By Jocelyn Vena Donald Trump Photo: George Napolitano/FilmMagic When Jesse James appeared on “The Celebrity Apprentice” last season, he was fired by “boss” Donald Trump. And Trump believes that the same fate will befall him in his relationship with Oscar winner Sandra Bullock as a result of his alleged affairs. “Well, he self-destructed. Jesse really self-destructed,” Trump told MTV News on Monday night on the Dressed to Kilt red carpet in New York City. “He was on ‘The Apprentice’ and he did a really good job. He’s a tough guy. He’s very sullen, but he’s tough. But he really did self-destruct and I can’t imagine after what he’s been with and what he’s done that he gets Sandra back.” Further addressing James’ reported affairs, Trump added that it seems likely that he and Bullock will go their separate ways. “I don’t think he can get Sandra back,” he continued on the red carpet. “I would imagine that Sandra’s had it with everything’s that happened. I don’t think he can get Sandra back.” So, what about that other famous guy who reportedly cheated on his wife? Does Trump think that Tiger Woods can repair his image and his marriage? “Well, Tiger can be repaired by winning,” he said. “And he will win.” Since news broke of James’ alleged infidelities, Bullock has canceled several high-profile appearances and James checked into rehab for “personal issues.” James also has issued an apology to his superstar wife about the allegations. “There is only one person to blame for this whole situation, and that is me,” he said. “It’s because of my poor judgment that I deserve everything bad that is coming my way. This has caused my wife and kids pain and embarrassment beyond comprehension and I am extremely saddened to have brought this on them. I am truly very sorry for the grief I have caused them. I hope one day they can find it in their hearts to forgive me.”
