I know reading that statement you may have now lost respect for me, but read me out.</p>
<p>Last week, on Celebrity Apprentice, Trump had to decide between two women based on their performance in the week&#8217;s tasks. This alone is rare because if you have ever seen an episode of The Apprentice you know he usually doesn&#8217;t fire his favorite person. He latches on to one biased impression (looks, first statement, or what his old-man advisor or somehow relevant daughter says) and picks based on that.</p>
<p>Trump was going to pick based on performance but then he asked Chloe, from &#8220;The Kardashians&#8221; why she missed a couple of days. She told the Don she had to make a court appearance for a DUI she received some time ago. Immediately Trump had decided.The Donald fired Chloe because of the drunk driving and told her it was one of the worst things a person could do.</p>
<p>Some of the contestants had a problem with that desission, but Trump stood firm and said he wouldn&#8217;t tolerate that.</p>
<h2>Lead By Example</h2>
<p>With the recent tragic death of Nick Adenhart (Angele&#8217;s pitcher) and passengers, and Donte Stallworth&#8217;s unfortunate car killing, both caused by alcoholics driving, it is nice to see someone take a stance. Trump has basically sent the message that just because you haven&#8217;t hurt anyone by driving drunk, doesn&#8217;t mean that you could not have. This lack of critically thinking, or thinking of others, lead to Chloe getting fired.</p>
<p>Often times DUIs can lead to slaps on the wrists, especially for celebrities (even ones that are famous for having a sister in a leaked sex tape&#8230;basically famous by association). Losing your job can really hit home. Granted in this case Chloe was fired and given $20,000 to her charity of choice&#8230;but still.</p>
<p>There are consequences: your job.</p>
<p>Donald Trump&#8230;good call. Now don&#8217;t let this kudos go to your carpeted head.</p>
