Omarosa Escorted Out Of White House

It appears Trump has fired Omarosa Manigault... for a third time. Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian, the hosts of The Young Turks, break it down. Tell us what you think in the comment section below.

“Former reality TV star Omarosa Manigault Newman, who was fired this week from her job as a Trump White House aide, reportedly was tempted to quit the Trump administration this past summer over her frustration with President Donald Trump’s handling of neo-Nazi rallies in Charlottesville, Virginia.

An unnamed “White House official” tells BuzzFeed that Omarosa had grown increasingly “fed up” with the way Trump and his administration handle racially charged issues — and she was apparently frustrated at being the only woman of color in Trump’s White House.

“She struggled with being an African-American senior staffer, with all the racial incidents in the White House, and I think it was starting to weigh on her,” the source explained.

Trump has a long history of making racist statements — such as his remark that Judge Gonzalo Curiel’s “Mexican” heritage prevented him from being able to fairly preside over the Trump University lawsuit — but Omarosa has nonetheless stood by him publicly until her firing this week.

BuzzFeed’s source also said that the Trump White House was a “draining” place to work because it always seemed to flail wildly from one crisis to the next.”

Ana's sound effects are on point tonight lol

[nancylindquist]

She is a black woman in the White House? How long was she supposed to last? She should have known.

[AITrademarket]

Her main achievement was lasting longer than Flynn and the Mooch, while doing nothing. Got to give her that lol

[fayney]

I don’t understand people who make deals with the devil and then get angry when he doesn’t keep his part of the bargain?

[legovirgo]

Omarosa is gonna miss that $180K paycheck, though.

[Xenophage]

There go the rats... we'll see more of them crawling out of this sinking ship before it disappears into the swamp.

[bradleyj.fortner]

Ana's hair and make-up person was on point tonight. She looked even better than usual.

[crk]

We, as taxpayers, were paying $179, 700\year for her salary, which is the maximum for a White House staffer. Can anyone tell me WTF she actually did there?

[pathocrat]

Trump needed a Black. Now he doesn't -- bye.

[themoviedealers]

DOWN GOES OMAROSA!! DOWN GOES OMAROSA!!

[sanqiangli]

It's official. The Apprentice: White House Edition.

[nuyou]

Roy Moore now Omarosa, it truly is Christmas.

[TheDiesel]

All I can see is Uncle Phil throwing Jazz out. Hahaha

[texasfoo]

We the black community will like to trade Omarosa for Eminem.

I'm 99.9999% fine with Omarosa getting fired, for all the reasons others have already detailed, but what does piss me off is someone saying she was vulgar and whatnot... have they seen their president. The idea that John Kelly, who's been willing to debase himself by working for Trump, had her escorted out and acted as if her behavior was so beyond the pale pisses me off... I'd've cussed his ass out too.

[mirabellapantha]

I remember seeing Omarosa on a Frontline episode just before the 2016 elections gleefully talking about keeping an enemies list of all the people who talked shit about Trump and how Trump was going to remember and deal with them all after he got elected. How sweet it is to find her out on her ass less than 14 months after that show aired.

Between that and Moore's loss in Alabama, I'm starting to have hopes for this country again.

[Xenophage]

What did she do exactly, anyway? Does anyone know what her job was? All I could find was "Assistant to the President". Is that a real job title or was it made up just to get her in there? The whole thing seems super fishy to me. Lots of shady people with unspecified jobs in this White House.

[Nightlurk]

So it seams General Kelly is officially the acting president of the US. Which isn't bad at all given the circumstances...

[Lone]

I cant believe Michael Clarke Duncan was about to marry this woman.

[Nubyrc]

You take a job cleaning toilets and then shocked to find they are full of shit
