Who is this Trump supporter Omarosa Manigault on MSNBC?

Says she worked in the WH for CLinton. First she acts like she is offended how issues are not being discussed. Then when MSNBC anchor brings up Trumps lack of any coherence on issues, she pivots to excuse his cray cray as standard politics. AMAZZZZINNNGGG.

Career[edit]
Omarosa worked in the office of then-Vice President Al Gore during the Clinton Administration as a scheduling correspondent.[19] Omarosa has since falsely inflated her role in interviews to have the title Deputy Associate Director of Presidential Personnel.[19] According to a People magazine article, she was transferred due to disruptive behavior.[19]

Omarosa's Long History of Being Fired
http://www.people.com/people/article/0,,628071,00.html


Donald Trump wasn't the first person to fire Omarosa Manigault-Stallworth, the combative "Apprentice" contestant who makes a heralded return to the NBC reality show on Thursday, the next-to-last episode of the ratings hit.

According to the new issue of PEOPLE, the former political appointee -- who spoke glowingly of her White House days -- was banished from four jobs in two years with the Clinton administration.

At her last one, "she was asked to leave as quickly as possible, she was so disruptive," says Cheryl Shavers, the former Under Secretary for Technology at the Commerce Department, where Omarosa worked several weeks in 2000. "One woman wanted to slug her."

Manigault-Stallworth, 30, was also bounced from a previous position at Commerce, says another former administration official, "because she couldn't get along with people."

At her first White House gig, answering invitations received by Vice President Al Gore, "she didn't do her job, and it got everybody in trouble," says a former Gore staffer.

During the Q&A with the audience at a March 19 Washington, D.C., panel discussion on "Wearing the Pants: A Woman's Experience in a Man's World," PEOPLE asked Manigault-Stallworth about the challenges she's faced as a woman in her own career.

"I have done logistics and advance and event planning for the White House under the Gore staff. ... At 23, I got appointed to the White House. That was not a place to learn how to be a young professional. That's a very difficult environment, because they don't believe in training. They just kind of throw you in the fire," Omarosa told the audience.

But Omarosa did not do any logistics or advance work for the Vice President, the former Gore staffer, who asked to remain anonymous, tells PEOPLE. "Her exact title was scheduling correspondent. Her job was to respond to invitations," says the former staffer.

Omarosa was transferred to the White House personnel office, which later sent her to Commerce.

When asked about her employment history, the former Apprentice at first told PEOPLE, "I left when I got married," but later said she left "to go out on the campaign for Al Gore."

Manigault-Stallworth, who claims she's inundated with new job offers, said recently, "I'm a moving target. As soon as they think they've figured Omarosa out, I've already moved on to a whole different industry."

early on. (I know...shame on me ). I remember her because she was very difficult to deal with. I don't remember her saying anything about the WH, but maybe I forgot... but I doubt it

I tuned in just because someone told me her behavior was off the charts. She's like the bedazzle contestant, Tana Goertz, who was hired by Trump to do advance work in Iowa. Tana is all about self-promotion and lies on her website as much as Trump does.
