NBC has decided to end its relationship with Donald Trump.
On Monday, the network announced that won’t support the presidential hopeful following his recent comments about Mexican immigrants.
“The U.S. has become a dumping ground for everybody else’s problems. When Mexico sends its people, they’re not sending their best,” Trump said. “They’re sending people that have lots of problems. They’re bringing drugs. They’re bringing crime. They’re rapists.”
“Due to the recent derogatory statements by Donald Trump regarding immigrants, NBCUniversal is ending its business relationship with Mr. Trump,” NBC said in a statement, adding, “At NBC, respect and dignity for all people are cornerstones of our values.”
The Miss Universe & Miss USA pageants will not be shown by the network and Trump will no longer host “The Celebrity Apprentice.”
