Kwame said on Greta that it was for $150K.

What nobody seems to be talking about is Sam's amazing stunt of GIVING Trump $250K for the chance to work for him. I think Trump liked the style, and kept the briefcase, which means, he probably will give Sam a job --- otherwise I am sure he would have turned Sam down on the spot.

It will be very interesting to see where each of the Apprentice contestants will be a year from now. I hope the show will do a special on it.

let me ask a question.

Isn't this a copyright infringement? Or should I start making GOP Ben&Jerry adverts?

I like Kuame and wish he would have fired the person that seriously made me entertain the idea of bringing back 'the rack'. Failing that, it made me question his leadership skills.

As for Sammy, yes it was a good move. I can't imagine anyone giving him a position of authority though.

Trump should take the money and set Sammy up managing a line of shoe-shine stations in Trump facilities.

"Kwame? If either of us had a copy of Gorelick's book "Destruction of Evidence"
we NEVER would have gotten fired.

'Apprentice' loser Kwame Jackson

Although I didn't watch this show, I have to say that anyone who comes in second out of a total of 215,000 applicants is hardly a loser. The only 'losers' are the morons who call this gentleman a loser.

You're dead on. The move on Sam's part was BRILLIANT!!! Put Trump on the spot on LIVE National TV!!! If you've read "Art of the Deal", you'll know that this was a very TRUMP thing to do. Even the Donald commented that "What he did isn't that stupid, you know."

About 3 years ago I saw Mark Cuba give an interview on Dateline, or one of those shows. They said that he still reads all the email that's sent to him. A few months after that I sent him a note about something I really wanted him to consider. He emailed me back in less than six hours. And yes, I believe it was him by what was said in the letter. He's a class act.

Prior to the job offer from Cuban, Fox News reported that Kwame had been offered the chance to return to his old firm, the NYC investment bank Goldman Sachs, at a substantial salary. However, Kwame turned the offer down and instead had planned to start a business with some friends of his focused on raising capital for black-run firms that focused on the upscale market.

This sounds right. He decided not to fire the only Black American on his team - after she deceitfully misinformed him and his team - twice.

A decision probably motivated by his concern about tarnishing his potential with black-run firms.

During the segments, I recall Kwame saying he not only wanted to work for Trump, but wanted to become Trump. A less than loyal exposure, I'd say.

It was said he told a friend, contrary to the stipulations in his contract with 'Apprentice', before the airing of the last segment, that a 'sister' was the problem.

Looks like anti-white bigotry to me.
