OK, now, about this Omawhatever person. I never watched Trump's TV ventures...

because I always found him revolting and have much better ways of wasting time, so I never got to see her in action.

Reports kept sneaking out about how she was the devil in disguise, but I never really cared about the details.

Now I sorta do care. Almost. She's quite the drama queen, and seems kinda manipulative.

I anyone available to give me quick rundown on what she did back then, and why Trump would want her around in the White House?

I sampled the (original?) Apprentice for one or two seasons to keep a little up with what was being buzzed about at the time. This was all before TWITLER started with his Birther stuff and before that White House Correspondents dinner where OBAMA roasted him that apparently goaded him to prove out his previous bluffs about getting into politics.

So, in the original show, TWITLER was set up as this unquestioned top boss, UNquestioned, untouchable, with one old man who was his eminence gris at his right hand, with Ivanka and Junior being these authorities who would inspect all the projects and contestants and deliver also UNquestioned judgments about what and who was good or bad. And the old man would be the ultimate seal of authority, after which TWITLER would supposedly process all the input and spew his Final Word on who was fired and who won.

It was like the early days of "voted-off-the-island" show, with all the contestants being revealed for their personalities, weaknesses, strengths, and capacities for deviousness.

This Omarosa person was the original hateful contestant - abrasive, hateful, brassy, bullying, whatever, the worst of the worst. Gotta say that it was cheap-thrill satisfying when she got fired. But then in a later season or whenever, it was surprising that she was brought back in a sort of consulting/authoritative role. Now it all makes sense, because she did whatever she did to kiss up to TWITLER and latch herself to his now known traits of loving to be kissed up to, besides that she is a mirror of HIM.

After the shock of TWITLER's escalator ride DOWN into the campaign, there were so many shocks of racism, attacks on veterans, Gold Star families, and the rest, it was still a little shock when this Omarosa was popped into ANY kind of role for a supposedly real life political campaign.

And as for always having found TWITLER to be repulsive, way back when I never dreamed he would be "president," I physically recoiled whenever I saw his shirts and ties for sale on the shelves.
