Now a former companion is clearing up the public image of Trump. The former head of marketing for the US television station NBC, John D. Miller, apologized in a personal post for having "made Donald Trump great". At the same time, he warned against another presidency - and campaigned for Kamala Harris. "I want to apologize to America. I helped create a monster," Miller writes in an essay for the website "US News & World Report". In his remarks, the TV manager refers to the television show "The Apprentice," which aired on NBC between 2004 and 2017. Trump hosted the show until 2015, in which candidates competed for a highly paid one-year contract with the Trump company for 13 weeks - two teams competed against each other every week. One candidate was fired by Trump, and the phrase "You're fired" became a catchphrase in the USA. The show was watched by more than 20 million people at times. "Significant exaggeration" "To sell the show, we created the narrative that Trump was a super-successful businessman who lived like a king. That was the basic idea of ​​the show," writes Miller. "At the very least, it was a significant exaggeration; at worst, it created a misrepresentation by making him seem more successful than he was." In fact, Trump and his companies had to file for bankruptcy four times before production and at least twice during his time as host, Miller said. "The imposing boardroom in which he famously fired candidates was a backdrop, because his real boardroom was too old and shabby for television." Trump was the perfect choice for the show in that more successful CEOs are too busy for a reality TV show - and also don't want to "add random game show winners to their leadership team," Miller writes. "Trump had no such concerns. He had plenty of time to film, he loved the attention," Miller said. "It's not very businesslike - and certainly not presidential" During that time, he learned that Trump is very manipulative. "No compliment is too much for him. Flatter him and he'll obey." Russian President Vladimir Putin and North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un have also noticed this, says Miller. The former manager goes on to write: Trump "acts aggressively against those who criticize him and takes revenge. That is not very businesslike - and certainly not presidential." In addition, Trump's judgment is "questionable." Trump once suggested to him that a team of white players should compete against a team of black players. Miller said he explained to Trump that sponsors did not want to be associated with a show in which races were pitted against each other. "But he couldn't understand why that was such a bad idea," he writes. "The image of Trump that we propagated was greatly exaggerated," the ex-manager continues. He never thought that it would help Trump "catapult into the White House." "This is an illusion" At the end, Miller appeals to the US citizens: "Now America is facing a critical decision. Should this elderly would-be emperor without clothes, who is known for stretching and disregarding the truth, become president again?" asks Miller. "If you believe that Trump will be better for you or better for the country, that is an illusion. Even if you are a true Republican like me, I urge you to vote for Kamala Harris." The country will be better off, "and so will you," Miller concludes his post.
