LOS ANGELES, Sept 24: TV personality Sharon Osbourne is convinced Donald Trump will make a terrible US President even though she’s a big fan of him.
Osbourne, 62, teamed up with the property tycoon when he fronted hit US reality TV competition show “Celebrity Apprentice”, and she admits she found Trump to be an “absolute gentleman”.
Appearing on US late night show “Conan”, she explained, “Working with him… He was very respectful, very nice, but… When you watch him on the (political) debates, it just reminds me of a three-hour episode of The Apprentice. (He’s) acting the same way (as he does on the show) – the wisecracks, the one-liners… It’s like, ‘You’re not meant to act that way. It’s serious. Come on!’
“He’s rolling the dice (by becoming a candidate). If by some chance he does make it (to the White House), fantastic, if he doesn’t he’s built his empire even bigger… He can’t lose really.”
Trump has captured the imaginations and support of many Americans and he is currently leading the race to be named the Republican Party’s candidate for President when the nation goes to the polls next year. (PTI)
