Donald Trump giving up 'The Apprentice' to run for president
Washington (CNN)Don't expect a new season this fall: Donald Trump is giving up "The Apprentice" so that he can run for president.
The Republican real estate mogul cited the popular reality show as evidence that he "gave up hundreds of millions of dollars in deals and potential, you know, things that I do," in an interview aired Sunday with CNN's Jake Tapper on "State of the Union."
"In all fairness, I don't want it to sound trivial, NBC renewed 'The Apprentice,' because we had a great season last season. And they would love me not to be doing this, I will tell you right now," Trump said.
