The Apprentice’s Lord Sugar slams Donald Trump as he fears ‘he could be most powerful man in the world’
LORD Alan Sugar has reignited his feud with presidential candidate Donald Trump.
The businessman, who clashed with the American in April, hit out at the former host of the US version of the show during an exclusive screening for series 12 of BBC's The Apprentice.
Discussing last night’s presidential debate between Donald and Hilary Clinton, Lord Sugar also revealed his fears at the thought of Donald triumphing in the upcoming election.
He said: “I saw the debate and... I don't know.
"It’s a frightening thought that he might become the most powerful man in the world.”
During the press conference, Lord Sugar also said: “He’s not as good as me or in my class!
“He has nothing to do with [The Apprentice] other than the fact he once hosted the American version and left under a cloud of uncertainty.”
His outspoken comments come after Donald slated Lord Sugar during an interview with Piers Morgan in May.
Donald, who starred on the American version of the show from 2004-2015, said: “He is a small timer. I mean, he's doing a nice job but don't forget, he works for me - I make money from The Apprentice.
"When we first chose him for the show, he was so low on the economic scale, he didn't really fit the role. I think he's made more money by being on The Apprentice than he has in business.”
