In reply to the discussion: Donald Trump Flew In His 'Gold Guy' to Give the White House a Mar-a-Lago Makeover [View all]underpants
(195,873 posts)45. Yeah I forgot that part.
He was in dire straits until Burnett bailed him out.
Burnett was selling jeans out of the trunk of his car in Venice Beach when he read The Art of the Deal. He was inspired. He swore if he could ever do something for Trump he would.
Burnetts idea was to have a different lead every season but Spielberg and Bezos had other things to do than film 26 episodes. Trump was always going to be first and
he was available. He got per episode salary and worked it to be an Executive Producer. Nice favor Mark. They filmed in Trump Tower so he rented out the boardroom and the contestants lived in the building. He got the rent expense the production company was going to have to pay anyway.

He's turned the White House into a cheap-looking set for a horror film. I hope the genius who slapped that

Soon Trump will sign an Executive Order officially changing the name of the Oval Office to the "Gilded Office."

It looks like a tacky whorehouse. He and his wife should feel right at home now.
