Ramin Setoudeh’s unused chronicle of Donald Trump and “The Apprentice” — titled “Apprentice in Wonderland” — has arrived in bookstores and is full of juicy stories from behind the scenes of the former president’s long-running reality show. Has happened. (Note: Setoodeh is the co-editor-in-chief of this newspaper).
With a gripping narrative that reflects how the NBC series unfolds at the height of Trump’s political career, as well as multiple unused interviews between Trump and Setoudeh, there are several key points that provide additional context into the wild world of the truth juggernaut. Let’s add. Check out 5 of them below.
Trump’s head-turning announcement for Ben Silverman
Ben Silverman, then co-chairman of NBC Entertainment, recalls a particularly spirited conversation with Trump in 2007.
“He thought for a minute,” Silverman recalls Trump saying. “And he says, ‘I’m so glad there’s a Jew running the network again.’ And I said, ‘Wow, I can take it two ways, but either way, coming from you, it’s a compliment.’
Omarosa reportedly sought relief from Piers Morgan for “showing off”,
“He’s one of the most terrifying human beings I’ve ever met in my entire life,” Morgan says, claiming that Omarosa tried to work with him — on a “showmance” for the audience. To make room – and then continued to make false claims. When she was gay he harassed her and made her stop making advances. “She’ll literally do anything if she thinks it’ll keep her on the show and get ratings,” Morgan says.
Trump recreated child-like life to film scenes for ‘The Apprentice’
As the year went on, he continued to worry about participating in the program “The Apprentice”. If he arrived and the cameras were not in position to capture his view, he would walk into the storm and back out over the next few hours, just to get some exposure. To help track his whereabouts in the actual year, members of the show’s transportation crew were asked to track Trump when he was taking his personal car.
It’s more straightforward said than done. As one driving force explains, it used to be an occupational hazard to enforce Trump while running on his golf path at Briarcliff Manor. Trump will run red lights, gas up and leave other cars in the mud.
Trump is “obsessed” with Debra Messing
Trump described meeting Messing for the first time on NBC, saying she admired him.
“She came up to me with her beautiful red hair,” Trump said of Messing, pausing at length on the issue. “And she said, ‘Sir – I love you. Thank God for you! You’re saving the network, and you’re saving my show.’ Because in that world, which I know a lot about now, when you have a hit, a lead-in, it makes a big difference that “Will & Grace” is “the. “The Apprentice,” which may have been cruel had it not gotten the ratings bump from viewers that became “The Apprentice.” “A lead-in — or a lead out,” he explains.
“She was very grateful,” Trump says. “She said, ‘I can’t thank you enough.’ Do you believe it? I’m looking at her. And I’m like, ‘She’ll do anything for me.'” Trump’s words become suggestive, Which is similar to his boast about being impossible for girls to resist in the Hollywood” tape.

The year we communicate, Trump once again mentions Messing and he confirms soSomething he might have best hinted at in our closing meeting. During the early years of “The Apprentice,” Trump also had an influence on the leading lady of “Will & Grace.” Perhaps that is why he is not able to remove the bitterness that now exists between them to some extent. A former president who can’t win over a celebrity almost seems like the premise of a clichéd romantic comedy, but for Trump, Messing’s rejection is still a deft dagger in his heart. “This Debra Messing, who I always thought was quite attractive – of course, not that it matters…”
Trump knew about the affair between his son Donald Jr. and Aubrey O’Week — but he hasn’t heard her pop track about it.
The Danity Kane singer famously had an affair with Don Jr. while she was on the fifth season of “The Celebrity Apprentice,” which Trump admitted he knew about.
Once I asked Trump about O’Week’s relationship with Don Jr., he relaxed for a long moment. “Actually, I’ve heard that,” he says, blinking. “No, I’ve heard that.” Did he know O’Week wrote a track about Don Jr.? “I had not heard the song. But I heard it,” Trump says, confirming once again that he knows about the story of Don Jr. sleeping with some contestants on “The Celebrity Apprentice.”
