The former marketing director of the NBC channel regrets promoting Donald Trump as a successful businessman in the Diili program

American Former Director of Marketing for NBC Television John D. Miller has written for the US News website columnin which he states that he regrets his work The Apprentice – series.

The main character of the series was Donald Trumpfor whom the series brought large amounts of publicity across the United States and undoubtedly helped his success in the 2016 presidential election. The original American version of the series and the version produced in Finland have both been presented in Finland under the same name Deal.

“I want to apologize to America. I drove to create a monster,” Miller begins his column.

Miller tells how the marketing team he led created the narrative that Trump would be a successful businessman. This was an exaggeration to say the least, Miller points out, because in fact Trump had already filed for four bankruptcies before the series and at least two more during the time he was involved In the deal.

Kind of Trump was the perfect choice Deal as the main character, because more successful businessmen didn’t have the time to do reality TV, let alone the desire to appoint random competition show winners to the leadership positions of their companies, Miller continues. Trump, on the other hand, had plenty of time for television.

Miller announces his support for the Democratic Party’s candidate in the US presidential elections this fall Terrible Harris and urges others to make the same choice. Also hard-nosed Republicans, like he says he used to be.

In support of his call, Miller lists Trump’s character traits that he observed during the filming of the TV series, which he does not consider suitable for the president: he has a manipulative nature and at the same time he himself is rarely easily manipulated by flattery, which you can never get enough of. He is also sensitive and vengeful. Trump tends to repeat lies tirelessly in the hope that the other party will eventually believe them to be true, Miller writes.

“Although we succeeded Deal marketing, we also did irreversible damage by creating a false image of Trump as a successful leader. I deeply regret it. I also regret not talking about this sooner,” Miller writes.
