Nathan J The old man in the show is obviously wearing a diaper. Why would we care who he hires and fires. Not to mention his multiple bancruptcies. It's impossible to watch this train wreck. The Donald, this show only got worse over time. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 03/13/25 Full Review Read all reviews
