn't seem to be a butthead or anything, but it was obvious he craved attention, and he always seemed pleased that so many people recognized him.

Trump said he would build a "great, great wall" on the southern border and that he would make Mexico pay for it.

Mexicans "are not our friends," he said.

"They're sending people that have lots of problems and they're bringing their problems," he said. "They're bringing drugs, they're bringing crime, they're rapists, and some I assume are good people but I speak to border guards and they tell us what we are getting.

that it was all about publicity for him (sic)...
but, on a more serious note, he will attack all the front runners, which is a good thing for us, unless
people think he's totally nuts.

He polls well enough that he will make the "debates" on FAUX, knocking out sitting governors.

Well, that certainly is a great system...the GOP giving up control of debates to FAUX just shows how they are one and the same!

I don't think we're capable of helping with a good name. DU doesn't attract the kind of people who can come up with a name that sounds patriotic, but carries just the right hint of racism and bigotry, mixed with a healthy dose of xenophobic fear. I expect a name that will have a nice dog whistle undertone that says, "Keep the Mess-Kins from raping your daughters," at the same time it waves the flag. No clue, but I'm looking forward to it.
