Former White House aide Omarosa Manigault Newman on Monday released a new tape of President Trump featuring a private discussion about the deadly ambush in Niger last year that left four U.S. soldiers dead.
Manigault Newman played the tape from October 2017 on “MSNBC Live with Craig Melvin.”
Trump can be heard on the tape calling the military a “rough business” and saying that the militants who carried out the ambush are “rough, too."
“They got attacked by 50 real fighters,” Trump says on the tape. “These were people in many cases that were in the Middle East, that now go to Africa to try and, you know, cause problems there.”
About 12 U.S. soldiers and 30 Nigerien soldiers were ambushed by about 50 attackers in the October 2017 attack. In addition to the four U.S. soldiers, five Nigerien soldiers were killed.
Trump also can be heard saying on the tape that he wouldn’t “want to be a terrorist right now,” eliciting laughter from the staffers who were in the room.
“It’s not a laughing matter,” Manigault Newman said on MSNBC. “We lost four American soldiers.”
It was the second tape released Monday by Manigault Newman, who earlier played a tape on ABC’s “The View” that featured Trump talking about former Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton and Russia.
The tape Manigault Newman shared on MSNBC appeared to end where the tape she shared on “The View” begins. At the end of the tape shared on MSNBC, Trump can be heard claiming that the "real Russia story is Hillary and collusion," which is where the tape that Manigault Newman played on “The View” begins.
The ex-White House aide and former contestant on Trump’s reality television show “Celebrity Apprentice” has released a series of tapes that she recorded while working in the White House.
She first began sharing them with news outlets as part of her media blitz to promote her memoir “Unhinged,” a tell-all from her time in the White House.
Low rent, no class, backstabbing lowlife trying to stay relevant / in the news cycle.
Omarosa has used up 14 of her 15 minutes.
That is classified info and she is in deep shit.
How is she getting away with this?
My God, she has absolutely nothing.
Serious violation of the rule of holes.
Everything she recorded, so far, just makes me like him more.
She needs to be in jail, I don’t care if she’s black. Okay, so maybe wait until after midterms.
I don’t understand this. Is she going to get away with this?
“That’s not a laughing matter.”
These people don’t have a clue what they are talking about. They’re like little kids watching the antics in a board room.
So why don’t they bust this front hole?
Saw the last Mission Impossible Movie.
When the Mission Tape was played and then did the self destruct in five seconds bit, all I could think is if Omarosa was there she would have recorded it on her iPhone.
Now, imagine where we would be if an Obama Hater taped every conversation he had in the White House and released them to the Public.
How this is not a Federal Offense is beyond me.
Gentlemen… She illegally taped President Trump… While she was still in “good standings“… This lady is a fraud… Devious… And dangerous. How she is not behind bars I have no idea
As far as I’m concerned, this “insider” knowledge and leaks… Is treason… And these people should be put up against the wall and shot.
I’m not kidding I really believe that to be true.
It seems to me this has now become a national security issue.
Because she is a Commie now and the lefties adore her..last year she was a house N now she is just super awesome. The biggest mistake Trump ever made was putting in that idiot into his Administration..she had NO purpose..in fact, Michael Clarke Duncan’s family believes she was involved in his death
“How is she getting away with this?”
Female and dark colored skin - the ultimate ‘get-out-of-jail-free card in today’s America.
Those that are female, lesbian, and a dark shade score the trifecta...
