Piers Morgan forced to apologise as Lord Sugar SWEARS during live President Trump rant

Piers Morgan was forced to apologise to Good Morning Britain viewers after Lord Sugar called President Trump a “t*****”.

The business tycoon blasted the President of the United States during a live interview on the breakfast show after they played a clip of Mr Trump slating him to Morgan.

Lord Sugar said: “I tell you, you could write a cheque using my total funds of around about £250 million, present it to the bank and it would be paid.

“That t***** with the hair…,” he continued as Morgan interjected: “Oh please! That’s the President of the United States, Alan.”

A third tweeted: “Absolutely crying that @Lord_Sugar just called Donald Trump a t***** . Comedy gold.”

Several called it the “best interview they had seen in a while”.

The breakfast show anchor had shown Lord Sugar the clip from a recent interview he conducted with Mr Trump while they killed time waiting for Prime Minister Theresa May to make a statement outside Downing Street.

Lord Sugar also reiterated his vow that he would “leave the country” if Jeremy Corbyn were to become Prime Minister.

He said: “I just want to make a statement and, as much as I hate this, if he becomes PM I am out. I am leaving. I will, nothing to do with tax.

“I worry about my grandchildren and my grandchildren’s children under this fella. It would be like watching the mother-in-law drive the Ferrari over the cliff.”

Good Morning Britain is on ITV, weekdays at 6am
