If Trump officials’ worst fears are realized, we could be seeing Omarosa dropping fresh secret recordings of Administration staff from now until the 2020 presidential race.
That’s the suspicion among top Trump Administration official as Omarosa continues her blitzkrieg tour of launching scandalous audio bombs, intending to do as much damage possible to the President.
Omarosa’s latest recording has Laura Trump, the President’s daughter-in-law, offering Omarosa a sinecure job after getting fired from the White House. Now, a normal man, perhaps a slightly cynical one, would find such an offer to be a good deal, especially at a price tag of $15,000 a month. Not Omarosa.
She forwent the offer in exchange for writing a tell-all memoir and is likely counting on making bank from proceeds of the book. (RELATED: Omarosa Leaks Audio of Lara Trump Offering Her Campaign Job.) There’s no telling what Omarosa plans to release in the future, and how damning it will be.
However, we do have confirmation that there are no huge bombshells awaiting the Trump family in whatever comes out next. (RELATED: Politico Confirms ‘No Bombshells’ In Omarosa Recordings.) Even so, that is no comfort for Administration officials who worry they’ll be caught on the next leak. In fact, we now have a number to put on the tapes Omarosa is suspected to have.
This comes via the New York Times:
The tapes of Ms. Manigault Newman’s private conversations with Mr. Trump and other officials connected to him have rattled the White House in a way that few things other than the special counsel investigation into possible campaign collusion with Russia have. Mr. Trump’s aides have been concerned that they will make appearances on other tapes, of which Ms. Manigault Newman is believed to have as many as 200.

That’s a lot of tapes! Still, if Omarosa was planning on causing a splash for her book, one would think she would have dropped her biggest tape already. Or, perhaps, she’s saving the big one for a later date.
All we know is that the Trump White House is on edge. We’ll just have to wait and see if Omarosa, the consummate reality TV villain, actually has what it takes to sink a presidential administration.
