NBC Boss: Trump Is ‘Toxic,’ ‘Demented’

Chairman of NBC Entertainment Bob Greenblatt is reported to have ripped GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump in a Facebook post, calling the former NBC reality-TV star “toxic” and “demented.” Greenblatt’s division, which produced Trump’s The Apprentice before he joined the company in 2011, cut ties with the real-estate mogul last year. “The sad state of affairs thanks to a pompous businessman turned reality-TV star (whose show consistently ran LAST in its time period, by the way) who thinks speaking his mind is refreshing,” Greenblatt wrote. “It’s actually corrosive and toxic because his ‘mind’ is so demented; and his effect will unfortunately linger long after he’s been told to get off the stage.” A rep for NBC only commented to Page Six that, “Bob’s Facebook page is not public.”
