Omaorosa's Book Tour Vs. 40 more Murdered Yemeni Children

[Pam]

the Saudi strike occurred with logistical support of the U.S. military and that it is just one of hundreds of horrific attacks that the arch-reactionary and absolutist Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, and other oil-rich nations in a Saudi-Emirati-led coalition have made on Yemeni civilians with U.S. weapons, logistical assistance, and money.

I'm not sure of your point. While extremely sad, it isn't particularly newsworthy that children are dying through violent means in the Middle East; has been happening with regularity for decades now.

In contrast, a fired White House insider revealing extensive secrets to the public, including tapes confirming the vile racism, idiocy and lawbreaking contained within, is quite newsworthy.

And it isn't like the press is incapable of reporting two things at once. The latter is just more newsworthy; man bites dog is more newsworthy than dog bites man.

Eh, in regards to the book tour, et al, I think sales could be bit cool.
Some may read Omarosa as an opportunist who was fine with Trump as it served her.

The news coverage alone may suffice over a fireside read of the book!

[Zacha341]

Um, yeah. The press was fairly quiet when the Yazidi girls were being raped, and persecution of Christians in parts of Africa.

I'm not sure of your point. While extremely sad, it isn't particularly newsworthy that children are dying through violent means in the Middle East; has been happening with regularity for decades now.

Unlike Omaroso, dogs can usually be trusted.Trump should have known better than to hire Omaroso. She had already been fired by the Clinton administration. By 'vile racism', you mean calling blacks something like "super predators" like Hillary did?

Omaroso Also made quite a few enemies in the White House, where she was banished from four jobs in two years with the Clinton administration. At her last one, “she was asked to leave as quickly as possible, she was so disruptive,” said Cheryl Shavers, the former Under Secretary for Technology at the Commerce Department, where Omarosa worked several weeks in 2000. “One woman wanted to slug her.”

Maybe the Omarosa flap is an attempt to counter recent improvements in Trump's standing with black Americans. Discouraging illegal non-citizens from taking jobs and putting tariffs on foreign products have contributed to record black employment. Maybe rising approval ratings among black Americans made it necessary to play the Omarosa card. I don't know what the actual black approval rating is because the polls are over the place. Trump received 8% of the black vote in 2016.
Pew Research has Trump at 14% approval among black Americans.
The NAACP's poll 21% approval among black Americans.
Rasmussen [[Aug. 15) poll 36% approval rating among black Americans.

But let's get back to killing 40 children in Yemen. Using Democratic identity politics lingo, Arabs are brown people. If so, then the 40 dead children that Trump indirectly had something to do with might be better compared with the hundreds of thousands of dead Arabs and millions of Arab refugees resulting from Obama/Kerry/Hillary policies than Omarosa's betrayal.

Well, there's always lying, whataboutism and parroting Kremlin propanganda.

1. Omarosa was never "fired by the Clinton administration". You're lying. She never worked for the Clinton administration.

2. Clinton never called AAs "superpredators". That's a lie. In contrast, Trump has a 40 year history of vile racism towards AAs.

3. If Omarosa is scum, as you claim, and Trump hired her, and he claims to "only hire the best", then what does it say about Trump? Obviously it would indicate he's an idiot if he knowingly hires trash. Also, everything Omarosa has claimed has been, to this point, confirmed by her released tapes.

Need to try harder with the Kremlin propaganda. Also, newsflash: it's 2018. Trying to desperately deflect by bringing up Presidential administrations from 30 years ago is beyond pathetic. Maybe try "but whatabout Napoleon/Genghis Khan/Julius Caesar" next.

I guess you didn't bother to read it. The point is, the US military is involved in Yemen and it gets next to no news coverage.

[Bham1982]

Why do you think this should get more news coverage? Most informed people are well aware the U.S. is involved in Yemen, which is a bloodbath.

And why do you think this should mean that the White House should not receive news coverage, as if the news is incapable of reporting two things at once.

Elect a clown, expect a circus. Trash hiring trash.

[Zacha341]

Yeah what a predictable mess.

Who'da thought it would come out this way?

Lol have you actually heard the alleged tapes yet ?

That would make you the only person in the world that has and you have based your post in what exactly?

Just another one trying to capitalize on Trumps skirts because they are nothing otherwise.

1. I linked the claim that Omarosa worked for the Clinton administration and was fired. It's blue and italicized. Click on it. Have your argument with it.

2. On whether Hillary called "AAs "superpredators", Politifact says that claim is "mostly true". Have your argument with that source too.

3. I didn't use the word "scum" although you might want to call the thought police on me now that you suggested it. Hiring her suggests that Trump was too optimistic. Omarosa contradicted her book, by the way, which makes your point about "everything she claimed" wrong too.

Sorry, but you struck out. You will have to return to the dugout now. Perhaps you can work on your neo-McCarthyite narrative a little although not everyone wants to return to a cold war. As far as I'm concerned, Trump has already gone too far with sanctions to appeal to neo-McCarthyites and neo-cons. I agree with Pam to the extent that Trump should reduce mid-east involvements in Yemen, Iraq, Afghanistan, and especially Syria. Europe is grown up now. It's more in Europe's back yard and problem.

[Bham1982]

Yes. A number of tapes have been released, and confirm her claims, to this point.

You're completely lost. Seriously, turn off the Infowars, and return to normalcy. The media isn't the "enemy", and you've been completely duped.

[Bham1982]

1. I linked the claim that Omarosa worked for the Clinton administration and was fired. It's blue and italicized. Click on it. Have your argument with it.

This is a lie, and you did no such thing. Omarosa worked under Al Gore, who, last I checked, isn't Bill or Hillary. Try again with your desperate, flailing whataboutism. Maybe you can dig up something Alexander the Great once said in order to distract?

2. On whether Hillary called "AAs "superpredators", Politifact says that claim is "mostly true". Have your argument with that source too.

This is also a lie. The source does no such thing. Polifact clearly states that she was not specifically refer to AA's but rather youth. They rate the claim "mostly true" because Priebus made a separate claim than your claim - that it can reasonably inferred that criminal youth include AAs.

Per Polifact "The full context of this incident does link children and superpredators, but nowhere in the speech does she directly label African-American youth this way."

3. I didn't use the word "scum" although you might want to call the thought police on me now that you suggested it. Hiring her suggests that Trump was too optimistic. Omarosa contradicted her book, by the way, which makes your point about "everything she claimed" wrong too.

Another lie. Nothing Omarosa has publicly claimed has been contradicted by any released tapes.

Also, just have to laugh at the extreme idiocy of a Trump cultist being concerned with truth-telling while blindly worshipping the most lying public figure in history per Polifact. Sad!

I must have a long learning curve, I keep insisting on getting myself involved with these things. Here's a story from NPR about not airing an interview with Ms. Manigault because of her conflicting story about the alleged tape she heard. For all I know though, NPR might be a Russian radio station. Looks like another Stormy Thursday.

^^^ Sounds like alot of mingling and mangling as the 'three stooges' used to say as this goes forth.

Just happy being not obligated towards to making it work in order to justify Trump, or her for that matter!

No, the media isn't doing a good job covering Yemen.

https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2018-...es-war-yemen-0

in the time period of July 3, 2017, to July 3, 2018, MSNBC dedicated zero segments to the US’s war in Yemen, but 455 segments to Stormy Daniels.

You provided a link about where she was offer a job,you still have not provided the tapes or actual proof of your accusations that you posted.

Please provide the links to the released tapes that back up your claims of racist comments etc that you posted.

You do have them correct? Or are you just spreading fake information then classifying others according to what you believed that they get thier news from.

There is a difference in creating your own news verses fact based news,and when you go to sleep tonight you can be rest assured Trump will still be your president.

The day she started her book stunt 5 things were signed into law by the president,I would be willing to bet 95% do not have a clue as to what they were and how they effected them.

You really are scrapping the bottom of the barrel of desperation when you look at the examples of who you pin your hopes on that will topple the current president,porn stars and wash outs.

Like Pam refers to,the rest of the world could be swapping nukes but it would be a small price to pay to get rid of somebody that you are not happy with,kinda sad really.

So, in your mind, Gore wasn't part of the Clinton administration and AA Youth aren't really African Americans. Um...ok.

Our ruling
Priebus said Hillary Clinton is "the the one that labeled African-American youth as superpredators."
Clinton — in the midst of championing her husband’s 1994 crime legislation — did use the term "superpredator" when referring to "gangs of kids." She did not specifically label superpredators as African-American, but the context of her speech and her subsequent apology decades later suggests it was a reasonable inference.
Priebus’ claim is accurate -POLITIFACT

You're obviously completely lost here.

The issue isn't whether or not Omarosa is an honest person [[she's probably dishonest trash, like Trump, which is likely why he hired her), the issue is that her current claims have all been corroborated by the released tapes.

That doesn't mean her book is honest, her word is honest or that she can be trusted, but it does mean her current claims re. Trump are almost certainly correct.

Her claims were as follows:

1. Trump tried to buy off her silence after her firing [[since confirmed, as she released a tape of Donny Trump's wife offering her the exact same salary as in the WH for a nonexistent "job").

2. Trump repeatedly called blacks "n-----s" and Hispanics "s----s" during the Apprentice and tried to silence anyone who knew about it [[since confirmed, as she release a tape of Trump advisors telling everyone to shut up about what Trump said during the Apprentice).

3. Trump was unaware of her firing and completely in the dark about anything happening the WH [[since confirmed, as she released a tape where he's blubbering about why Omarosa was fired and why he didn't know).

4. Trump forced WH employees to sign nondisclosure agreements, which is against the law [[since confirmed, she has released her agreement).

So if you want to carry on about Omarosa being a scummy POS, you have my agreement. But her current claims are correct, she's a protege of the idiot-in-chief, and there's no honor among the thieves and gangsters in the WH.

[Bham1982]

So, in your mind, Gore wasn't part of the Clinton administration and AA Youth aren't really African Americans. Um...ok.

No, that's your desperate whataboutism. You claimed she worked for the Clintons [[lie) and you claimed that Hillary slurred African Americans [[lie).

You cultists are so deep into bizarre nonlogic you have no idea what you're even saying.

Your wacky claims, if they were true, would mean that Trump is as awful as Hillary Clinton, who you think belongs in federal prison. Why would you support anyone in the Oval Office who belongs in federal prison?

Provide the link that backs up # 2 ,bet you cannot,and yet you stand firm on accusations as facts.

Provide the link where it was illegal for the president to request a NDA?

You write that the president personally tried to buy off her silence,when it was his daughter who is her friend and if you think he is unaware of what is going in the whitehouse then I have a non Canadian funded bridge for sale,you interested?
