Producer On ‘The Apprentice’ Claims Donald Trump Used N-Word When Faced With Prospect Of A Black Winner In Show’s First Season
30.05.2024 - 16:01 / deadline.com
A producer of The Apprentice claims that Donald Trump used the n-word on the set of The Apprentice and that the moment was captured on tape.
Bill Pruitt, who worked on the first seasons of the NBC reality show, writes in a story on Slate that Trump used the word while dismissing the idea that a Black contestant, Kwame Jackson, could be an early winner on the series.
There has long been intrigue over the outtakes from the show and the possibility that they contained Trump using the racist phrase. Tom Arnold claimed to have seen a tape, and even hosted a reality series of his own positing a hunt for the footage.
In the Slate piece, Pruitt writes that during a discussion with Trump over who should win — Jackson or Bill Rancic, who is white — Trump weighed the choice. According to Pruitt, when informed of some of Jackson’s attributes, Trump said, “Yeah, but, I mean, would America buy a n— winning?”
Pruitt writes that there was surprise among he and the other producers, but “none of us thinks to walk out the door and never return. I still wish I had.”
After shooting the scene where Rancic is favored and wrapping up production, Pruitt wrote, “There is no discussion about what Trump said in the boardroom, about how the damning evidence was caught on tape. Nothing happens.”
Trump’s campaign communications director, Steven Cheung, said in a statement, “This is a completely fabricated and bullshit story that was already peddled in 2016. Nobody took it seriously then, and they won’t now, because it’s fake news. Now that Crooked Joe Biden and the Democrats are losing the election, they are bringing up old fake stories from the past because they are desperate.”
Trump himself denied claims that he used the racial epithet. In 2018,
