Video: Trump Fired 'Celeb Apprentice' Contestant For Treating Board Room Like 'A Locker Room'

As America learned on Friday, Donald "Grab 'em by the pussy" Trump has some interesting ideas about what people talk about in locker rooms.

To recap: A decade-old tape of the Republican presidential candidate boasting about groping and kissing women without their consent, and getting away with it because he's famous and influential, went viral Friday. Trump has sort of apologized for it since then, but his initial response in a statement to the media was to write off his comments, including the gem "Grab 'em by the pussy" as mere "locker room talk." As many have been quick to respond: No, locker room talk does not typically revolve around boasts about assaulting and sexually violating women, Donald. That's just you.

Of course, definitions are fuzzy, and one person's "locker room talk" could be another person's garden-variety potty humor. At least, that seems to be The Donald's logic in a Celebrity Apprentice clip unearthed by the Daily Show that shows Trump firing a contestant from Illinois for treating his board room like a locker room, or something.

in the clip, professional wrestler Maria Kanellis-Bennett accuses celebrity chef Curtis Stone of "taking a crap" in her dressing room, and Trump eventually concludes that her "disgusting" attitude is not fit for his board room:

So let's get this straight: Stone used his colleague's dressing room and didn't leave it as he found it, and Kanellis-Bennett gets fired for bringing it up. Solid executive judgement there.
