Arrest that woman
Trump is triggered. His people have been telling him to ignore Omarosa and her book, which tells us that they’ve confused him with someone else.
Now advisers fear his rage at Manigault Newman is fueling irrational outbursts that bolster the claim in her book that Trump said the “n-word” during an Apprenticeouttake.
Irrational outbursts? Trump?? Surely not. It’s people like Brennan and Comey who go in for that kind of thing; Trump says so himself.
In recent days, Trump has called Manigault Newman “crazed,” a “lowlife,” and a “dog” on Twitter. His campaign filed an arbitration suit against her seeking “millions.” And Trump told advisers that he wants Attorney General Jeff Sessions to have Manigault Newman arrested, according to one Republican briefed on the conversations. (It’s unclear what law Trump believes she broke.)
No it isn’t! It’s perfectly clear: it’s the law against saying a single harsh word about Trump.
Another Republican recounted how over the weekend Trump derailed a midterm-election strategy session to rant about Manigault Newman’s betrayal.
Look. Election strategy is about other people as well as Trump. Manigault Newman’s “betrayal” is solely about Trump. Which one do you think he’s going to rant about? Let’s stay on our toes here.
One Trump person said it’s a death spiral. That would be good.
It absolutely floors me that his advisers are worried about him having said “the n word”. He’s destroying the country, but that one little factoid would be the thing that ruins his reputation. Seriously?
Agreed, especially since absolutely everyone knows he’s said it many times. It’s not a mystery and it doesn’t really require a recording as proof.
“(It’s unclear what law Trump believes she broke.)”
She violated her NDA! That’s worse than taking a knee during the Anthem, refusing to recite the Pledge of Allegiance and repudiating one’s citizenship, all rolled into one.
I still don’t trust Omarosa, but the tapes are an unexpected and hilarious development. That would be crazy (but totally fine) if she ended up being the one to bring him down.
Skeletor, if that does happen, the most delicious irony would be to have Manigault Newman waiting with a bullhorn by the White House for him to leave, just so she can tell him “You’re fired.”
Snort. I would actually pay to see that.
