Trump responds to alleged N-word tape by calling Omarosa a 'dog'

AARON RUPAR 5 hours ago

Omarosa Manigault-Newman released on Tuesday morning a secret recording of what she claims is an October 2016 call in which top Trump campaign aides discussed a tape of Donald Trump using the N-word.

CBS This Morning, which noted that it hadn’t independently verified the tape, obtained and played the recording on Tuesday. On it, then-campaign spokeswoman Katrina Pierson can be heard saying, “I am trying to find out at least what context it was used in to help us maybe try to figure out a way to spin it.”

“He said it,” Pierson adds. “He is embarrassed.”

Shortly after CBS played Omarosa’s tape, Trump lashed out at her on Twitter, calling her a “dog” and a “crazed, lying lowlife.”

You obviously save the best one, the most damning piece of evidence, until last.
