  1. Imagine being co winner for someones mistake I'd rather give up the crown that just like saying you didn't deserve the title, but we'll split the crown cause we feel so pity for you, heck no!🤮

  2. kind of a dumb advice from Trump to have it shared between the two contestants solely because they feel bad for Ms. Colombia and so they will strip half of what is rightfully for ms Philippines and apparently that is something that wouldn't make him feel bad. of course that would be upsetting to the winner herself. its like killing fire with petroleum. i'm glad Trump is out of the picture.
    and another thing, over the years we have come to realize that then ms. Colombia was not even worthy of 1st Runner up. such a cry baby at the time but that can be understood. still a contestant of her caliber should have handled it well. she did not handle the mistake very well. she could have set an example and show the people and her fans what the pageantry is about.
    FACTS : the winner is Ms. Philippines but the host made a mistake of announcing the 1st Runner up as the winner. so NO ms. Colombia is not the winner no crown was stolen from her.
    the mistake was unacceptable and it is embarrassing and devastating to ms. Colombia and that is what she and the Colombian fans should have fought for. not that the crown was stolen

  3. If there's a mistake in announcing the winner on 2016 election. Will you allow yourself to have a co-president in the United States? That was a great idea Mr. Trump

  4. Dumb idea! correcting a mistake by another bigger mistake??? The mistake has already been corrected. And that's all about it. If Miss Colombia decided to pursue on suing Mr.Harvey for the humiliation she has all the right but Mr.Harvey on the other hand has the right also to defend himself! He corrected the mistake right there and then i don't know how else he would do it ! He did the right thing!

  5. co winner? no. the thing is, Miss Universe is about helping people and being a spokesperson around the world. If Miss Colombia REALLY wan to help other people she COULD DO IT even WITHOUT the Miss Universe crown. Miss Pia deserves the title and no one other than her should reign as the Miss Universe for this year

  6. It's so obvious that Boonald Tramp loves Latinas that he wanted Colombia to share the crown with the rightful winner. Too bad douchie, you no longer own MU and it's not gonna happen your way! He's definitely trying to win back his "love affair" with the latino community and having a latina win again serves his innate, chronic addiction to latina beauty.

  7. so Donald trump is just an ex owner of the pageant, and thanks God he doesn't oen this now b'coz he's just in favor of Latin women! the pageant is not just for Latin women,he don't deserve to b the owner of the pageant, he always hv a foolish thoughts!

  8. As always, very well spoken Mr. Trump. Good job in defending steve harvey. He is a great guy. I do not agree with having 2 winners though. That would be patronizing to Miss Colombia. Unless it was a total scam, she should just deal with it.

  9. Why give to Columbia? She is not the winner and so she doesn't deserve it. It will be a tremendous disservice to Miss Philippines if she has to share the crown.

    You are suggesting that people can manipulate the winner. All they have to do is to buy the host to'accidentally' announce the winner of his choice, and later said it's a mistake and then share the crown.

    WTF are amercans so conniving and cheats ??????? The west is full of lies and deceit.

  10. Co-winner? What's the purpose for having the runners-up? It's not just the Colombians who felt sad for what happened, but also the whole world. What kind of idea is that! Miss Philippines and Miss Colombia are both candidates, we felt sad for Miss Colombia and specially for Miss Philippines for the reason that, that was supposed to be her moment – her crowning moment. Co-winner!? ..hah! Don't even think about it.
    If that happens to the presidential election – the same situation, I know it's impossible, but what if! … what if that happens in Trump's situation? would he like the idea of having a co-winner! I don't think so.

    #WORLDPEACE

  11. I think co-winner is the absolute worst idea. It's like no one is mature enough to take a loss in this generation. Take the L smile and continue to grow and live life. Everyone saying they would not have made a mistake…Apply that thought to the rest of your life's memories and see if that lie is true?Smh

  12. I'm gonna tell y'all what really happened he wanted to do the best job he could so he messed up couldn't y'all see how nervous he was and that's how it usually ends up happening.

  13. Co winner? What happened already took away from Miss Philippines spotlight & you want her to share it? Hell no. Maybe it was karma, Miss Colombia came off as a total self absorbed BITCH! I can see giving her a small prize on the side to make up for it but Colombia is posting on instagram that she is the real winner and totally arrogant!

  14. would trump be okay if thhe same situation happens with the presidential elections, he thought he lost there was a tabulation error and it turns out that he was reaally the elected one, will he agree to have a co president? i don't think so hahahahahahaha! ms,ph won fair and square she was a victim here too

  15. When Trup was the owner of the pageant , He most of the times had two hosts a man and a woman . I was very surprised to see on 2015 M U , just a male host . Two brains checking what was gonig on, especially the carefull brain of a woman, I am sure that awful mistake would not have ocurred. I think Steve, who did an excellen job, was betrayed by his subconcious . Deep inside he was totally convinced Colombia was the Miss Universe.
