Last week's leaked 2005 hot-mic recording of Donald Trump bragging to former “Access Hollywood" correspondent, Billy Bush, that he could grab women "by the pussy" and get away with it because he's a star, may just be the tip of the iceberg.
Over the weekend, Bill Pruitt, a producer on the first 2 seasons of "The Apprentice," an NBC reality television show in which Trump starred, tweeted that the Republican presidential candidate said far more damaging things while taping episodes.
"As a producer on seasons 1 & 2 of #theapprentice I assure you: when it comes to the #trumptapes there are far worse. #justthebegininng," Pruitt wrote.

Trump can allegedly be seen or heard using the N-Word on the tapes. Any staffer who releases them would face a lawsuit from Marc Burnett, the creator of "The Apprentice," for breaking confidentiality agreements.
Chris Nee
On Sunday, October 9, producer Chris Nee, who did not work on "The Apprentice," tweeted that she is not in possession of the tapes, but has heard about them. Nee added that she had signed a confidentiality agreement with Burnett.
In one of the tweets Nee tells Mark Cuban, a Trump foe, that $5 million would cover the legal costs of releasing the tapes.
"@mcuban the price is 5 million to cover the penalty fee. And we all get to hear him use the N word from what I hear," Nee tweeted. "I don't have the tapes. I've signed a Burnett contract & know leak fee is 5 mill. Hearing from producers/crew N word is the 'much worse.'"

David Brock
Hillary Clinton ally David Brock said he'd be willing to help cover the costs.
"If a $5 million "leak fee" is what stands between truth and total #Trump implosion, sign me up," Brock wrote on the social networking site.

A GoFundMe page has already been started.
According to the New York Daily News, Fox News Channel’s Geraldo Rivera, is also in possession of damaging Trump video or audio.
“I have interviewed Donald Trump many times and been with him many times and I have tapes,” Rivera said on the network’s “The Five” program. “My brother and I have been starting to go through the tapes now and there are statements that, in the context of the current climate, would be embarrassing.”
I don’t think we need secret video of Trump using the n-word for people of color to know what he thinks of them.

Half of Trump's supporters are so excited to hear the tape of him using the N-word. It will lock in his base for years to come. I'm serious.

I assume that if tape emerges of Trump saying the N-word, he'll have to drop out, though I also assume that he'll never drop out.
