Another Day, another derogatory book about Trump.

Repeat at 1, noon central.  Aren't people starting to get tired of it all?

Yep. Some of us warned about that.

It's good to see that you will now be voting Democrat this fall.

Trump Says White House Is No Place for Lying Lowlife from Reality Show

BEDMINSTER, New Jersey (The Borowitz Report)—Blasting his former colleague Omarosa Manigault, Donald J. Trump said on Monday that “the White House is no place for a lying lowlife from a reality show.”

“People were impressed by Omarosa because they saw her on a TV show,” Trump told reporters from his golf course in Bedminster, New Jersey. “Well, I’ve got news for you: being on a reality show does not qualify you to work in the government.”

"Riddled with lies and false accusations"

But enough about Trump.

What about the book?

Nothing to do with Trumply, Omarosa has given differing and inconsistent accounts.  She fubar'd this entirely on her own.

We need a fucking credible account and an impeccable witness.  Omarosa has/is neither.  

VERY annoying, I'd fire her too.

Don Regan wrote a great kiss and tell on Ron and Nancy, it is beyond frustrating with some great extant examples such as that to use as a guide,  Omarosa still managed to fuck this up so badly and so rapidly.

I don't think anyone here is arguing she is a girl scout. She is an opportunist, but again, when you take into account all the vile dehumanizing comments the President has made repeatedly almost on a daily basis, outside her personal contact with him, it adds up to her being consistent with what others have said even if you don't like her personally.

Any law investigator or prosecutor will NOT rely on claims alone, they get evidence that backs up the claim. It does not matter to me that Omarosa is trying to make a buck off all this. I am not shocked, but when you take into account the fact 45 did not rent to blacks in the 70s. Called for the death penalty for the Central Park 5 whom were eventually cleared and proven innocent. When he perpetuates 5 years of "secret black Muslim". when he starts his campaign calling Mexicans rapists, when he calls for a ban on an entire religion, when he refuses to condemn KKK and Nazi supporters and vilifies REPEATEDLY black NFL players, when Omarosa says he said vile things in front of her in private, that sounds very credible in the context of is long term behavior we do know about.

It is really no different than what law and prosecutors are doing in the Manafort case. They are not just using those who admitted committing crimes. That alone if they only stuck to mere word, could easily be subject to appeal. No, they are backing up the flippers, with paperwork and employees who were conned but not in on it. 

I find Omarosa's statements about him saying racist things very credible, regardless of knowing she is an opportunist.

I find the claims entirely plausible, but Omarosa is in the big leagues now, and rookie mistakes ain't helping her sway the people who need swayed.  The recordings are interesting, but we haven't heard the money shot, yet, have we??

Trumply smashed 17 rivals for the 'pub nomination and beat Hillary despite her 2X larger $$$ warchest, the guy, despite his manifest faults, is damn good at winning, and Omaraosa needs to be at the top of her game if she is to have even a molecule of a chance to zorch him.

She has to do better than just tell Trump oponenets what they want to hear, she has to execute this perfectly. She keeps making noobie mistakes and she might as well give up.

[The Grand Nudger]

Trump supporters want to hear him berating minorities with ethnic slurs.  That's what they signed up for.

Trump supporters want to hear him berating minorities with ethnic slurs.  That's what they signed up for.

And, that's exactly what they are getting;

On NBC's "Meet the Press" yesterday, Omarosa Manigault Newman told Chuck Todd that after her upcoming book had gone to press, she personally heard a recording in which Donald Trump used is the infamous "n-word." She said that confirmed what she had already thought of him: He is a racist.
Unlike some other people who have criticized Trump, she was a colleague and a "friend" (as much as that is possible with him) for a decade. In the interview, she repeatedly admitted that she was complicit in Trump's deceptions over a long period of time. When Todd asked her why she didn't quit much sooner, after she began to conclude that he is a racist, she said that she was the only black person at the table, and that if she quit, there would be none. Indeed, after her firing, no other black folks have been hired for a position as high as hers, so her concern was justified. Most likely the only reason Trump hired her in the first place is that she was a high-profile black woman who was willing to carry his water, no matter what he said or did. People like that are in short supply.

She also described her firing as being especially intimidating....
