Donald Trump only "asked" Randal his opinion so that he could appear to be the good guy when Randal did what any sensible Apprentice Winner would do. It was completely unfair of him to ask Randal to do what no other Apprentice had been asked to do after all that hard work: share the spotlight. Trump doesn't make ANY quick or on-the-spot decsions. He would have been the bad guy, by forcing 2 contestants to share what was always meant to be a SINGLE WINNERS SPOT, so he chose the easiest way out and now Randal looks like the bad guy. What's even sadder is, Randal can NEVER enjoy the post Apprentice talk show circuit in the same way previous winners have. Now he's the selfish guy who stole "poor Rebecca's" chance away. Trump is really an idiot and he's definitely lost one viewer. Poor Randal. He really got a crappy deal

I agree to a point. I have to admit, at first I was dissapointed that Randal would make that choice. But after I thought about it for a while,if he had said yes and Trump had hired Rebecca, I would have been more dissapointed in the long run because every apprentice finale after this one would not mean much to me. What I mean is that if there were two amazing competitors who seemed to be in a close competition, the suspense would no longer intrigue me to watch and wonder who might win because I would just think, "Oh! he'll probably just hire them both like he did in The Apprentice 4!" I feel that although it seemed like a selfish act at the time, Randal may have kept the Apprentice concept alive "The winner takes all" and really who in this world has not wanted to bask in the glory of being the sole winner at least once in their lifetime? Be honest!
