Omarosa Manigault Newman, the former reality show star who went to work in the White House and then went back to reality television after being fired, said on "Celebrity Big Brother" on Thursday that she wouldn't vote for President Trump again "in a million years, never." Newman said she found it hard to separate her long-time loyalty for Mr. Trump when she worked in the White House.
"If we become friends, you'll see how loyal I am, like maybe to a fault," Newman said. Alluding to Mr. Trump, she added "it's just been so incredibly hard to shoulder what I shouldered for those two years because I was so loyal to a person. And I didn't realize that by being loyal to him, it was going mean I was going to lose 100 other friends."
Newman compared her relationship with Mr. Trump with fellow "Celebrity Big Brother" contestent Keshia Knight Pulliam's relationship with Bill Cosby. Starting at age 5, Pulliam starred as the youngest Huxtable child on "The Cosby Show." Pulliam went to court on the first day of Cosby's sexual assault trial to support him.
(Snip)
Newman said working in the White House was "100 percent" worse than being on a reality show because "this wasn't a game show."
"I made choices, I just have to live with them," she said tearfully.
Newman said chose to work at the White House because she saw it as a "call of duty."
"I felt like I was serving my country, not serving him," Newman said. "I was haunted by tweets every single day, like what is he going to do?"

"It's not my circus, not my monkeys – I'd like to say not my problem, but it's bad," Newman said. She said it's "not going to be okay ... it's so bad." When asked if she would vote for Mr. Trump again, Newman said "god no. Never. Not in a million years, never."
I saw the video of it - it was replete with her crying and acting as though the world was about to end. She didn't have a real problem with Trump or she wouldn't have gone ballistic and tripped the alarm trying to get into the White House residence to get to keep her job. She's angry she got fired.
Omarosa was not fireable. She was someone who gave up a lot to support Trump, and she (admittedly) lost a lot of friends to do so. She's also very controversial, and based on her appearances on The Apprentice and accounts from inside the White House (detailed in this article as to her firing - Reince wanted her gone and Kelly ended up firing her), she was a controversial figure there.
She is someone who is known to do what she can to survive, and being fired in the way she was, has made her assess the situation. She is angry at Trump for firing her and has decided she wants to regain acceptance inside the left, media, and black community as well because many in the black community do not like Trump. Therefore, she has turned on Trump. She will bash him the whole season of Big Brother, and she intends to write a tell all. She's throwing Trump under the bus and getting revenge.
This was to be expected. She was NOT fireable. She had too much to lose by being fired, and she doesn't take it lying down. Trump should have considered this prior to hiring her or firing her.
Just expect her book wherein she trashes Trump. The media will love her as she goes on her redemption tour. Although, I will say that the left didn't take her seriously on Big Brother. Most were mocking her on Twitter. They said she was acting. That said, they'll love the book. Guaranteed.
Expedient...
She’s an idiot. Trump has never exhibited loyalty in his life.
She’s a born and bred bitch
Cashing in and wanting some black love and acceptance
I would vote for Trump again. Do we get points for that? ? ?
Allow me to translate.
"When I supported Trump, I was kicked out of the black race. Now I am trying to be reinstated by being disloyal to the man who I am 100 percent loyal to. Also, I want to win Big Brother so I have to say what it will take to not alienate all you Hollywood Trump hating liberals so I don't get voted out. I am a person of very low character."
She is playing a game so, theoretically, she may see distancing herself as a way to get her further in the game. Big Brother is all about lying, deal cutting, alliances, etc. It could be she comes out of the house and says it was all an act because a friend of Trump would likely get eliminated right away. We shall see.
>> that by being loyal to him, it was going mean I was going to lose 100 other friends.
Priorities.
I’m sure the President is just crushed about this.
Whatever, Nick.
She made a bad choice.
15 minutes almost up.
And she recently married a democrat.
One real friend or 100 faux friends. You made the wrong choice!!
Her and Sessions have a lot in common.
Look for him on Big Brother soon too.
Wha, wha. WHAT?
That's a mighty bold statement, goodman.
SeeBS News looks like tawdry tabloid Nat’l Enq. journ-olism these days.
When will SeeBS air Celebrity Big Brother starring Hillary Clinton, James Comey, Peter Strzok, Lisa Page, Loretta Lynch, and Robert Muller?
Doubtful as she said she was writing a tell all about things that disturbed her in the White House.
