The Trump n-word tape is real

Can we get verification from someone that isn't crazy?
 
Official Statement on Omarosa Manigault-Newman

My name is Lynne Patton and I am a senior official in the Trump Administration.

White House leadership, both past and present, can confirm that I was the closest confidante & friend to Ms. Manigault-Newman during her tenure at the White House, Transition and Campaign - texting and speaking multiple times per day.

To that end, Omarosa attempted to contact me just two days ago, but I refused to accept her call.

Like Ms. Manigault-Newman, I have also known and worked for both the President and his family for over a decade and am confident that they would collectively confirm that I know them far better than she.

To be clear, at no time did I participate in a conference call with Katrina Pierson advising me, Jason Miller and Omarosa Manigault-Newman that Frank Luntz had heard President Donald J. Trump use a derogatory racial term - a claim that Luntz himself has also denied.

What I can confirm is the following:

On December 12, 2017, at approximately 11:30PM (EST) – a date I now know to be the evening Omarosa was relieved of her official duties by General Kelly - I received a telephone call from her informing me that she had personally heard a second-hand recording of President Trump using the “N-word” in a derogatory fashion.

She proceeded to tell me the full name of the individual who played this second-hand tape for her, from whom the primary audio tape had originated, as well as the specific context of the President’s usage of this term and to whom the derogatory term was allegedly directed.

Omarosa also proceeded to inform me that she had officially submitted her resignation to General Kelly and that I should promptly do the same before the audio surfaced.

The next morning, I immediately notified senior communications officials and a Trump family member of the same, only to discover the true nature of her departure was termination.

Today, the individual who Omarosa confirmed to me as having played the second-hand audio recording to her last year confirmed that they have no tape, never had possession of a tape, never claimed to have possession of a tape and never played such a tape for Ms. Manigault-Newman.

Tonight, on the MSNBC program, Hardball, Omarosa revealed to the general public what she had told me last December: That former Apprentice producer, Bill Pruitt, was the original source of the “N-word” tape.

Bill Pruitt is a mutual friend.

I just spoke to Bill Pruitt tonight before releasing this statement.

He confirmed to me (before Hardball had even gone off the air) that he does NOT have an audio tape of President Trump using the “N-word” and has NEVER had an audio tape of President Trump using the “N-word.” Period.


Suffice it to say that the past few weeks have been wrought with disappointment, immense sadness, anger and outright disgust.

Based upon her conflicting accounts and the newfound information revealed in my statement, it should be abundantly clear to everyone that not only is her book a complete work of fiction, but that the existence of this elusive “N-word” tape is a figment of her imagination and merely a destructive tool of manipulation applied only when it best serves her interests.

Like countless other minorities and women, the President has given me the opportunity of a lifetime to rise up through the ranks of The Trump Organization and now proudly serve this country.

Therefore, unless directed otherwise, this will be my only statement on this baseless accusation and imaginary audio tape, as falsely claimed by a former friend.

My primary and sole focus remains the low-income and public housing residents of New York & New Jersey, as the President would expect it to be — and as the President has hired me to do.

Thank you. ���� #MAGA

Doesn’t matter if it exists.

Let’s say, hypothetically it did exist, which it probably doesn’t, here’s a play by play of exactly what would happen.

- tape is released, media completely ****s itself.

- Democrats condemn and republicans come out and all say “I’m shocked by the presidents words” and various “private conversation” excuses are slipped in here and there before they completely take over 3 days later as republicans tout the great economy and how low African American unemployment is under Trump.

- Something something about Hillary and Obama.

- Trump will do raging tweets about the tape, threaten to bomb Iran and probably something about Mueller.

- Sanders will claim a Marmot with an anti-fa pin threw a rock at her during a meal at Chuckie Cheese.

- it’s all forgotten about 3 days tops, and bottom line is he loses no support.

So there’s no point in anyone getting excited about this.

I do believe your crystal ball is in fine working order.

The TV show Vice is going to have a whole episode devoted to the hunt for the Trump tapes I believe on September 18th so let's see what they have to report for us

Well that is hopeful on your part. Blacks are still very sensitive about who does and who does not use that word and how. In Trump's case, hearing it leave his lips would send another voting demographic headed for exits off the Trump party boat, those few of them that are on it. You start to take out whole demographics like that and you are done politically. Trump has already shoved college educated women off the party boat and a good many women generally off the party boat. He only got elected on 24% of the Electorate in the first place.

THEN you add to that the utter freak show of candidates the GOP is putting up for the mid-terms and Trump is just spiraling down the drain. In fact, I think he knows it and he is going to make the most personal wealth out of this one term as he can get including running a bogus 2020 campaign. You think he is going to give that money back when he doesn't run?
 
Moderator's Warning:
Moved to appropriate location at this time
 
I'm still waiting for him to release those other tapes he said he has. It's been what? A year now?

Tom is full of BS about the tapes. Much like Trump was full of BS on his tapes on Comey. Love her or hate her, Miss O has put up her proof, and I for one hope there are lots more to come before the Mid terms. Miss O is playing Trump at his own game, but neither has any integrity, but one does have tapes:lamo
 
When the tapes are presented and are authenticated the tapes can be discussed. Till then it is all hype.

Looking back when I was younger I used a lot of words I don't use today. One of them was the "n" word. As I grew older I realized there was no need to use foul language or name calling. Personally, idk if Trump used the "n" word.
 
Does it matter, though?

Let's say the tape exists and becomes public: Is there one single Trump supporter on this forum who would decide not to vote for him based on it?
 

It probably is real, but it wouldn't change anything for his supporters. He was always a racist, and anybody who isn't a racist can see what an old bigot Trump is. If the tape gets released, and I hope it does, they will make excuses for why he said, deny the tape was real, etc.

This is laid out very well, but more complex, would be his supporters. I know racist Trump supporters, and most of them don't say that Trump is racist. They say Trump is right. Trump is telling the truth. Trump is "telling it like it is."

The N word is very bad though, so I am not sure if that would be enough to make them go... oh... yeah... he is racist. Maybe, maybe not.

Fox News kept touting that racist rancher on their network, and once his racism went so far, they dropped his air time. It made Fox uncomfortable at some point.

It would, however, impact some sit on the fence types, especially in the house and senate. It would be a big deal, if there is a tape, no doubt about it.
 
It wouldn't make a bit of difference. Some Trump supporters are racist. The rest think he is God incarnate.
 
If those tapes have not been released by now, then it can be said there are no tapes. This scenario has become silly.

Does using it make you racist? Lot of black racist out there.

Of course using a word does not a racist make.

Hillary and bill are no stranger to the use of slurs.
