Cruz vs. Trump poll

Quote: rxwine

I'm sure Trump has advisors.

Do you actually follow anything on the
news? Trump has hired some of the best
military and economic advisors on the
planet to be on his team. You really need
to read more than the Daily Kos if you
want to keep up.

I've watched every season of the Apprentice and don't think I've ever missed an episode. The message Trump conveys over and over is to win at almost any cost. He seems to reward contestants that throw under contestants in front of the bus. However, most of the time when it comes to making a decision who to fire, he listens to the counsel of whoever his advisers are. Yes, sometimes he gets mad and fires people on the spur of the moment, but there is always a reason behind it.

What is my point? I guess it is that the Trump we've seen in the primaries is somewhat of an act. I think the real person is much more moderate. Not that I'm a fan of him as president. I am just saying that I won't lose sleep over him starting a nuclear war because he was in a bad mood. I am one of those who voted for Trump over Cruz, who I have nothing good to say about.

I've read articles over the years by people
who won the Apprentice. They all have
nothing but praise for how they were
treated by Trump when they went to
work for him. He was always encouraging
and actually went out of his way to mentor
them. If they called, Trump would make
time to talk. Look at Omorosa, from the
first season, she has nothing but good things
to say about trump.

I've always wondered what really happened with the winners.

You're so lucky killing time isn't a capital offense.

I watched a few episodes
It struck me as an hour long commercial with all the product placements and product advertising on the show itself.

Did anyone actually fess up to voting for Cruz in the poll?

Shows have to make money. Trump clearly made money for his partners.

What show doesn't have product placement.
It goes back to movies in the 40's. I saw a
Netflix show that had PP in every minute of it.
A bottle of Bud, or a bottle of Jack, or a box
of Kelloggs Corn Flakes on the table. The
cigs they smoked came in packs identical
to Marlboro, but they never showed the
brand. A Coke cooler on the porch, a
Harley and a Ford truck were shown and
discussed, Oscar Meyer salami was used
for sandwiches, with Kraft mayo. It never
ended. You act like Trump invented it or
something. Watch Seinfeld sometime for
PP, it was everywhere.

I forget which James Bond movie it was, but the production cost was 100% paid by placement fees. First time it ever happened. I do wonder if the average consumer realizes how blatant it can be.
