More than who said what, or is she telling the truth, or can you prove it with tapes, the enormous anger and resentment and even disappointment she expresses, not so much with what Trump specifically did or said, but with the whole atmosphere and personality and just pure evil of the man is what comes across so powerfully in this interview. A lot of people were prone to dismiss her, like Todd here and in the NPR interview, dismiss her as the "disgruntled ex-employee" as the WH called her, but she's dead serious and surprisingly straight-forward and mad. Her only frustration seems to be how to convince everyone she's right. It's not just about trying to sell a book. She's on a crusade and she's not going away.

DT created her, first on the Apprentice and then in the WH. Remember that poem that he liked to recite at his rallies, "The Snake"? He used it to disparage immigrants/refugees. I think it's a perfect metaphor for the types of people he hires, including Omarosa.
