DONALD TRUMP is so impressed with STEPHEN BALDWIN's performance on CELEBRITY APPRENTICE, he's convinced the show will kickstart his acting career.

The Usual Suspects star has failed to live up to early promise and emulate his more successful older brother Alec.

But Trump predicts the reality show will give Baldwin, 41, a boost.

He says, "Stephen Baldwin is really going to change his public image on this show. He was steely, steady. I thought he was a flake and he's not a flake."
