Michael Cohen isn’t the only longtime Trump loyalist who’s selling Donald Trump out this week
As his criminal scandals have come to the surface and his illegitimate presidency has continued to fall apart, Donald Trump has seen a number of his former loyalists sell him out in dramatic fashion. Trump’s longtime fixer Michael Cohen is leaking incriminating tapes and threatening to bring the whole thing crashing down. But as it turns out, Cohen isn’t the only longtime Trump loyalist who is selling Trump out this week.
Earlier this year Donald Trump’s Chief of Staff John Kelly famously fired Omarosa from the White House, and she reportedly had to be physically removed from the premises. No one could ever figure out what Omarosa, a former Apprentice contestant, was supposed to have been doing in her White House job to begin with, of course. But now she’s decided to seek revenge against Trump, or at least use revenge as a tool for lining her pockets.
After having been silent for a couple months, Omarosa revealed today on Twitter that her tell-all book about her time in Donald Trump’s White House is now available for pre-order. Former Press Secretary Sean Spicer recently released a book which served to dishonesty kiss Trump’s butt, but Omarosa is taking the opposite approach. Her book is called “Unhinged” which is in apparent reference to Trump, and not to her own often-deranged behavior. She included the hashtag “ComeClean45” – and the Amazing listing promises that the book is a “stunning tell-all and takedown” of Trump.
The catch of course is that Omarosa seems to have nearly as much difficulty telling the truth as Donald Trump does. So how much of this book will end up being accurate? We’ll see. But it’s notable that, even as Spicer is eyeing a payday by telling Trump’s loyalists the lies they want to hear, Omarosa seems to think better book sales are to be had by going for Trump’s jugular.
