I mean, as long as we’re firing vulgar people…
Much like Roy Moore, Omarosa is waiting to comment until she hears from God on the matter…
To be honest Omarosa is completely useless within the Administration, but man, the timing and the optics on this could not be worse. Literally the same night Trump and the GOP lose a “sure thing” race in Alabama due in large part to minority turnout, they fire one of the few minority people in their administrative staff. #winning #thebestpeople
very vulgar
Please somebody leak what she said. I haven’t had enough vulgarity in my life since the Mooch got fired.
Departure confirmed by Sanders in a statement. She “resigned.” Lol.
You can watch pretty much any episode of Veep and get a pretty good idea of the kind of stuff that gets thrown around in the world of DC politics.
Amy* (aka April whoops) Ryan is reporting that Omarosa tried to wake up Trumpy in the residence to protest her firing, and that prompted the Secret Service to physically drag her off the campus. Yeesh
I think you meant April Ryan.
AURN: Omarosa Out of the White House (audo, quick transcription below)
Minister Omarosa Manigault, friend of Donal Trump, who is also a Trump staffer, has resigned. She signed a negotiated resignation letter saying that her last day was January 20, but the devil is in the details. Apparently General Kelly gave Omarosa notice that it was time for her to go last night. She was very upset and said that she wanted to speak to the President. According to sources, General Kelly said the President was already informed and he signed off. General Kelly is also alleged to have said that “this is not like going to the principal’s office”. Then Omarosa Manigault was very vulger, according to sources, as well as using curse words. Omarosa Manigault was not the only one allowed to leave. Her assistant is said to have been let go as well. Meanwhile, according to sources Minister Omarosa Manigault did not take the information about her filing or resignation very well. She walked over to the residence and tried to get in. General Kelly was called back to deal with this issue as Omarosa was trying to get into the residence to see the President. Secret Service stopped her and she was escorted off campus. It’s not known if she will be back to fulfill her negotiated resignation date of January 20 but there was said to be high drama at the White House last night as Omarosa Manigault, who made $180,000.00 a year, was let go. Now, according to sources, during that altercation with General Kelly, Omarosa said that she had brought the black vote to President Trump. General Kelly says, “No, that is not the case.” She also cited the HBCUs and General Kelly is said to have said that “the new head of the HBCU initiative doesn’t like you.” The drama continues. More coming.
I absolutely did! Apologies April.
Does Omarosa count as black? I have to believe her generally craziness is far more important than the color of her skin for most people. I figure I watched maybe 1/3 or 1/4 of episodes of the Apprentice and mostly as background noise. Omarosa is really the only person on the show I remember a decade later. She is a lot like Dennis Roddman, what makes them colorful and fun to watch has absolutely nothing to do with their race.
Of course she counts. She’s a black woman. She’s also an idiot and a vile person. Every group has some. Her being willing to take on the role of token black woman to Trump’s side always made me angry and sick.
Oh God I hope that’s true. So awesome.
Oh right that privileged idiot. Well I did say some, not one.
I’m struggling with how to articulate this. I’m just not sure how firing Omorosa is really going to hurt Trump.
First and foremost she is an idiot and vile person with no business being in the White House (This certainly applies to many/most White House staffers) So getting rid of her should be viewed as a good thing.
I find it hard to believe that there is a black Republican or even white Republican, who generally supports Donald Trump, but is turned off by the racism of the administration, who is going to say ok the firing of Omorosa is the last straw, I can no longer support Donald Trump.
If say Condi Rice was Sec. of State, and Trump fired after the election for the letter she wrote about the election. I could easily imagine people getting upset. Even if Ben Carson, had weighed on the election and gotten fired. But Omorosa getting fired for what we can tell is simply being the crazy drama queen that she is, is anybody but her mom going to care?
If you’re wondering whether this looks good for Trump to do what he did on the day he did, it does not. That’ assuming if you even care what black people think. He and his Nazi supporters clearly do not, and it’s not as if she is more vile than all the other viles he surrounds himself with. Is the WH full of drama driven, unprofessional, hateful, sexist and racists people… so why fire her? Because she can’t get the black vote… yeah who are they going to put in there that’s going to get that while he supports white supremacy?
I’m still going with April Ryan’s version of events. That or it was Trump’s other security team. Or it was just Kelly himself who ejected her.
