A week of bad headlines spawned by Omarosa Manigault Newman has once again called into question one of President Trump’s top campaign assertions: that he hires only the best people.
Trump was hit yet again by a former aide whose relationship with him proved purely transactional as Omarosa made the rounds promoting her scathing new book, Unhinged.
“When you give a crazed, crying lowlife a break, and give her a job at the White House, I guess it just didn’t work out,†Trump tweeted last week. “Good work by General Kelly for quickly firing that dog!â€
Dog-gate breathed new life into Omarosa’s flagging PR campaign for Unhinged, but Trump's tweet raises a more obvious question: If true, then what was she doing at the White House in the first place?
“The president hasn’t always been helped by his staffing choices,†admitted a former campaign aide. “He can be stubborn about people.†But his management experience was one of the main arguments he made for his candidacy in 2016.
There are several reasons Trump has had trouble delivering on this promise.
