This is what happens to everyone that hires people that consider themselves a minority for no reason.

Sounds like she broke a lot of rules. Wonder what her political and employment background is? Had she ever held a real job?

Looks photo shopped to me.

Notice how you can see a faint “shadow” of her right shoulder and arm, almost as if Trump is a bit translucent, and you can see them through Trump’s suit.

Experts in photoshop feel free to comment.

$2,000 per month for her role - she is a paralegal is upset that her colleague, Marc Elcock, a full-time lawyer, earned more.
Wow no quality difference there.

If you look over her linked in page....she sure doesn’t seem able to hold down a job very long....

Donald Trump reacts perfectly to yet another whack a mole attack....

‘She made it up,’ he said flatly of the quote she attributed to him in a complaint she filed with the Davenport, Iowa Civil Rights Commission, saying the phrase ‘you guys could do a lot of damage’ is something he has ‘never’ said.

‘It isn’t even in my vocabulary. I mean I might say someone is attractive, but that’s just not a phrase I would ever use. It’s not true,’ he said.

And Trump added that ‘I have no idea who this woman is. Where do they find these people?’

Apparently, she wasn't doing it very well. Otherwise, he'd have retained her. So just run along now, sweetcakes.

Wait until Michael Cohen Trump’s chief attorney takes a hold of this. Prediction: this will disappear never to be heard from again.
