I just hope that the obnoxious comments on this tape, along with the previous sexism, racism and all around bullying see Trump achieve what is clearly his worst nightmare - to become one of the biggest Presidential losers ever.
The Apprentice footage belongs to Mark Burnett right? Shouldn't he right now be shopping NBC an Apprentice Outtakes special? And yes, I realise that must mean some acknowledgement of how Trump behaved at the time. I'm reminded of a scandal in UK TV in 2011 when the two main presenters of Sky Sports were fired for making off-air remarks about a female referee. At first suspended, an anonymous Sky employee then leaked other off-air tapes of the pair, at which point they were fired. Their comments weren't anywhere near as offensive as Trump's. The pair now work for a Qatari TV station. It may be airing at 2am UK time tonight, but if it wasn't already, the upcoming debate is now unmissable.
