Has Trump Finally Lost His Marbles?

[transam]

Without actually apologising.

Pretty much yes

 

[transam]

I dunno, they often say sensible things after they retire having failed to speak out when they were in the job

Not Speaking out whilst in job publically for

Obvious reasons

 

[transam]

Yes. McCain was given the opportunity to be released, but refused because he thought it would give the Viet Cong some good publicity.

Trump said he didn't think anyone who got captured could be a war hero.

Yes that was the remark

Bang out of order imho

There is video footage of McCann getting off the plane back to the US after his release
He looked a broken man from his treatment

Afaik he suffered phisically for the rest of his life ???

You keep spouting this nonsense about Trump not being famous prior to the apprentice. Just have a look at the coverage he gained on tv and movies before then.
Just a random guy, eh?
Ai summary for you.

I asked:

'did the apprentice increase trump's fame'

AI Overview

Yes,
The Apprentice significantly increased Donald Trump's fame, transforming him from a New York City tabloid figure with a struggling business portfolio into a nationally recognized, household name. The show, which premiered in 2004, curated an image of Trump as a titan of industry and a business genius, which directly boosted his celebrity status and public profile.

Key Impacts on Fame and Image:

• Rebranding: The show refurbished his image from that of a "sleazy... tabloid hustler" following high-profile corporate failures in the 1990s to a respected, all-knowing CEO.
• "You're Fired": The catchphrase became iconic, reinforcing a persona of authority and decisive leadership in a manufactured "boardroom" setting.
• Mythmaking: The show was carefully produced to create a "larger than life" persona, using set designs to make his business operations appear more successful than they were.
• Monetization: The popularity of the show allowed him to leverage his heightened fame for millions of dollars in licensing and endorsement deals, ranging from mattresses to steaks.

Financial and Political Legacy:

• "Lifeline" Financing: According to a New York Times investigation, The Apprentice provided a "$427 million lifeline" to Trump at a time when his other businesses were reporting major financial losses.
• Path to the Presidency: The image cultivated on The Apprentice was central to his 2016 campaign, allowing him to present himself as a successful businessman who could run the country like a CEO. Many, including producers of the show, have argued that he would not have become president without it.

The Apprentice ran from 2004 to 2015, during which time it was a massive ratings success, particularly in its early seasons.

Pretty much yes

I’m sure the British public and the British Armed Forces will be greatly reassured from his non apology.

There’s something wrong when the chancellor is more powerful than the head of the armed forces
