The Real Reason Omarosa Is Leaving the White House
by EG
She might have been good at back-stabbing her way through reality-TV challenges on The Apprentice, but when it came to being a useful part of the Executive Branch of government, Omarosa Manigault's skill set seems to have come up short. After a series of gaffes and job transfers, Omarosa will be leaving the White house to "pursue opportunities," although the main opportunity she's probably pursuing is the opportunity to be the latest White House staffer fired by Donald Trump.

Omarosa Manigault is leaving the White House. After joining Donald Trump’s staff as part of his transition team in 2016, the White House announced on Wednesday, December 13, that the former Apprentice contestant will be departing in early 2018.
“Omarosa Manigault Newman resigned yesterday to pursue other opportunities,” Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders said in a statement. “Her departure will not be effective until January 20, 2018. We wish her the best in future endeavors and are grateful for her service.”
Manigault, 43, served as the assistant to the president and director of communications for the Office of Public Liaison for a year.
Her responsibilities included interacting with African-American and women’s groups, as well working on outreach to historically black colleges and universities.
The Surreal Life star was a big supporter of Trump during the 2016 presidential campaign. In July 2016, she announced during an interview with MSNBC that Trump had named her as the Director of African-American Outreach for the campaign. Following the election, the administration announced Manigault as one of the nine members of the real estate mogul’s transition team.
“[His critics] will have to bow down to President Trump,” she said during a Frontline special in September 2016. “It’s everyone who’s ever doubted Donald, whoever disagreed, whoever challenged him. It is the ultimate revenge to become the most powerful man in the universe.”
