I hate that woman SO MUCH
she caused so much grief it is unbelievable!!
if Kwame ever had a chance of winning, it would have required Ponderosa on the other team!!!!!

He would have ended up with her anyway. The picks went:

BILL: Amy
KWAME: Troy
BILL: Katrina
KWAME: Omarosa
BILL: Nick
KWAME: Heidi

Even if Kwame had chosen Nick or Heidi on his second pick, Omarosa would have ended up on his team. It is surprising that he didn't leave her for the last pick, however.


That's true, but he still should've taken Nick -- having Omarosa on the team seemed to cancel Heidi out. And surely there would've been one part of the job that Kwame could've put Nick's used car salesman schtick to work.

I loved how Trump mentioned that Tammy was going to have a baby and she began to talk about it and he cut her off to speak to someone else -- the look that flashed across her face was priceless.

My friends and I were wondering how much do you think George and Carolyn earn annually? More or less than Bill's $250,000. Also, when will the nielsen ratings for this show be released?

Frankly I am not sure what Trump pays his executives.

Carolyn Kepcher is the chief operating officer and general manager of Trump National Golf Club.
She is still relatively young, 30's. So I wouldn't be surprised if she made atleast that if not more.

George Ross is the executive vice-president and senior counsel for The Trump Organization,
He represented Trump for years as his attorney during Trumps real estate deal in the
80's and 90's. So I would guess he probably makes more than 250,000.

But like I said, I really don't know what he pays executives. But as top trump executives I am sure
they are well off.
 
There's no way they don't make more than 250k. They don't get stock options, so they have to be paid very well.

Alot more. Both have been with Trump for more than 10 years. Both are at high level executive positions. Id be suprised if either were compensated with less than $750,000 a year.

That was priceless! She was a beehatch too but about 1/100 of an Omarossa.

Yeah, they were both off in their own little worlds, but Tammy was just a space cadet with tourette's.
 
I realize throughout the show that Donald Trump is particularly mean to George compared to Carolyn... Trump would always scream at George and cut his off when he speaks, but never at Carolyn... I guess Trump really has a soft spot for women afterall...

Yeah, I loved that part too. She was saying something about her husband and Trump just cut her off.

OWN@GE 😀
 
I also liked Trump's line about how he'd had a few "good friends" too -- and how expensive they were.

I have to imagine that Amy shut Nick down, he seemed like he wanted to crawl under a rock when Trump referenced the romance angle.
 
according to katrina, nick and some other dude tapped Amy.

Atleast nick can say that he did 😉 I wonder if the other dude was Bill...probably.

My gf got a copy of US Weekly that suggested that Amy and Bill were more of an item than Amy and Nick (or at least went further, eheh).
 
I actually knew Bill was gonna win but he really is a a$$shole who can never admitt when he is wrong. He was obviosly frazzled during the Golf outing yet he says he has to disagree with Carolyn and The Don. And judging between the 2 tasks the Jessica concert was the much harder task imho. O well I bet Kwami will get a job making more than Bill in less than a month.

i dont think he said what he did because he "cant admit when he is wrong." I think he did that because he has to show confidence in the boardroom. Both of them knew that neither really had a huge advantage over the other, but both also should have known that in the boardroom, it's just like an interview-- you have to project yourself as the best, no matter what comes your way. So for Bill to say he wasn't frazzled at the golf tourney-- that he just operates at a high tempo-- was smart.

Kwame may very well make more than Bill in a short period. 250k is not THAT much when you consider the kind of stakes these people are at. I'll bet Bill thinks of the position as more advantageous to his career than his checkbook. The experience is invaluable, but the compensation is, well, so-so.

"He would have ended up with her anyway" is a BAD reason for NOT picking her last. I would have picked someone else SOLELY on the chance that Bill went psycho all of a sudden and picked her. I'm sure Bill would have waited until the end on the off chance that kwame would pick her, and look what happened there...

Indeed. Worst case scenario and you're stuck with Omarosa anyway but have Nick (who would probably actually be able to work with her, or at least stay out of her way), best case, you get Nick and Heidi.
 
Didn't Kwame and Omarosa have some kind of friendship while she was still on the show? I remember her sobbing and hugging him after she got fired? Perhaps that's why he chose her.
 
this is from cnn. its not a joke.

But being the runner-up isn't all bad news to Jackson. The 29-year-old New Yorker was offered a one-week stint as Chief Sales Officer at fast-food chain KFC. The company was not immediately available to say if Jackson would take the job.

If Jackson accepts, the company said he will be involved in the launch of the company's Oven Roasted chicken product line.

Jackson would actually be paid more than Rancic, at least for one week. KFC, a unit of Yum Brands Inc. (YUM: Research, Estimates), said it would give him $25,000 for the one-week job, along with a year's supply of KFC products.

He wasn't wrong to be hyper active, stressed, and micro-managing. To me, it's a managers to be like that. If not, it doesn't project a calm, collected person, but someone who is a slacker...like quamy. Bill did his thing, he turned a disaster into gold...when the Marquee jet card was thrown out(probably by Amy the mole). He went to the dumpster and searched/found it himself. When you're a manager, you have to be able to assess when certain situations are emergencies and be able to react your self by rolling up the sleeves. No, you don't do everything yourself, no one can, but when sh1t hits the fan, you'd better be there overseeing, and something taking care of things yourself. If quamy was put in that situation...which he was with Jessica missing, all he did was stand there and get yelled at by trump. He took no action...slacker!

That right there was the best thing he did imo. There's definitely a time to take matters into your own hands when your people aren't taking care of things, he got down and dirty on that one. Amy did it intentionally I'm sure but I still love her so.
