WASHINGTON (AP) — The White House says Omarosa Manigault Newman — one of President Donald Trump’s most prominent African-American supporters — plans to leave the administration next month.
White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders says Manigault Newman’s resignation is effective Jan. 20, one year since Trump’s inauguration.
Manigault Newman’s decision comes at the start of what’s expected to be a round of departures heading into the new year.
The White House announced last week that deputy national security adviser Dina Powell will leave the administration early next year.
Manigault Newman is a former contestant on Trump’s reality TV show “The Apprentice.” She joined the administration as director of communications for the White House Office of Public Liaison, working on outreach to various constituency groups.
Is this the firing April Ryan tweeted about?
“Every critic, every detractor, will have to bow down to President Trump. It’s everyone who’s ever doubted Donald, who ever disagreed, who ever challenged him. It is the ultimate revenge to become the most powerful man in the universe.”
She is a total suck face. It’s hard to see how Trumpsky could let her go.
Geez, what are they going to do now? She was the brains of the operation.
Hard to imagine letting her go would make a big stir. She’s the kind of do-nothing employee you get when the boss insists on hiring the leeches who hang around pretending to be his friend.
There were brains in the operation?
