MEDIA/TRUMP AS PRESIDENT/TRUMP PEOPLE: “U.S. President Donald Trump on Tuesday [8-14-18] called former White House aide Omarosa Manigault Newman a ‘dog,’ and his campaign took legal action against her as the two former reality TV stars escalated their public feud. The intensifying spat came as Manigault Newman, a former contestant on Trump’s reality show ‘The Apprentice,’ publicly released more recordings from her time in his orbit as she promoted her tell-all book, ‘Unhinged,’ which describes her year at the White House. She was fired last December…In her book, Manigault Newman accuses Trump of making derogatory statements about African-Americans, Filipinos and other minorities, as well as exhibiting ‘forgetfulness and frustration’…White House spokeswoman Sarah Sanders, asked if she was surprised by Manigault Newman’s animus toward the president, told reporters she was disappointed by what she called the former aide’s self-serving and false claims.”
