Trump definitely uses the show to further ALL of his interests, from real estate to his product lines to his golf course (Trump National). But that's good business sense, no? ***As for the would-be apprentices, i'm SHOCKED that Allie and Roxanne are still there, as all they've done for weeks is complain and connive together. Both are losers, and i would hate to have them in my office every day. Allie, especially....she's simply a whiner extraordinaire, and her personality is obnoxious. I will predict that Lee is going to be the winner, for several reasons. But I like Sean the best....he's just a cool guy, with good business acumen. Same for Lee, but I still like Sean best. The rumored romance between Sean and Tammy hasn't been mentioned lately, or alluded to on the show, other than the few hugs seen between the two, but if it's true that they are "falling in love", I think that's worth the whole season...I like both of them a ton, and seeing them together is wonderful....Tammy is soooo good-looking! She reminds me of Sandra Bullock, but Tammy is better looking to me! OK, I'll say it...she makes me melt! Wonder what she'll do now that she's fired, and her "boyfriend" Sean is still in it. I was hoping Trump would hire the two of them at the end. (I'm also very surprised that Michael is gone...he was a great guy, very smart, and probably didn't deserve to be fired. Also, he didn't make waves, and everybody liked him...so important. He'll be very successful ! ) jme
