I'm curious if anyone watches and if y'all do -- what did you think of who was fired last night? :thinking:
















I'm very bored at work! :hairpunk:

I watch... and I'm getting real tired of the excuses Trump and his execs (especially the old man who's name I can't remember) use to fire people. A lot of the time I think their decisions are based on petty things. It's starting to become clear (to me) that Trump and all his execs "ain't all that". Last night, if she hadn't said "I choked", would she have not been fired? That was just silly. I think they should have kept the woman they fired because she, at least, stepped up to the plate. She probably shouldn't have been allowed by the project manager to take on so much responsibility (compared to the other team members). I think some of the logistics were planned badly. Someone else should have been given the task of getting the models organized so she could have been allowed to collect her thoughts. Afterall, the presentation was the most important part of the task.

Afterall, the presentation was the most important part of the task. I did not like the comment Trump made about George's replacement this week. "Don't be fooled by her looks, she's ruthless" :rolleyes: and the idiot just stood there & took it! :mad: AND she's a lawyer!!! :crazy: Anyway, I don't think Angie should've been fired either. I'd have fired Alex, the PM. I saw a deleted scene when they met w/ the exec. from American Eagle and Angie "choked" in that meeting. SO as a PM I would of said, "hmmm...maybe this isn't her strongest area, maybe I should take over so we can win!" He gave her just enough room to hang herself! Chris is a mess!! I can't believe he was still yelling in the boardroom last night. :hand:

I am really impressed with Tana & Bren. I think Kendra is next up as PM for Magna corp next week & I bet she gets fired! :clap:

Since she is exempt next week she is guaranteed a spot in the final four. Who do you think will be fired next week? I'm thinking that Alex & Craig's days are numbered!! Craig will probably be PM for Magna next week...wonder how he'll do?? Can't wait to see what The Donald has in store for next week with Magna up one extra person! :nerd:

Very glad they got rid of chris they should have kicked him to the curb last week. Tanna was so selfish when she said she didnt care cause she was exempt. And then her and Craig had the audacity to go to bed.:mad:

I can't remember who it was that was fired when he was supposed to be exempt...Season 2 maybe. :thinking: Anyway - she is still the strongest candidate IMHO with Bren a close 2nd. ;)

On a side note, last night when Tana & Craig were talking about going to bed, I think that as project manager Kendra should have insisted that they stay and help her. Last week when Tana was the PM and someone was fighting about something she stepped in and said, "look quit being babies and get it done!" Luckly, them going to bed didn't hurt the team, but imagine that board room had they lost! :eek:

So, what did everyone think? I just don't like Craig. :( I think right now, Tana is the strongest candidate. Wonder what will happen next week? Will Alex get to choose one of the other candidates to be on NetWorth or will he have to go at it alone? :thinking: If he gets to choose one of the Magna crew...his choice will be interesting enough. God help Kendra if he chooses Tana!!! :D :D

theres something about craig that i like p4s.he is definately not a people person, but i dont think trump has seen that side of him. its hard to tell the way these tv people play these things out. they might go with a female just since the other apprentices have been male. but something tells me craig is the guy. i think they are all not up to the standards of previous episode candidates.

This is the 2nd female to complain about him talking down to them. :mad: That is what rubs me the wrong way, of course, I haven't seen him talk to Tana that way. :D She'd probably slap him silly & be done with it! :p

I think Craig is the worst one of the four left. He's terrible. He has almost no creative input and when he does, he explains it to everyone like they're idiots.:rolleyes:

I thought once you got to the final four, that it was interview time and it was every man and woman for themselves. Is that right?

I can't remember, you may be right, but that clip I saw was of tonight's episode and they were at Hanes. I don't like Craig and I don't like how he treats Kendra and I don't think he'll win, but he may sneak his way into the final 2! :eek:


What I would really like to see is Kendra & Tana go head-to-head in the final 2. :clap: :D

once again Kendra has surprised me! :) She should do very well in the interviews. This may be the weak spot for Craig b/c he just can't seem to keep from talking/looking down on people. :rolleyes:

This episode was boring though! I can't believe Tana & her "bedazzler" -- Carolyn did not think very highly of her!!! :D :D

Not remembering how many times he lost! :eek: :D Funny, but sad. :doh: Plus, I think Alex was just tired & the Donald was tired of seeing him in the boardroom! I don't like how no one (so far) has defended themselves when he calls them a loser! :mad: I think Carolyn & George like Tana, but wants her to be more tough. :D So far, I haven't heard either one of them say anything negative about Kendra. :thinking:

Glad to see that Craig is gone. I think she had 2 park the car cause they are both idiots and between the 2 they might actually have 1 human brain. lol I dont know but i think Kendra is growing on me. I think I would like her to win. Though I could have done without that stupid little exit on the show where she said she was so good. That was so arrogant.

As much as I want Tana to win, I think she is TOAST!!! :( I was more impressed with Kendra and rather disappointed in Tana's behavior. Guess she isn't so sweet after all? :thinking: She wasn't given the best people to work for her, but you'd think she'd work harder to motivate them instead of antagonizing them & then saying really awful things about them on camera!! :eek: What an idiot! :doh: Jeez, I don't know what it would take for The Donald to hire her over Kendra. :thinking:

Who else thinks Tana screwed up?

How can she say such things while people are constantly are telling her this needs to be done and this is wrong. MAN GET A GRIP!! I think Kendra really stepped up to the plate. Great Job! How cool was it that after her project she pretty much offered a job. That shows great of a job she did.

I didn't see much of this episode. I saw the last 20 minutes. In the Board room, Tana's answers to the questions were just fluf. There was no supstance to anything she said and no facts or data to back it. Kendra wins this one.

Granted her task was MUCH harder than Kendra's but it seemed like every time she opened her mouth, she was putting her team down. Her team was much harder to manage. It's harder to manage stong-willed people than to manage scatter brains. To me, Kristin was the downfall of Tana's team.

I never thought I'd say this...but..."Go Kendra"!
