Omarosa has already contradicted a major claim in her own book.
“Hearing it changed everything for me,” former White House aide Omarosa Manigault Newman told NPR on Friday.
Manigault Newman was referring to what she calls the “N-word tape” — a long-rumored but never surfaced tape of Donald Trump on the set of The Apprenticeallegedly using the racial slur. 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 by Martin about the discrepancy during 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.
The problem is that in Omarosa’s book she claims to have never heard the alleged tape.
Incredibly, this person – who shall remain nameless – picked up the phone.
We spoke.
On this phone conversation, I was told exactly what Donald Trump said – yes, the N-word and others in a classic Trump-goes-nuclear rant – and when he’d said them.
During production he was miked, and there is definitely an audio track.
For over a year I’d been so afraid of hearing the specifics from someone who’d been in the room. Hearing the truth freed me from that fear. And only now that it’s gone, do I realize just how heavy it’s been.
This once again destroys the credibility of this book. The fact that she can’t even remember the biggest falsehood she told in it when pressed shows how many falsehoods are likely in this book.
As I predicted the claims made in this book are only things that fit in with the narratives pushed by the Mainstream Media as a way to sell books.
