Black Americans aren't buying Omarosa's turn against Trump
ABC News ^ | August 15, 2018 | Jesse J. Holland, The Associated Press

Posted on 08/15/2018 11:20:19 AM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet

For years, Omarosa Manigault Newman stood at Donald Trump's side, making her deeply unpopular with African-Americans who see her as a sellout for aligning herself with a president who has hurled one insult after another at black people.

Her falling out with Trump and her decision to call him a racist as she sells her new book — and in turn, his calling her a "dog" — have not been enough for many African-Americans to invite her back to the family picnic.

Too little, too late, many said.

"Her tell-all mea culpa won't win her any brownie points with most blacks," said Earl Ofari Hutchinson, author of the book "Why Black Lives Do Matter." ''Their loathing of Omarosa is virtually frozen in stone. She's still roundly lambasted as a two-bit opportunist, a racial sellout and an ego driven hustler."(continued)

Name one insult? Also, calling her a dog wasn’t racial. As it turns out, Trump called a lot of people dogs as Laura pointed out on her show last night.

More Lib panties are wadded up.

Does anyone think that she was ever close enough to Trump in the WH to know anything or that anyone confided in her given that she is widely hated and had a do-nothing job that apparently she was rarely doing?

Just a pack of lies that she got paid a lot of money for. But in the end I bet she has a very hard time getting another job.

A steady diet of hate is really not good for you.

No worries. Her 7 figure deal with her failed book will go to the Trump Election campaign after they’re done suing her stupid ass to bankruptcy for breaking the confidentiality agreement. MAGA

Such Fake News. He wasn’t a racist then. That was before he announced his candidacy. He only became a racist when he chose to run for President as a republican. That’s when they all become racists. /sarc

That’s right. That dog won’t hunt.

Here’s a simple question: If Donald Trump was such a racist, and she knew this long ago, then why did she go to work for him?

Of course, the answer is that Trump is NOT a racist (that would have come out LONG ago in the NYC tabloids, if it were true), and that she is trying to cash in on her firing by using the “Racist!” dog-whistle. Anyone with 2 working neurons can see this - no wonder she was fired, she’s as dumb as a bag of hammers.

“with a president who has hurled one insult after another at black people.”

Sure, some black people are fat, some are ugly, some are stupid. White people are not immune if they are fat, ugly or stupid. Or all of the above.

-—Name one insult? Also, calling her a dog wasn’t racial.-—

Trump insults ALL his political enemies. He’s an equal-opportunity roaster.

As Henry Higgins famously said to Eliza (paraphrasing):

“The question isn’t whether I treat you badly, the question is whether I treat others any better.”

Not promoting Wiki - but this 44 yr. old has had a very tumultuous and conflicted life. Worked in the Clinton WH (problems there) and has been married three times. Seems to be emotionally unstable - and that’s being kind.

No children to date.

I can’t stop thinking of her turn in the same way as I recall the angry girlfriend in the Chris Rock “How not to get your a** kicked by the poh-leece: video ... “He got weed! He got weed!”

I don’t that that’s exactly what’s being claimed.

The Left (it isn’t really “blacks” because a sizable minority of black persons at least like what Trump is doing and aren’t scarfing up the Left’s perfidious line) certainly hates any who support Trump. They probably hate folks who don’t oppose him virulently enough.

But turning against Trump after supporting him in any way simply isn’t enough to get back in their bad graces even if you’re black and otherwise of a victim class. You’ll note her turning against him doesn’t win her enough woman points either.

Can we assume a poll was done? Or is this more BS projection...
