Producer Says There's Footage of Trump Saying the N-Word
Source: Jezebel
Emmy Award-winning producer Chris Nee alleged Sunday on Twitter that Apprentice producers are sitting on footage that includes film of Donald Trump using the n-word.
Nee made the comments in response to a former producer on the show, who tweeted Saturday that Trump has been caught on camera saying far worse.
According to Nee, who says she heard from producers/crew on the show, one of those far worse things is Trump saying the n-word. She tweeted the allegations at Mark Cuban, citing a $5 million penalty fee for leaking footage apparently included in most of Apprentice executive producer Mark Burnetts contracts. This shouldnt come as news to Cubanhis show, Shark Tank, is also produced by Burnett.
BuzzFeed reports that Burnett, who is a Trump supporter, has been threatening employees with access to the shows unaired footage. Last week, more than twenty people involved in the show spoke anonymously with the AP about Trumps behavior during the production. He would often speculate about womens sexual activities and liked to discuss who he would and wouldnt have sex with, sometimes in front of the person he was talking about. Once, in the middle of filming, the sources allege to the AP, he stopped and singled out a contestant.

The country remains polarized. Turnout is everything for us.

votes among minority men.
It makes sense, when you think about it. If I read the quotes and
didn't know where they came from, I would have sworn they were from
P-Diddy or Dave Chappelle or someone like that.

(2,171 posts)I live in the south so yes my family did not know any better including me.I really don't ever remember saying it, but I am sure I did when I was a little kid, but when I entered school I figured out it was wrong.my family slowly started to change.

(153,138 posts)I don't understand how people "didn't know better"
Must not live in the south.my grandfather was a poor sharecropper and lived in a rural part of Tennessee.they were just no Black people around.no one was around to tell them it was wrong.they did not hate anyone they just did not know calling them the N-word was wrong.

(60,071 posts)I don't remember using the word, but my memory is not that good. Too much football without a helmet.
I did feel bad about using the word. I had a Black Nanny for a while because my mom flipped out over the death of my oldest sister. I did get to meet her years later. She was tall and skinny. Her hose were those thick brown old lady hose. I remember my dad getting mad at me for referring to her as a lady. That had an effect on me. I've had the habit of doing the opposite of what is ordered.
Later our Jr High class was assigned to write about current events. I wrote about the civil rights movement. I remember the teacher angrily drawing a big zero on my paper, then ripping it up in front of the class.
My Liberalism was born out of my stubbornness.

(4,642 posts)what the N word meant, can't remember where I picked it up at. She was from the south. She told me, without hesitation, that it meant someone who stole sheep. Being less the 8 at the time I believed her. Can't remember using the word but then I never knew anyone who stole sheep

Between now and November 8, expect to see this sort of bombshell at least once a day. Trump will blow a cork!!! Look for him to lose it and go absolutely apeshit in tonight's debate or in the last debate.

I worry Trump might, at some point during the debate, become so unhinged that he tries to attack HRC or one of the the moderators.
He'd probably be stopped (hopefully) before he could do any real damage but the Repuglicans might use this incident as a totally legit excuse to then remove Trump from the ticket and put someone more electable into his place.
Maybe Kellyanne will put a hit of acid in his water or some such, lol

(28,151 posts)First, is anyone who can fog a mirror surprised at this? Please, spare me the "shock".
Secondly, will this suddenly change the mind of a single voter? See first point.
Lastly, the Trumpets will mainline this shit. It's the mother's milk of their belief system. There will be zero regret from Trump.

(1,306 posts)are not voting for him IN SPITE OF all these allegations, rumors and
revelations.
They are voting for him BECAUSE OF these allegations, rumors and
revelations.
They all know, and have known since day one, that he is a racist.
Trump's politics are retrogressive. Anyone who is not a white male
he views as inferior. He represents America circa 1960, which is his
concept of the ideal American era when he refers to "making America
great again" -- hearkening back to an era of institutionalized racism,
apartheid classism, sexism, rape-culture, war-culture, nationalism,
and conservative fascism.
35% of the voting public still plan to vote for this villain ??!!
