He’s Fired! - Trump’s racist rant on Latino Immigrants too much for NBC
“Due to the recent derogatory statements by Donald Trump regarding immigrants, NBCUniversal is ending its business relationship with Mr. Trump,” NBC said in a statement, adding, “At NBC, respect and dignity for all people are cornerstones of our values.”
This means the network won’t air the Miss USA and Miss Universe pageants, which Trump co-owns, and Trump will no longer host the “The Apprentice.” “The Celebrity Apprentice” is expected to continue — but without the real estate mogul as host.
The comment that was too much for NBC?
“The U.S. has become a dumping ground for everybody else’s problems. When Mexico sends its people, they’re not sending their best,” Trump said. “They’re sending people that have lots of problems. They’re bringing drugs. They’re bringing crime. They’re rapists.”
