Racist US President Calls Former – and Only – Black Top White House Aide a ‘Dog’

President Donald Trump launched into a furtive tweet storm Tuesday morning, posting six tweets in under 45 minutes. The president labeled his former White House aide and 3-time “Apprentice” contestant a “dog.” It is a racist and misogynistic attack on Omarosa Manigault Newman, one that serves only to draw attention to her claims that he is a “racist” and has used the “n” word while on set of his former reality TV show.
“When you give a crazed, crying lowlife a break, and give her a job at the White House, I guess it just didn’t work out. Good work by General Kelly for quickly firing that dog!” Trump tweeted early Tuesday morning.
Except it’s false. Trump admitted he hired Omarosa, who, based on his description Monday, was not qualified for the job. He then admitted that he blocked her firing “because she only said GREAT things about me.”
Omarosa, according to reports during her one-year tenure in the Trump White House, was not a good employee, and yet Trump kept her on.
So his claim his chief of staff “quickly” fired her is false.
Some responses to Trump’s vile attack via Twitter:
Per the access Hollywood tape, Trump uses “dog” when he wants to use “bitch” but feels it would be inappropriate.

Dude. You’re willing to call your former top black female staffer a dog in front of the entire world.
I 100% believe that a tape of you using the n-word behind closed doors exists. #Racist #ReleaseTheTapes @MarkBurnettTV

Trump’s official position is this: he personally decided to hire Omarosa, a crazed, crying, lowlife dog who everyone in the White House hated, his chief of staff thought was a loser, but he kept employed at $180k a year in a senior position because she said nice things about him.

What happened to hiring the best people? You hired her. So if she is a “crazed, delusional, crying dog”, you are doing a very shitty job. Amazingly bad, worst ever, horrible.

Trump’s a sick disgusting man.I don’t care about Omarosa but she is not a dog. She is a woman YOU hired when it served your purpose.Then you threw her away. Now you try to demean her but the only person you demean is yourself and the office you are supposed to hold in high esteem
