ARNOLD SCHWARZENNEGER
HAS BEEN GOING BACK AND FORTH
WITH DONALD TRUMP ABOUT THE
RATINGS OF "THE CELEBRITY
APPRENTICE" HAS SAID HE IS
BOWING OUT AS THE BOSS ON
APPRENTICE.
>> I DON'T KNOW IF HE IS TRYING
TO GET AHEAD BECAUSE EVEN IF
ASKED TO DO ANOTHER SEASON I
WOULD NOT DO IT.
THEY HAVE NOT ASKED HIM YET IS
WHAT I'M GETTING FROM THAT.
HE IS SAYING IT IS TRUMP.
THE QUOTE IS WITH TRUMP INVOLVED
PEOPLE HAVE A BAD TASTE AND
DON'T WANT TO PARTICIPATE AS A
SPECTATOR OR SPONSOR OR SUPPORT
THE SHOW.
SO HE IS SAYING EITHER EVERYBODY
THAT HATES HIM THEY DON'T WANT
TO WATCH IT AND THEY DON'T WANT
TO SUPPORT IT OR SPONSOR IT AND
HE IS GETTING THE BRUNT OF IT
REFERENCING THE LOW RATINGS.
DOESN'T WANT TO BE PART OF IT.
CHARLES: YOU ARE RIGHT, MAYBE HE
IS GETTING AHEAD OF IT.
I DON'T KNOW WHAT NBC WAS GOING
TO DO WITH ANOTHER SEASON OF
"THE CELEBRITY APPRENTICE" BUT
THE RATINGS WERE MUCH LOWER.
NOW, THE THING THAT PRESIDENT
TRUMP KEPT LEAVING --
OUT IS THEY WERE LOWER.
>> IT HAD BEEN RUNNING A
ADVANTAGE TOO MANY.
CHARLES: AND SLIDING.
>> SORT OF A BACKLASH THAT THE
TRUMP ADMINISTRATION IS HAVING
ON HIS BRAND AND HIS SHOW A LOT
OF PEOPLE WERE PULLING FROM
APPRENTICE SPONSORS AND WHATNOT
AND MAYBE THAT COST HIM MORE
VIEWERS, HIS INVOLVEMENT IN IT,
THAN ANYTHING ELSE.
CHARLES: SO WHO TAKES -- WHO IS
THE ULTIMATE WINNER AND LOSER?
>> I DON'T KNOW THAT THERE IS
ONE.
>> THIS IS JONATHAN FROM DALLAS.
I THINK THAT ARNOLD WINS EITHER
WAY.
HE DOESN'T REALLY NEED THE SHOW
BUT IT WAS KIND OF -- HE WAS
KIND OF A BORING HOST ANY WHICH.
I THINK IT IS -- ANYWAY.
IT IS TIME TO GET RID OF THE
SHOW.
MIGHT BE.
