Never thought I'd ever say, "I'm with Omarosa!1" - on MTP.

[UTUSN]

Preamble of this post: To the coterie who finds meaning in their lives flaming with, "Why post this crap here" - please, just skip my threads and let my sometimes smart alecky and occasionally cogent posts sink on their own, with my unfailing courtesy to DUers (while describing the flamers' traits without personal attacking).

I don't care what a flake Omarosa is, but in the SHITLER world we live in now, she is out there being a thorn in his side, is getting attention doing it (probably the best sacred RATINGS Chuck TODD gets, ever), and in a war against slime SHITLER there are many fronts and many types of weapons (high and low), and if this one is leaving a mark so be it!1

Anyway, she TAPED John KELLY and they played it on MTP!1 He wasn't screaming, but he was being deadly threatening. She cool and collected, both on the tape and on MTP. I won't buy her book, but will thoroughly enjoy her stirring the pot!1

[dubyadiprecession]

1. I won't bother buying her book.

[salin]

6. All the fun gossipy items will surely make it into the press without having to read the thing.

[HipChick]

2. Meh....what's one liar to another? Looking forward to reading the book..

Knowing that its out there burns Shitler's

[smirkymonkey]

3. I am no fan of Omarosa, but I welcome anybody who is a thorn in

DT's side. "The enemy of my enemy is my friend."

I am not a purist and I don't care what people used to be or think. If they hate him now and are joining the chorus against him, then I have no complaints.

[UTUSN]

10. Without a *doubt* he's roiling more about her than Charlottesville or any other weighty thing!1

[blaze]

4. It's the White House version of Clue!

Omarosa, in the Situation Room, with a Tape Recorder!

[UTUSN]

5. KELLY: "Staff don't work for him, they work for me." To her question, Does DT know about this?

[salin]

7. Not watching - so thanks for the quote.

[UTUSN]

11. She showed the non-disclosure contract (no trashing him/family/PENCE, etc.) and claims

just about everybody who's gone has signed it. TODD saw the e-mail to her offering her a job with a PAC for $15K (per month?), where she didn't have to do any "work" or even show up, just to shut up.

[salin]

20. That is big. The Hushmoney Presidency.

I will watch the rerun, this pm on MSNBC.

[True Dough]

26. Except Col. Mustard

Is now President Cheeto.

[Achilleaze]

8. What was Kelly huffing and puffing about on the tape?

Not getting enough propaganda support from the russians?

[UTUSN]

13. Firing her. In the Situation Room. Threatening her "reputation" - HAH!1

[Achilleaze]

15. Thank you.

[FM123]

9. I'm not exactly "with" Omarosa

but she serves as a kind of "useful idiot" against trumpy, so for the time being and I am all for letting Omarosa be Omarosa at this point....

[dalton99a]

12. I welcome ammunition from all quarters

The evil regime must be brought down.

[UTUSN]

14. Hear, hear!1

[spanone]

16. so chuck todd put her on Meet the Press?

wow, chuck has devolved Meet the Press to the level of the national enquirer

[UTUSN]

18. The boy would like to taste what *ratings* feel like!1 She's on Today tomorrow morning.

[KayF]

21. she was the "Director of Communications for the Office of Public Liaison in the White House "

blame Trump for putting this liar in that position in our government. Since he put her there, she's legitimate news.

As long as she's treated with appropriate skepticism, which Chuck did imo.

[spanone]

23. legitimate news?.....there's nothing legitimate about this administration

she was all in for trump until she wasn't

[UTUSN]

24. Welcome aboard to DU!

[KayF]

25. thanks!

[True Dough]

27. I agree with you

It's not the media's fault that Chump's staff is mostly made up of cartoon characters and charlatans.

[Sancho]

17. The tape recording and email were interesting...and Omarosa's interpretation is correct...

she was threatened and they tried to pay her off. No matter what you think of her, Kelly and the WH are exactly as described.

I hope she has other tapes.

[dalton99a]

19. It's hard to argue with what she recorded

[Mc Mike]

22. Those freaks can all bash each other forever, but can't fool me by agreeing with me.

I don't like Kelly, but he was snowed under by the sheer number of tRump mutants who were always storming the oval, trying to prod that orange goof into some more swinish mob nazi activity.

She knew what he was, all along, even when she said we'd all bow down to him.

He has always been a sleazy slimy law breaking racist mob nazi crook.

Now let them all say how bad all the other freaks suck.

[VMA131Marine]

28. Omarosa broke the law by recording in the Situation Room

It's a secure facility: no recording devices or PEDs allowed. She should be prosecuted for it I don't care what the tape revealed. In fact, people who have an active clearance have a responsibility not to listen to it.

[sunonmars]

29. this administration though,nothing seems to be illegal,so go for it,they are not respecting the law

why should anybody, they are setting precedents. Be ironic if there consistent ignorance of security that brings them down.

[UTUSN]

32. O.K., fine, so she might officially become a political prisoner, and down the path of "Lock her up"

the slope will be slicked for all others to be prosecuted for whatever ostensible crimes while mainly being political enemies.

[VMA131Marine]

33. It's an actual crime, there's nothing ostensible about it

just because what was recorded is convenient for everyone who opposes Trump. I don't expect she'll actually be charged and prosecuted because it would be hugely embarrassing for the WH, but people loses their jobs, get fined, and even go to jail for doing stuff like this.

[UTUSN]

34. I'm agreeing with you, not disputing this crime. Am talking about the slope to come for others,

in SHITLER's world, where he, the deceased Roy COHN, Roger STONE and the whole crew of slimeballs will be in charge (yes, I know COHN is dead) of trumping up criminal offenses as OSTENSIBLE PRETEXTS for going after their political enemies.

30. Great post...

...especially the preamble...

[UTUSN]

31. Gosh, *thank* you so much. If you've ever been flamed, you know!1

What mystifies me is that flamers seem to think it is their sacred obligation to be ugly for all to see. They could so easily just skip past whatever poster they will never approve of, but they just won't. The other thing is the horridness of attacking fellow DUers instead of aiming at wingnuts. Thanks, again, means a lot.

[ADX]

36. You're very welcome and yeah, I've been there, experienced that...

...and know exactly where you're coming from.

Sometimes people here can get so hooked into the "party" line that they miss the forest for the trees and in so doing, make "us" become our own worst enemies. DU should be a place where ideas and opinions are shared and exchanged for our common good; it should never be a de-facto echo-chamber.

Always speak your truth and don't worry about the haters.

[UTUSN]

35. It's getting *play*: STELTER played the KELLY clip on Reliable Sources
