Trump stalls TV contract while mulling presidential bid
PALM BEACH, Florida – Donald Trump says he has put off agreeing to an extension of his “Celebrity Apprentice” reality show while he weighs a presidential bid.
The real estate mogul and potential Republican contender said he told NBC on Friday he could not commit to a three-year contract extension for the series until he decides whether he’s running.
Trump spoke at an event at his Mar-a-Lago estate on Palm Beach. He offered familiar messages questioning President Barack Obama’s birthplace.

Trump says he’s encouraged by polls showing him with a strong following and says he’ll make an announcement on his campaign plans before June.
