   I don’t think Gary is faking the crazy…but his short-term memory is shot, so he has no idea that he was being crazy five minutes ago. that’s why he had no recollection of his behavior at the first meeting with the executives or when he saw them again and nearly begged for a job as their spokesperson (because aging, pasty, crazy white guys are perfect for selling tanning oil.)

   I don’t think he’s FAKING it, either. I just wish there was some way Trump could see everything that’s done and said on the challenge from start to finish so he could see himself, and be like, “Yes, you did say that, I saw the footage myself.” It feels like in the boardroom that he only knows what others told him and the basics of what went on. Maybe I’m wrong, I just always get that impression that he doesn’t see/hear every little thing himself.

   Gary’s not faking it. I think the correct medical term for his condition is f*ckin’ retard!

   I’m happy that tasty Meatloaf is still there. I wish the celebrities could get into Jerry Springer type fights on this show. That would be awesome. Watching NeNe pulling Latoya’s wig off would be the cherry on the top of my Sunday night.

   Y’all have to remember Gary had a serious brain injury about 20 years ago. Just MIGHT have something to do with his present state of mind.
   If you’re too young to remember…OY! No, Google or Wiki it.

   I keep telling y’all.. don’t sleep on Gary Busey. He’s gonna limp away with the winnings like a poor man’s Keyser Soze.

   Finals will involve Lil John or John Rich or Marlee Matlin or Star Jones. See? Marlee was so swift for asking Trump to let Gary stay on–he’s wearing everyone on his team out.

   I only catch this show once in a while and have yet to see a full episode, but every time I turn it on, Star’s stuffing her face. WTH?

   NeNe isn’t much younger than 50, so she’d better watch it. I’m sure she lies about her age. Remember, this is the woman who claims to be a size 8.

   Like Jill Zarin is a size 4?

    I didn’t mind the pirate theme. They just didn’t pull it off well. Pirates want treasure and they get the Australian gold. They should have gotten the koala suit and added pirate accoutrement and made the koala the head pirate. They would have won.

    LaToya and the snow thing was good. The rest of that mess looked so sad. I got tired hearing her hem and haw and watching her blink. I wonder if they used all of that sand. NeNe is a loud mooing cow crossed with a braying donkey but she was right about the feckless LaToya.

    I really do not like Donald Trump and his pot boiling ways. I wish his shellacked hair would stab through his skull.

    @ PinkLemonade, feckless is such a funny word, but an apt description of LaToya. I used “scatterbrained” on my FB last night. I was agreeing with Nene, until she went on the attack in the Hotel Room, saying that she was using the Jackson name to garner sympathy. I didn’t really get that at all; it’s not LaToya’s fault that Trump sees her as good for ratings. Nene saw someone she could browbeat and abuse with her loud mouth, which is true, but LaToya didn’t participate in it because she can barely form a sentence. I just find it funny Nene said that LaToya should act like an old lady, but when Dionne did exactly that three weeks ago, then she was pissed and ultimately said she was too old to participate. Bitch!

    NeNe confuses me. Sometimes she comes off as so very together and very funny, but then her switch flips and she crosses the line. Very mean to LaToya…funny, but mean. Star is going to get it from her soon, methinks.

    NeNe’s charity is for abused women as she says that she was abused in the past. What is really sad is that she is now being the abuser – LaToya may be rather useless but did not deserve the abuse heaped on her by NeNe. Hypocrite much?

    Nene is showing her true colors. I knew her niceness couldn’t last long.. she always zeroes on someone she thinks is weaker or is undeserving of praise. (Kim Zolciak’s hit song set Nene off enough to choke a bitch) She is jealous that LaToya won her task while Nene lost hers..and Nene doesn’t think LaToya is worthy of the high praise given by Trump. So she goes on the offense. LaToya handled it well..she didn’t stoop to Nene’s level with name-calling and insults.

    Nene: “Mr. Trump, it aint personal, it’s just bidness. LaToya is NOT a good leader. And her nose look worse than Michael’s! Look at her! She can stab me with her razor sharp chin bone or blind me with her glaring white skin, but Imma speak my mind. Casper! (*rolls eyes*) But like I said,..it’s not personal.”

    Your Nene is, scarily, dead on.

    Cannot wait to see an actual cat-fight from the ladies, be it Star/Nene or Nene/LaToya…may not be far off! Also priceless? Seeing the men’s reaction to Scary Busey walk back into the room post-elimination. Meat’s gonna blow an internal gasket.

    “I was agreeing with Nene, until she went on the attack in the Hotel Room, saying that she was using the Jackson name to garner sympathy.”

    Sorry I disagree. When Michael was alive, she made a career out of being his sister and now that he is dead she has made a career out of being his grieving sister. Nene was dead right when she said that the only reason LaToya was on the show was because of her last name.

    But calling her Casper was out of line if she meant it in a “You were black but have bleached your skin to be white” sort of way. I wasn’t sure if that is the way she meant it or if it was in reference to her personality (shy, indecisive, hovering in the background, running from conflict).

    I really hope Nene isn’t playing for her “charity”. It has already been reported that she has misappropriated funds for it. In other words – she stole the money for her broke a$$ self. She really is a cow, and I’m at NBC for putting her ugly mug on more than one of my channels. I can’t wait till she gets kicked off – then tries to contact Dionne & LaToya to be on her “entertainment segment” in Atlanta!!! I hope they both laugh in her face then tell us all about it!

    @iamrufus: Thanks. I’ve had the pleasure (misfortune?) of getting very acquainted with Ms. Nene over 3 seasons of RHOA. As long as she is the center of attention or doesn’t feel threatened by someone else’s success, she’s funny and a great addition to any cast/party. But if she feels bad about herself..
    (at this point, she and Hope are the only women not to have raised any funds…and LaToya has $75,000 from her baseball cap and PM wins.)
    I think LaToya handled herself the way you should around people like that.. don’t return the insults, stay calm, then say, “Are you done?”, as you’re back is halfway turned. Love it!

    Poor Star had to result to child psychology on Nene. Star tried to get Nene to stop going after LT but Nene ignored Star’s attempts. So Star distracted her by gesturing to the TV and saying, “Ooh, look! A bigger fight!” And Nene was, once again, quiet.
    Star, FTW!

    I wonder how NeNe and Shill Zaaarin get along. Actually Shill might be good for Celeb Apprentice. If she thinks she’s all that (which she does)she can just put up or shut up Beyotch!

    @2muchbravo: I do see Jill as capable at fundraising..she knows a lot of people, talks incessantly, and is uber-competitive. I’m not sure how smart she is but it would be great to see Jill get served by better competitors and then try to duke it out in the boardroom. I’d love to see her or Ramona on Celebrity Apprentice.

    Gary Busey, you keep the crazy limited to the tasks and are sane(r) in the boadroom. Maybe you bring the crazy because you know that’s why you were cast. Maybe Trump hired you as a mole on the men’s team, and to sabotage them in hopes of tripping up the power players, sending them home, so the strong players only survive on the women’s team, raising the chances of a woman take home the grand prize.

    What? Too farfetched?

    @Snootchy, I wondered that initially too, but I think (and definitely hope) Nene meant it in a “you didn’t do anything, you’re indecisive, etc” way. Who knows, though, there may have been more said that was edited.
