Trump completely tore into Zucker when he released this lengthy statement, according to the Independent. Trump said, “Jeff Zucker, a world-class sleazebag who has headed ratings and real-news-challenged CNN for far too long, has been terminated for numerous reasons, but predominantly because CNN has lost its way with viewers and everybody else.”
He didn’t stop there. Per the New York Post, the rest of the statement read, “Now is a chance to put Fake News in the backseat because there may not be anything more important than straightening out the horrendous LameStream Media in our Country, and in the case of CNN, throughout the World. Jeff Zucker is gone — congratulations to all!”
While Zucker often had negative things to say about Trump during his presidency, it seems the former president has forgotten that without Zucker, “The Apprentice” may have never aired on television. Their former friendship is clearly not rekindling any time soon.
