I think Trump should bring back Gary Busey from Celebrity Apprentice and make him Secretary of State

It's not like this is a real government. This is just entertainment. Last week president Trump promoted a child molester for Senate and suggested another Senator was a whore. Stay tuned for more drama next week. Another cast member may be eliminated. Vote for your favorite.

I never liked her on "The Apprentice", but after some interviews I figured she had to be playing a bit.

Which kinda seemed true when she was on the stump for Trump because she was quick-witted and professional. But then this story makes me wonder. Maybe she can only contain her sanity for a few hours at a time?

... Manigault-Newman was fired and escorted out of the building on Tuesday night, sources told BuzzFeed News. April Ryan, who covers the White House and has feuded with Manigault-Newman, also reported Wednesday there was "drama" around the departure.
One White House official with knowledge of the situation described an ongoing situation where Manigault-Newman grew increasingly fed up with how the administration handled racially charged issues, adding that moving from crisis to crisis particularly drained the White House. Manigault-Newman has told friends in the past few months, the source said, that being the only black staffer in White House meetings was a source of stress.
"She struggled with being an African-American senior staffer, with all the racial incidents in the White House, and I think it was starting to weigh on her," the official said.
The source said Manigault-Newman wanted to leave the White House after Charlottesville, where Trump sympathized with the white supremacists who marched to preserve Confederate monuments, leading to the death of one counterprotester. Manigault-Newman went silent in the days and weeks after the rally, the source said. She did not respond to BuzzFeed News’ requests for comment at the time.
The source said the White House was also consumed by other racial issues such as its focus on NFL players protesting during the national anthem; the lack of transparency regarding the death of a black American soldier in Niger and the response to his widow and Rep. Frederica Wilson; and the UCLA men's basketball team arrests in China that Trump demanded praise for handling. More recently, Manigault-Newman had been disturbed by the administration's handling of Roy Moore, as Trump embraced the candidate amid accusations he sexually assaulted teenagers.
When the administration ended a program that allowed 59,000 Haitians to remain in the United States, she agonized over the decision "because she fought so hard to get the extension," said the source, who asked not to be named because they were not authorized to speak publicly. ...

Omarosa Tried to ‘Storm the Residence’ in Reality TV-Style Ouster
It was an ending fit for a reality star the lone Apprentice on the White House staff featuring her trying to ‘storm the residence’ of the president before she was stopped.

When Omarosa Manigault-Newman learned she was being ousted from her White House post on Tuesday, she decided to try to confront her boss, President Donald Trump, making a beeline for the White House residence to appeal directly to the one person who still remains her ally.

But it wasn’t to be. She was stopped before she could had the chance to actually barge into the residence, and by Wednesday morning, Omarosa’s resignation had officially been announced. Whether it was actually a resignation—or if she was in effect fired—is another question.

Multiple sources with knowledge of the incident recounted a “ruckus” on Tuesday night involving Omarosa, the reality TV villain turned the communications director of the White House’s Office of Public Liaison. One White House official said she had even tried to “storm the residence” after learning that she was being forced out less than a year into Trump’s White House tenure. She was ultimately thwarted by staff. Reports later emerged that she had to be escorted from the campus on Tuesday.

"She was very upset and said she wanted to speak to the president. According to sources, Gen. Kelly said the president was already informed and he signed off," Ryan said in her report.

"Sources say General Kelly did the firing and Omarosa is alleged to have acted very vulgar and cursed a lot and said she helped elect President Trump," Ryan also tweeted. "The word is General Kelly had it and got rid of her."

Ryan and Manigault are former friends but have a history of disputes while working at President Trump's White House.
