Former White House staffer Omarosa Manigault Newman has claimed in her new book ‘Unhinged’ , that is set come out on August 14 that there are several taps of President Donald Trump using racial slurs and that she saw him behaving ‘like a dog off the leash’ at any event he attended without his wife, the first lady Melania Trump.
Mr. Trump, she said she’d concluded after years of defending him, was a bigot.
“I didn’t want to believe it,” she writes. “I rejected what other people said about him because they didn’t know him like I did. I had to go through the pain of witnessing his racism with my own eyes, and hearing it with my own ears, many times until I couldn’t deny it any longer.”
She has also claimed that the President has been caught on tape using the N-word repeatedly on a reality show’s sets. She acknowledges she had never been able to obtain or hear the tapes but said three unnamed sources had shared it with her.
Claimed that allies wanted to buy her silence
She says she was offered $15,000 a month to serve in a “senior position” on Mr. Trump’s 2020 re-election campaign. But that offer came along with a stringent nondisclosure agreement that was as “harsh and restrictive” as she had seen while working in television.
After turning down the job, she said she received a “flurry” of letters from attorneys representing the President telling her to “stay silent about Trump, or else.”
White House responded
The White House slammed the book and its author, they even criticized the press for writing about it.
“Instead of telling the truth about all the good President Trump and his administration are doing to make America safe and prosperous, this book is riddled with lies and false accusations,” said White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders.
“It’s sad that a disgruntled former White House employee is trying to profit off these false attacks, and even worse than the media would now give her a platform.”
