Three anonymous (aren’t they all?) former employees from The Apprentice allegedly told news media that Donald Trump referred to Marlee Matlin as retarded. They also said he treated her like she was slow. Is this true or not? Let’s see shall we?
From BizPac Review:
The latest example of this is the story that Trump reportedly called deaf actress Marlee Matlin “retarded” when she appeared on “The Apprentice.”
Never mind the allegation only became a story after three former Celebrity Apprentice staffers hiding behind the cloak of anonymity told a liberal news outlet about it in the heat of the election.
The three say Trump treated Matlin as if she were mentally disabled and while some of the insults were supposedly behind her back, they said he also made offensive remarks right in front of her.
More from Daily Mail:
Matlin told the New York Post last year that Trump had treated her with ‘respect and humor’ and was ‘always looking after her’ while she was on the show.
The actress, who has been a vocal supporter of her ‘friend’ Hillary Clinton, also told the paper she didn’t ‘follow his politics’.
When asked if she could see the Donald becoming the next Commander-in-chief, Matlin simply said: ‘Anyone can run for president!’
Both Trump and Matlin declined to comment on the Daily Beast story. The staffers remained anonymous due to extensive non-disclosure agreements.
My response to recent media reports – Marlee.
