Trump denies working with Mark Burnett on return to Reality TV

President Trump took to Twitter Saturday to shoot down speculation he might return to reality television after he leaves the White House.

“Fake News is reporting that I am talking to Mark Burnett about doing a big show, perhaps The Apprentice, after the presidency, which I would assume they mean in 5 years,” Trump said. “This is not true, never had such a conversation, don’t even have time to think about it. False reporting!”

The tweet came after reporting that Trump was eagerly exploring possibilities with Burnett about post-White House career opportunities.

The message was part of more than 30 tweets and retweets from the president Saturday morning.

Trump paired up with Burnett for his NBC hit “The Apprentice.” The show reintroduced Trump to millions of Americans and made the billionaire a household name.
