Clinton calls out Trump for being a sore loser about the Emmys
The United States presidential election is a lot like Modern Family cleaning house. Well, according to Donald Trump.
In the final presidential debate, Hillary Clinton pointed out that Trump has a history of calling competitions rigged — including the Emmys when they neglected to recognize The Apprentice as the greatest show that ever was.

Clinton brought up Trump's tweets in the debate, and sure enough, Trump was very upset about the issue back in 2012.
The Emmys were horrendous...the absolute worst show!

"Amazing Race" winning an Emmy again is a total joke. The Emmys have no credibility—no wonder the ratings are at record lows.

The Emmys are all politics, that's why, despite nominations, The Apprentice never won—even though it should have many times over.

See, Trump knows how to appeal to the youth.
Emmys telecast is way down & lowest telecast on record among young adults. Emmys have no credibility-Should have nominated Apprentice again!

Lots of people agree that the Emmys were a joke—got bad ratings—no credibility!

Even back then, Trump refused to acknowledge the real problems our nation was facing, like the Emmys snubbing Gilmore Girls.
Did the show Gilmore Girls win anything @realDonaldTrump?

@ShawnGarrett I should have many Emmys for The Apprentice if the process were fair-in any event, it's not my day job. ,

"@Agustin_Gil: @ApprenticeNBC @ @KimRichards11 #RHOBH and #CelebApprentice should be part of the Emmys nominations!" Pure politics!

The Emmys are sooooo boring! Terrible show. I'm going to watch football! I already know the winners. Good night.

...and in 2014.
Which is worse and which is more dishonest - the #Oscars or the Emmys?

Let's all remember simpler times, when Trump took the Emmys stage overalls next to Megan Mullally.
