Description

Gabriel Sherman discusses his new Trump biopic, The Apprentice, and the toxic bond between Roy Cohn and a young Donald Trump. He reflects on how Cohn’s influence shaped Trump’s political tactics and character, revealing a dark legacy of manipulation and corruption. Sherman also offers insight into the behind-the-scenes struggles surrounding the film, including Trump’s ultimately unsuccessful efforts to block its release—yet another predictable, calculated move.
