“Lordy, I hope there are tapes.” Why yes, Mr. Comey, there are tapes.

Trump Twisting and Tweeting…

Priceless…

And the modern recorders are voice activated, and record whole days of conversations. She would not have to be present to operate it. Just leave it and retrieve it.

She doesn’t strike me as the type who scares easily. She would probably respond by releasing ever more damaging tapes. I assume and hope she has left the best for last.

Do you think Trump can pay her to stop? Do you think that she could flip again, and take enough money to kill the audiofiles?

I don’t think so. I think what she wants is fame and power. I’m sure there’s a number that would get her to fold, but I think it’s pretty unlikely he’d offer enough. Plus, Omarosa is incredibly vindictive. She’s as vindictive and petty as PP. At this point, I don’t even think it’s about money. It’s about payback. IF she manages to take down a presidency then there’s a lot more money, power, and fame in the long run than taking the cash and going away quietly.

She went everywhere, famously even when uninvited. She could have recordings of any conversation that happened while she had access to the White House.

Yes, and I’d like to add that “going away quietly” just isn’t in Omarosa’s DNA.

Great point. I mean, they did have to drag her to the Situation Room during a Christmas party in order to fire her. And they still had to stop her from trying to run up to the WH residence. She’s made a 15 year career of not going away quietly.

Unless one of the tapes is Lonesome Rhodes quality of Trump saying he thinks his supporters are a bunch or morons, it won’t matter. His supporters think it’s funny and refreshing that he has no scruples, so outside of Democrats and the tiny number of Republicans who place more value on ethics than winning at all costs, none of her tapes will have an effect.
