Well, the end came for Kwame last night. For those of you who watched the Donald Trump show, what did you think? I think the right man was chosen. I really questioned Kwame's judgement when he chose Omarosa. She is not trustworthy, he knew it and chose her anyway. Not a good call. If he hadn't made that choice, I think he would have had it. He is qualified, well spoken, so cool under pressure and good looking to boot. Maybe he will appear on the show again. He was very gracious when the winner was announced. I think Bill is the right man for the job, it's just his frazzled nerves that some didn't appreciate. He had his hands full but kept everything under control. That is very difficult under any circumstances. The look on his face when Donald was about to announce his choice was priceless. Do you think the right man was chosen? MaryW

I loved that show and I agree with your comments on Amorosa. She is such a self-centered, conniving little ..... I would have fired her on the spot whether I was in a position to do it or not. DTrump said it himself: If they deceive you once, they will do it again. I sure hope Donald made the right choice. Bill will have his hands full in Chicago. I hope he won't shoot himself in the foot; this is quite the undertaking and he is quite the nervous type. I think Kwame will be back as Donald didn't fire him. His words were: Bill, you're hired and not Kwame you're fired. Can't wait 'til next season. |

I've been watching this everyweek since the beginning and Thursday night we had something going on with our pool and with it getting dark later than usual now a days I MISSED the last episode. I could have cried. I thought Kwame had it all the way as he was the only one that didn't falter under pressure and stayed cool the whole time. I really thought Amy and Kwame were going to be the last two up there. I thought Bill was a little too nervous. But like I said I missed the last show, and as a matter of fact I missed the first half of the week before because of this daylight savings time. It puts me getting supper out the way too late for the 8 o'clock shows. They were in New Orleans recently taking applications for the next show. I can't wait to see when it starts up again. |

If Kwame had fired Amarosa, I think it would have been in his pocket. Susie, I have to agree with the judges: Aimee is shallow. She used that curly red head (for the life of me, I can't remember his name) but then again, he did exactly the same thing. They are power hungry and just like Sam, will do anything to get it. Now, who will win American Idol??? |

I think Bill was the right choice too. For a long time I thought Troy would make it to the top two. Can you believe Omarosa has been offered a contract to model for Clairol products??? What are they thinking?????

| She probably doesn't have to talk. We have to face it, she is quite a looker. |

| Dede I have the ladies mixed up. I thought Amy was the blonde. Yes they are power hungry but wouldn't you be if you were picked to head one of his companies. Let's face it. It takes that kind of person to be one top. Someone who doesn't have feelings for the little guy on bottom. Trump is a perfect example of the man on top. |

Someone who doesn't have feeling for the little guys down there will end up in a rot (sp??). I do think you have to earn the respect of your peers, big or little, and I think we have to give DT credit for what he has achieved. Correct me if I'm wrong but I don't think I've ever heard DT being rude or disrespectful to anybody in public and if he did in private, well what goes around comes around. It's a law of nature. He might have fired somebody not suited to a job according to his expectations and/or not competent but that a different story and in that situation, yes, I probably would have done the same thing. I would expect the people representing me and my company to be at par with the status that has been achieved and to even surpass it. Boy am I happy to be an administrative assistant

| DT himself said that he does not know any very successful men (and i assume women) that do not have big egos. and i have to agree, having an ego is not a negative if you use it right, you have believe in yourself and project that as well and sometimes people take that as a negative if it comes across as to strong. |

Well said Carman. Many times someone who knows exactly where they are headed and what they are doing comes off like a fathead egotist.
