Sorry, Omarosa–you do not get to recast yourself as a concerned patriot after exiting the Trump White House.
And yet, here we are.
In a preview clip from the upcoming episode of Celebrity Big Brother (there’s already another one of these?!), former Trump flackey Omarosa explains to RuPaul’s Drag Race judge Ross Matthews that the nation is in danger with Trump in the Oval Office.
Thanks for the warning, Omarosa.
How about we take this to the next level?

She also says that during her stint in the West Wing, she was “haunted” by the President’s tweets. And see, she tried to get him to stop, but “all of the people around him attacked me.”
“It was like, ‘keep her away from him, don’t get her access, don’t let her talk to him,’” she tells Matthews. “And Ivanka’s there, Jared’s there.”
When Matthews asks “Should we be worried?”, she says: “It’s going to not be okay, it’s not. It’s so bad.”
No, Omarosa. Just no.

It’s unfortunate that the leader of the country is and always has been a fu@king idiot. His insecurity drives him in his choices and reactions that ultimately affect the country. Much of what he does and says has become normal, almost expected, but should be a great concern. His antics have allowed him to get away with what would otherwise never be permitted. Through his own “pay to play” program, he’s very likely accepting millions, but not unfamiliar to DJT in much of what he does. Underhanded and illegal financial activities will very likely be a major point of the current investigation, a considerable reason for not wanting his tax returns to be seen. DJT has never been a success in business, from Trump Vodka to Trump The Board Game to Trump Airlines the list goes on, and all failed miserably.

This is a man who has filed bankruptcy 6 x..and lost in excess of 1 billion dollars and he’s running the country. He’s way out of his league. Fortunately for him, his saving grace was having his father bequeath him the Trump Org and his bank balance otherwise it would be a very different life.

An idiot can’t become a billionaire
The left will cry about President Trump’s tax returns but the IRS already has them. If something illegal was happening on there, he would be charged. The only people who want to see his tax returns are people who don’t even understand how tax returns work.
Lastly, all business people have failures in life. No one has 100% success 100% of the time. Just look at people like Bill Gates, Mark Cuban, Richard Branson, Thomas Edison, Walt Disney, etc. It’s what happens in the long term that proves success, and Trump has come back when he took hits in the business world.

An idiot can become a billionaire. Come to NYC, you will see them all over town. Even you can become a billionaire if you were inherited a successfully operating business and $10M in cash in the 80’s. Who knows? People who really understand tax returns, say CPA’s and just financially savvy Americans, would like to see his tax returns. The only people who don’t want to see his tax returns are people who would rather not suffer the disillusion. I am not saying there is anything wrong with his tax returns. I have not seen them. It’s just more thought provoking when one goes the length to break the norm and risks losing the public trust by not releasing what should be described as glorious tax returns showing enviable gross income, don’t you think? No savvy American would blame him for legal deductions so who cares about the net income. Lastly, it is not about the bankruptcies. It happens. But it is not really about failure. It is how he fails. Leaving contractors, partners and workers unpaid and screwed. Not just once or twice. Every time.
However, he was brilliant enough to hire people like Omarosa, Bannon and four other advisors charged lying to FBI so his judgement must be solid.

“An idiot can become a billionaire”
Then why aren’t you a billionaire?
“Even you can become a billionaire if you were inherited a successfully operating business and $10M in cash in the 80’s”
That was in the 1970s, not 80s. However, it shows how successful Donald Trump is to turn a small New York based company worth millions (considering some apartments in NY are $10 million) and turn it into a global business worth millions.
“No savvy American would blame him for legal deductions so who cares about the net income”
The radical left and media are frothing at the mouth for his tax returns so they can dissect them and criticize every aspect of them to start a whole news cycle about them. Rachel Maddow already leaked one of Trump’s tax returns – after she made allegations that he pays no taxes, she had to take it on the chin and admit he pays a lot of taxes.
Parkside
@mhoffman953
Nothing you’ve said provides insight to his brilliance or reasons behind not releasing the tax returns. Thank you for the correction; yes, $10M was even a bigger sum in the 70’s than in the 80’s. I didn’t say any idiot can become a billionaire, only the really smart idiots or really lucky ones. Hmmm, I would choose he latter in this case. Of course $10M ($100M in value in 2018) start-money does help. And is being a billionaire a qualification for presidency? Is there any other credential he can offer? If he has nothing to hide, let’s see the tax returns.
No defense for his lack of humanity and morality in his actions before, during and after bankruptcies towards his investors and colleagues? Speaking of morality, how about infidelity and allegations of sexual misconduct? Failing to condemn and fueling white supremacy? How about that Russian thing? Not enough smoke for you after the revelation of the Tump Tower meeting, guilty-plead by two former advisers of lying to FBI about contacts with Russia and filling the sensitive national security positions with dubious characters with relations to Putin? Oh, on that, if he has nothing to hide, why obstruct the investigation by gagging witnesses? Why not just meet with Mueller himself? How about all his countless untruthful statements, bully-like attacks on anyone who calls him out on his BS and countless racist comments?
Sorry, this is rather talkative but it is sickening to hear any patriotic American stoop to defend this person in the White House. Is the hate for the left so strong that one should forego decency, morality and national security to keep this man going? It should never again be tolerated when a Republican or Christian using their moral superiority to condemn gays, women’s choice and minority religions after closing their eyes on Trump. Hypocrisy is a bitch. Trump has disgraced the office and our country every day via tweet, action and inaction.

A “smart idiot” is an oxymoron, but it’s hard to say that Trump has just been lucky for the past 40 years running the Trump organization and winning the Presidency. People can only be lucky so much, beyond that it takes intelligence and a special set of skills to succeed. Start money does help but it doesn’t guarantee success. Lastly, I never said being a billionaire is a qualification to be President but it does show that the person running understands money and understands how to run an organization. You wouldn’t want someone that’s poor and homeless running for President.
“Nothing you’ve said provides insight to his brilliance or reasons behind not releasing the tax returns”
Just as you asked previously, is being a billionaire a qualification for presidency, neither is how much someone pays in taxes (which in Trump’s case is a lot). Additionally, considering the fact that he owns an existing business organization, it would be a disadvantage to release his tax returns because his business enemies would have insight into the dealings of his company. Our IRS has copies of all of his financial filings and returns. If there is something nefarious in there, they would’ve charged him with a crime.
“No defense for his lack of humanity”
That’s your opinion. I could cite several times where Trump has shown great amounts of humanity throughout his life. Most notably the time that he paid off a widow’s mortgage after he husband killed himself in the late 1980s. Yet, I’m sure you’ll brush it all off with a laundry list of talking points and whataboutisms
“Speaking of morality, how about infidelity and allegations of sexual misconduct? Failing to condemn and fueling white supremacy?”
He has condemned white supremacists throughout his entire career. How many times does he have to condemn these people? Even when he does condemn these people, the lunatics on the left will cry that he said it through a teleprompter, he didn’t say it through a teleprompter, he didn’t speak out fast enough, he used the wrong words, etc. It’ll never satisfy the people who hate this President no matter what he does. Regarding allegations of sexual misconduct, those are allegations. None of these women ever took him to court and none of these women came forward with allegations until 3 weeks before the election. Seems suspicious but doesn’t disqualify someone from being the President. These are the whataboutisms I previously mentioned.
“How about that Russian thing?”
Well, that’s starting to unravel as more information leaks out from FBI agent Strzok’s text messages, Congressional memos, and an upcoming Inspector General report that the idea of “Russian collusion” was falsified to allow for a FISA warrant to spy on the Trump campaign during the election. So far no one has been charged with “Russian collusion” in regards to the 2016 Presidential election. Do you really think Russia changed votes to cost Hillary Clinton the election? If so, show the evidence that Russia tampered with the actual results of the election. No one has shown any evidence of that. If anything, Russia would’ve loved a President Clinton because they could just offer her money to get whatever they want.
“Trump has disgraced the office and our country every day via tweet, action and inaction”
Highly doubtful considering past Presidents we’ve had. This is a talking point people like to throw out to establish moral superiority. If we look at past Presidents, Bush jr snorted coke when he was younger, Clinton was charged with sexual assault by a court and stuck a cigar in a woman’s snatch in the oval office, Kennedy slept with every woman who crossed his path in the White House, Thomas Jefferson owned slaves, and the list goes on. So sending a tweet is far from disgracing the office and our country.
“Is the hate for the left so strong that one should forego decency, morality and national security to keep this man going?”
I don’t hate the left. Many on the left are hanging themselves with their own actions and threatening our nation’s security with their constant push to protect illegal immigrants, contempt for our military and law enforcement, failure to support tax cuts for the middle class, ignorance of our constitution in regards to the 1st and 2nd amendments, disrespect for our nation’s flag and national anthem, and the list goes on.
I would like to see both parties in this country thriving but only one party is offering plans at the moment while the other’s platform is to just resist everything Trump

@mhoffman953
Oh. Hoffman, you’re such a bore! All you’ve said so extensively is so expected from a Trumper. Picking apart a sentence here and a word there, but brushing off the question of why he is so brilliant or qualified. Nor could you offer a real defense for his racist words and behavior, sexual misconduct or bad behavior in business. They must teach these skills at Log Cabin meetings, or is it the Putin Bot Campus?
He doesn’t have a long history of condemning white supremacists; this is just a plain lie. He does, however, have a long history of racist behavior starting from the 70’s when his organization, as a policy, would not rent to blacks. Running a mediocre business that may or may not be so ‘successful’ is not a qualification for leading a country of millions. He lacks the basic understanding of diverse people he is to govern. Yes, a mediocre business. His brand never was that desirable after the early 90’s to New Yorkers or gamblers in New Jersey. Foreign investors, say from China and Russia, do seem to like his products, however. One of the later projects to fail spectacularly was Trump Soho.
An idiot is an idiot with or without money. The definition or the use of the word, IDIOT can be so numerous but you go ahead and stick to your gut on that. IRS has the tax returns of course, but all previous presidential candidates voluntarily disclosed tax returns not just to show what the earnings were but to show how and where they earned them. What is he hiding? Was there income source that was tied to Putin? Let’s see the tax returns so we can clear up any doubts he earned his ‘billions’ honorably.
What policies should we discuss? Giving tax cuts to the wealthy and health-care cuts to the poor? Pulling the US out of Paris Accord? Wanting to build a wall between two countries which is Medieval and just damn useless? Shouldn’t republicans be concerned about spending billions of tax payers money on this wall? Oh, I forgot fiscal conservatism is dead based on the latest budget. Putting DACA on jeopardy risking ruins of millions of children and the integrity of our country? Not pursuing the truth behind Russian meddling in our election process and holding it accountable with sanctions and condemnation? Is it his policy to lie then lie some more?
Nepotism? Yup, that Don Jr., Ivanka and Jared are real geniuses. Please!
Didn’t he promise to drain the swamp and fill it back with the best of the best. Flynn, Bannon, Page, Manafort & Devos all qualify that definition, of course.
Allegations of sexual attacks? Wait, he did admit to grabbing pussies. How many women have come forward so far? Isn’t one of them his ex-wife?
Character? This is a ‘stormy’ subject, isn’t it?
Did you say I spewed the laundry list of the Left talking points? No, these are real concerns any American should have, but go ahead & dismiss them as talking points. Fox and Breitbart say so, therefore, these concerns cannot be legitimate. I am not a blind Republican or Conservative hater. I agree with some their policies and views although I cannot see why they would want to keep minorities down in the name of Jesus. Trump is not like any Republican. I am still puzzled how God fearing conservatives can embrace him.
Anyway, let’s see what Mueller concludes. My money is on indictment. Collusion, tax evasion and obstruction of justice are all on the table.
I have to get to the office to earn my billions so I will catch up later. Ciao~

Trump Inherited his money from a father who was one of the wealthiest people in the country. I LOVE this fake Right Wing memo that if somebody is rich they must be brilliant. Romney inherited his money, Bush inherited his money and Trump inherited his money.
The one difference is, Trump isn’t a billionaire, he went bankrupt 6 times and is in debt an undisclosed amount to foreign money men. If you’re worth 10 billion as he claims, why is Deutchbank holding paper on hundreds of millions in loans to him? IF you have a million dollars in your checking account you don’t leave a $200 balance floating on your credit cards for 6 months.
Oh, but nice try troll.

I did address all of that, but you fail to accept my response and have resorted to ad-hominem attacks attacks in your response. Do you really think I’m a bot, sitting here generating responses? Yikes!
Regarding your perception of “racist” words, I could have said the same thing about Hillary during the 2016 election based upon her past where she called young black men “super predators”, or when her and husband were forced to cancel their membership to a country club that refused blacks, or the legislation she supported in the 90s which led to the mass incarcerations of many people men. Is she racist? No idea.
But are you coming from the standpoint that even though someone doesn’t have racist policies but because someone feels that person made a racist comment, we should not elect that person? That’s rich considering you voted for the other candidate who also was alleged to have said and done racist things but I guess that’s ignored.
Same goes for sexual assault allegations. If your stance is that we can’t have someone who was accused of sexual assault in the White House, then there was the alternative in 2016 which was to put a man in the White House who actually did sexually assault women in the White House. I’m sure you’re defense of all of that will be, “stop mentioning Hillary”. Yet it’s merely used to point out your bias.
“He doesn’t have a long history of condemning white supremacists; this is just a plain lie”
He does. He has condemned people like David Duke and many others throughout his career. Even before the 2016 election, Donald Trump was award the Ellis Island award alongside Rosa Parks. Jesse Jackson has even praised Donald Trump for “embracing the under-served communities”.
“What policies should we discuss? Giving tax cuts to the wealthy and health-care cuts to the poor?”
90% of all Americans received tax cuts. Saying only the wealthy received tax cuts is false. Married couples can now have a standard deduction of $24,000 instead of $12,700, the child tax credit has increased helping families with children, and the rates have been lowered across the board for all Americans. If the tax plan only favored the wealthy, why did they lower the amount of property tax and mortgage interest they can deduct? Also there were no “health-care cuts to the poor”, they just increased CHIP funding.
“‘Pulling the US out of Paris Accord?”
It was wasteful spending considering the US was paying billions while China, India, and other high polluters paid nothing. The US has been reducing carbon emissions over the past 18 years. The Paris Accord will not change that.
“Wanting to build a wall between two countries which is Medieval and just damn useless? ”
It’s medieval and useless? Then why do other countries like Mexico and Israel have walls on their borders?
“Putting DACA on jeopardy risking ruins of millions of children and the integrity of our country?”
The average DACA recipient is not a child but is age 26. Also, President Trump has offered a pathway to citizenship over a 12 year period in exchange for border security concessions but the Democrats have refused, even though both sides could get what they want. I personally disagree with the idea of having a new pathway to citizenship but I can tell you aren’t too concerned about the issues since only 1 out of 10 of your paragraphs in your response dealt with political issues and the rest were mostly accusations of racism and sexual assault.
“Not pursuing the truth behind Russian meddling in our election process and holding it accountable with sanctions and condemnation? ”
Define “meddling” in regards to the “election process”. I bet if you come to a reasonable conclusion on what exactly is “meddling”, you’ll quickly realize that China, Israel, and the UK are meddling in our elections as well.
“Anyway, let’s see what Mueller concludes. My money is on indictment. Collusion, tax evasion and obstruction of justice are all on the table.”
LOL, you say in one sentence, let’s wait and see what happens but in the next sentence seem certain of all of these alleged crimes.
“Left hates Law Enforcement? That’s also a lie. Look what the Trumpers are doing to FBI. Hello??? Taking a stand against excessive force on a targeted population is not hate”
Not a lie, but is misconstruing what I said. I said many on the left. If you don’t believe it, look at BLM marches where they chant that they want dead cops, look at hard left politicians that want to pass legislation to take away protective body armor from police because it makes them too scary looking, and the list goes on but you’ll willfully ignore it.
People on the right are only mad at the higher ups at the FBI for their corruption, not the rank and file. In regards to taking a stand against excessive force, that is perfectly fine, but when radicals on the left use it as justification to paint all cops as bad and use it as a reason to kill cops then there’s a massive problem.

“Trump Inherited his money from a father who was one of the wealthiest people in the country”
True, Trump inherited millions in wealth and he successfully turned it into billions in wealth.
“The one difference is, Trump isn’t a billionaire, he went bankrupt 6 times and is in debt an undisclosed amount to foreign money men. If you’re worth 10 billion as he claims, why is Deutchbank holding paper on hundreds of millions in loans to him?”
Of course, Trump is a billionaire. Trump tower alone is worth $2 billion. The countless other properties over the world are worth a few billion more.
Trump never personally went bankrupt, so to say he went bankrupt 6 times is false and shows that you don’t understand how finance works.
Lastly, all billionaires in business take out large loans (especially now since interest rates are so low). If you think being worth several billion and have millions in debt is absurd, you again have demonstrated that you don’t understand how finance works. Apple is worth billions but has millions in debt on the books – does that mean Apple is a failure, bankrupt, or not really worth it’s alleged value? Absolutely not.
You’re the perfect example of someone who doesn’t understand cash flows, money, or finance, but you’ll pretend you’re the expert HAHA

Short of a proper revolution (sham, gerrymandered elections and online click-tivism will change nothing), it ain’t coming back. America & Russia, are both oligarchic regimes & are currently realigning their interests to create a counterbalance to the very real threats of Islamic fundamentalism and Chinese ascendancy (Soon, China will be far and away the most powerful state on earth – first economically, and afterward, militarily, at least in Asia and Africa).
Trump is the symptom – not the cause of America’s trajectory.
