Yet another Omarosa tape has been released, this time seeming to show Lara Trump offering the former “Apprentice” star $15,000 a month to “be positive” after her firing late last year. This is a massive confirmation in the latest of the Omarosa leaks. This confirmation shows that figures like Sean Spicer, who remains a strong supporter of Trump despite the attacks against his character by the Trump administration, may not be sincere supporters of the President after all. As for the payment, the recording shows that Lara Trump, wife of Eric Trump, offered Omarosa a job. However, the job wouldn’t require her to report to any particular office or have a specific set of duties, other than to speak positively on Trump’s behalf as part of his re-election campaign. Lara Trump goes on to say, “It sounds a little like, obviously, that there are some things you’ve got in the back pocket to pull out.”
“Clearly, if you come on board the campaign, like, we can’t have, we got to … ”
Omarosa interjects: “Oh, God no.”
“Everything, everybody, positive, right?” asks Lara Trump.
The former “Apprentice” star was one of Trump’s most prominent African American supporters during the campaign, before being hired on as a White House Assistant earning $179,000 per year. Since then, Manigault Newman alleges there is a tape of Trump using a racial slur while working on “The Apprentice.” Trump has since denied this, and has lashed out at his former aide on Twitter, calling her “wacky and deranged,” ”not smart,” and a “dog.” Leaving only one question, if Omarosa is a “not smart,” “wacky and deranged…dog,” why would Trump hire her for 3 stints on “The Apprentice” and to work as director of communications for the White House office of public liaison?
