Fresh allegations are emerging about former President Donald Trump’s disrespectful behavior toward Black individuals amid his attempts to appeal to African American voters in his presidential campaigns. Bill Pruitt, a former producer on The Apprentice, alleged that Trump used a racist slur to refer to Black contestant Kwame Jackson. Trump asked a Black consultant if his partner was “his woman” due to their similar backgrounds.
Another former contestant, Gene Folkes, also said Trump used racially insensitive language when Folkes was eliminated from The Apprentice in 2010. NBC banned him from speaking about the incident in public.
