Omarosa cuts off 'Today' appearance, tells Savannah Guthrie to 'calm down' during bizarre interview
Fox News ^ | August 13, 2018 | Brian Flood

Omarosa Manigault-Newman appeared irritable and fumed at Savannah Guthrie before abruptly cutting off an appearance on NBC’s “Today” show on Monday morning, claiming she had another interview to get to minutes after proclaiming, “I’ve got all the time you need.”

Manigault-Newman was on the morning show to share a recording of a conversation she says she had with President Trump the day after she was fired by White House Chief of Staff John Kelly. Guthrie began the interview by playing the recording and plugging Manigault-Newman’s new book, “Unhinged,” but things quickly turned awkward.

Guthrie asked the former “Apprentice” star if Trump was lying in a tape that was played seconds earlier, but Manigault-Newman wanted to talk about a different topic and started asking rhetorical questions about why Kelly allegedly mistreated her. She also focused on Trump saying “they” run a big operation at the White House.

Guthrie tried to take charge of the chat, but Manigault-Newman barked back, “I’ll get to the second part.”

Guthrie then attempted to ask a follow-up question, but Manigault-Newman shot it down.

Was Guthrie not treating the Honorable Omarosa with the deference that she believed she was due?

It wasn't illegal under D.C. law since that only requires the approval of one of the parties being taped. But taping a conversation in a secure area like the Situation Room? I would not be surprised if that didn't violate some federal law.

Ha! I think that could probably be said about the back and forth of the both of them. :^)

Guthrie failed to sufficiently recognize that Omarosa was being accused of "violating national security while black."

You’re correct, it appears to be an autobiography, properly named.

LOL. She’s just a prostitute of a different sort. She is trying to be one of those celebrities who are famous for being famous, as opposed to being famous because they actually accomplished something noteworthy.

From PBS Interview”

In her interview with NPR's Rachel Martin, Manigault Newman claims to have heard the tape and heard Trump using that slur on the tape.

But that's not what it says in her tell-all book Unhinged, due out on Tuesday.

When asked about the discrepancy by Martin in the interview, Manigault Newman insisted Martin must not have read the book (she had) and pointed to a section at the very end of it.

But in that section, Manigault Newman doesn't actually describe hearing the tape. She writes of calling one of her "sources" who had a lead on the "N-word tape."

Be wary of women with a hyphenated last name.

Stop blaming the President for other’s evil actions.

Half the country voted for Obama twice and more than half voted for Hillary.

It’s slim pickings for non-evil people now days.

Have to give it to Guthrie when at the end of the interview and the skank was hyping her book, Guthrie said the name of the book “Unhinged” and then asked, “who is that referring to”, which was clearly a jab at Omar, who was “unhinged” throughout the interview.

You’re on the right track. The White House Situation room is a SCIF - and a VERY sensitive one at that. Sneaking in and using recording devices is not your run of the mill security violation. It is Espionage under 18 U.S. Code Chapter 37. Further, President Trump issued new Non-disclosure edicts, which all WH personnel signed. Legally, she’s screwed - if the White House has the politically will to pursue the case.
