I did not hear Donny Deutch’s comments, but if he said what you quoted, I think he was out of line. I think that Randal clearly deserved to win based on his performance over the entire 12 week period. I agree with you that this should not be devolved into a racist argument, which I think is ridiculous (Randal DID win after all, didn’t he?).

If there is anything that Trump does NOT strike me as, it’s being racist. Seems to me that all the man cares about is job performance. Period. He doesn’t care if you’re black, white, green, purple or gay.

As I’ve stated elsewhere, I give HUGE props to Randal for his accomplishments and he deserves the success he’s had in life through his hard work and dedication.

Randal certainly deserved to win based on past performance and the fact that he made it to the end without raising anyone’s ire. I applaud him for winning.

Best regards,

Vic

man get out of hear, still i dont see…You would hire her now over randell??? You said you would fire him, hire her now. Do you Know education, what i can do. How hard MIT is. In california, in the asian quarter. They have schools with kids with all 4.0, and the make perfect score on sat. And they all want to get into schools like Cal tech and Mass Tech.
http://www.collegeconfidential.com/ research MIT.if you dont believe me man. Hard to get into bro.,. ^’^;;..
Based off his remarks he said now you wouldn’t hire him, instead hire her.

Im the top poster, i just read your commits

This really isn’t about racism, sorry for anybody who tries to make it about racism. The fact is though a lot of people are making a joke out of Randal, when there is nothing to make a joke about. Had I said what I just said, and maybe been white would they have this much controversy over it. No, I don’t think so, and do blame trump for this. It definitely was an unfair position that he was in.

I still defend Randall, because he has proven himself as superior. But if trump wants her, he can have her, but to me she only seems like an average college student. Compared to an MIT/Harvard grad with 5 professional degrees, and his on multimillion dollar company. She has done great things in her life also, but her show record hasn’t been exactly great. I’m sure I can handle pressure just as well as her, if not better. And before you knock me you have to understand that I’m an advocate of high education also, both my parents went to college. I’m in high school, living in south Carolina. Have all-ready been accepted in schools such as Uni-south Carolina. And receiving mail, daily from colleges of caliber of duke, Villanova, Davison, Carnegie Mellon, brown, and Us California. But I want to go to Georgian Institute of Technology.

But as a show watcher, I would say Randall was the clear cut winner vs. her. No doubt. Had I been Randall, I doubt if I could even associate her. That would portray upper-middle class when I know I’m better than that’ll I’m being sarcastic on that one, but I don’t see what’s the big deal…Kwame and bill to me seemed much more closer than this one, but he wasn’t offered a second choice.

wtf, sarcastically, I don’t see what there is to debate still. I’m beginning to cry foul though, I never seen people so mad about the apprentice winner, lets just strip him of his accomplishments based sourly off of evil remarks. Lets slay the black-man. Hey now, I didn’t know I lived in such a moral conscious world.

Summary:
To those of you who say there was no clear cut winner, I cry foul. In all of apprentice history there hasn’t been a more clear cut/precise winner.

I am puzzled as to why trump would hire her for a high profile job. Dude university of Chicago, and some great accomplishments, but understand that I could read you the credentials for all of those guys, save a few and find better.

financial journalist vs. Multimillion dollar businessmen
MIT of tech vs. university of Chicago
Black vs. White
Male vs. hot female
Education/experiences vs. personality and youth

Now you tell me who would you choose if you had to choose one. Now if you could choose two people out of that show, you tell me you would Rebecca. I lost…I really am…

I now draw the conclusion, the two most hated endings have been with two black dudes. One with the black populace mad, the other with the white populace mad. In my mind I don’t think this is helping integration.

Hey did you guys her the remarks that Donny deutchs said during the post-winner finial. That Randall had an advantage because, he was black(it would draw more attention)??? Could that have been the case. My opinion in this case would be no. Sorry im still to impressed with his degrees, btw i can kinda guestimate what his degrees would have been in and to finish 5 degrees by the age of 32 or less, im still schocked by that. Im thinking undergrad(4years),MBA(2years),Master maybe(2years),(PHD) 2 years. Something along those lines but to finish 5 degrees in to years i tipp my hat off.

Do you think donny deutchs’ commits where racist. Media always trying to make something out of nothing. Maybe he should think before he speak. If i would have heard that i would have been offended just because i believe in fair play…Goodness, i might have quit if i thought i didn’t win fairly

Thanks so much for your comments, and although we have disagreed in the past, I appreciate having thoughtful comments posted here.

As to Rebecca, I have to agree that she totally missed the mark by listening only to the sponsor that made the most noise (Yahoo!). Considering their position on soliciting funds (the executives were totally obnoxious in that regard, also losing sight of the objective), Rebecca probably should have pressed them for some sort of large contribution to the cause as a counterpoint to their “no soliciting” position.

One thing that I would like to know, and I’m surprised did not come up during the finale, would be how much money (if any) was sent in by the attendees of the event via the envelopes provided.

In any case, even though she did miss the mark, her handling of the event and the way she stayed calm and cool despite Joe Piscopo dropping out at the eleventh hour and Trump throwing the schedule off really impressed me. I am truly stunned at the composure and poise she displays under pressure for a 23 year old, and I think she would make a fine high level executive at his organization. If not now, perhaps in a couple of years.

I, like Michelle Lei, have had to witness the most absolutely vile comments and posts regarding this particular season’s winner and have challenged them at every oppurtunity I have had. This, of course, does not apply to this site, which is amongst my favorites. I will stick to the facts from now on and leave the rheoteric behind when I log on.
With my apologies out of the way,…can you please tell me how Rebecca can even be considered fit for hire considering that her efforts, while aesthetically pleasing….PRODUCED $O RAISED???

It seemed to me that it was not an issue for him, so now I see all over the net people stepping up to make it an issue for him in his stead.

I agree that Trump shouldn’t have put him on the spot, but I think he had been planning on hiring them both for a quite a while, and given Randal’s “nice guy” history to date, Trump no doubt thought it would be a no-brainer that Randal would say “yes”.

I believe part of what could have been conceived as a weakness on his part was the fact that he didn’t come across as “tough” enough to work in NYC, so he could have been trying to show that he did indeed have a tough side.

I just think he chose the wrong situation in which to display that quality.

Vic

Anyway, his shutting the door on her getting hired said more to me about his character than all the other shows put together. He had won and Trump made that clear, so there was no harm for him in letting Trump hire Rebecca. Trump didn’t ask Randal if he felt Rebecca should be “The Apprentice” as well; he asked if he felt there was room in the Trump organization for Rebecca. Randal should have said yes, because it was the gracious thing to do — but ego got in the way and he didn’t want to share his good fortune with anyone else. It made me cringe.

It was a very sad moment indeed to peer into the man’s true character. All that veneer just peeled off and what we got to see was about as ugly as it gets.

I also think that Trump is going to hire Rebecca anyway.
