Awesomely, Trump starts off by saying that it would really be bad if Busey has said it to Lil Jon. I am stunned. Trump is playing a preemptive Race Card on somebody else’s behalf. Essentially he’s saying, “Boy, it would be bad if Busey started using racial slurs. Isn’t that right, Lil Jon?” Sigh. Well, as we covered last week, Trump is “a great friend to the blacks”. John Rich is actually irritated that there’s a possibility somebody could be more offended than he is right now, and asserts that Busey calling him “boy” is exactly as bad as if he had said it to Lil Jon. Which it isn’t, and he is stupid for even suggesting that it is. Basically, John is proving to be even more tone deaf than Trump here, and that really takes some doing.
You could tell, even after the entire project crashed and burned, Trump didn’t want to send Busey home because the show is less entertaining without him.
See, I disagree. Trump only thinks the show is less entertaining, but I was so much more relaxed watching this week without his crazy ass invading the personal space of everyone he came in contact with.
Yeah, it was definitely more entertaining to watch without Busey — not only did he make me uncomfortable, but he was leeching screen time from everybody else. We don’t really know much about how the various people interact with one another, because the editing was so Busey-focused. I think I would have been happier if he just popped up once every episode to say something crazy and then moved on.
