Omarosa has stash to back up tell-all book about Trump

-

It’s not just audiotapes.

Omarosa Manigault Newman has a stash of video, emails, text messages and other documentat­ion supporting the claims in her tell-all book about her time in the Trump White House. That’s from a person with direct knowledge of the records.

Manigault Newman has made clear that she plans to continue selectivel­y releasing the pieces of evidence if President Donald Trump and his associates continue to attack her credibilit­y and challenge the claims in her book, Unhinged. She’s already released audio recordings of conversati­ons, and video clips, texts or email could follow. “I will not be silenced. I will not be intimidate­d. I’m not going to be bullied by Donald Trump,” the former Trump aide said this week as she seemed to dismiss a threat from Trump’s campaign.

She spoke to AP hours after Trump’s campaign announced it was filing an arbitratio­n action against her alleging she’d violated a signed agreement with the campaign that prohibits her from disclosing confidenti­al informatio­n.

She claims Trump officials offered her a job on the campaign as a way of silencing her, after she was fired from the White House. She’s accused Trump of being racist and suffering from a mental decline.

Trump has lashed out at Manigault Newman, calling her a “lowlife”, “wacky and deranged” and a “dog”.
