Donald Trump will be hiring and firing ordinary individuals again this fall as NBC revives “The Apprentice,” reports EW.com.  The reboot of the original show, which first aired in 2004 and became the model for “The Celebrity Apprentice,”  will involve 14 contestants who have suffered as a result of the economic downturn. 

“The Donald” tweeted the news to his followers. In a statement, he also said: ”We’ve got to do something about the economy and ["The Apprentice"] is a terrific way to provide jobs as well as business lessons along the way.”

 Twitterville was split about the return:
