Welcome to Litsy!

Better than expected, I reluctantly read this one. 3.5 stars.
Something from another point of view.

I dont empathize with Omarosa but I believe her portrayal of DJT is accurate. It was such a stark contrast to Becoming. She has been a bit of a blind hypocrite, but ultimately, I am glad she has written such an honest book

"We went from Barack Obama, a scholar, an academic, to Donald Trump, who was just this side of functionally literate."

"You dont have to lynch someone, you dont have to burn a cross in someones yard these days to be a racist."

So when Clinton cheated, she was so upset she left the white house. When Trump started cheating she decides his "personal life was NOT my business". So hypocritical

Some of my coworkers are passing around the Trump administration books that I haven‘t had the mental will or energy to read yet. So I got in on it when someone finished this one.

Casual reminder that today is the last day to early vote in Tennessee 🗳 🗳 🗳 #memphis #teacherlife #votesaveamerica #pleasevote

Soooo.....I still don‘t like her. And there were several parts of this book that had me giving it the side eye. For one, the way she continuously commented on Clinton. And Secondly the way she was so blind to the truth of who Trump is. I left this book not feeling on bit of empathy towards her. #gladitwasfree #omarosa #nahgirl

Soooo....this chic (not the word I want to use) worked for a pre-Clinton Campaign PAC and believed that she would be on the actual campaign team. Well that didn‘t happen; so Omarosa was better - and it‘s shows in this part of the book. She is down right petty! 🤦🏾‍♀️

The Gene Simmons section of this chapter I‘m in....makes me want to throw up. #sexistbullshit

So I was annoyed about how she says she lost respect for Hillary Clinton for staying with Bill Clinton (I had no clue that Omarosa has worked for the Clinton admin.). Other than that I am sitting here thinking....she should have known better (when it came to Trump).How she didn‘t surprises me. She‘s sharp. Smart. And I could definitely respect her. But I can say I feel sorry for her. #nonfiction #politics

Regardless of your political beliefs, going into this book believing it might all not be true is the way to read it. While most of it is things anyone who watches TV already knows, it is interesting to hear the point of view from someone who was on the other side of it — on the inside. It was juicy and interesting and I didn‘t want to stop playing it!

This book is intense and so good. Omarosa said the way he allowed Gene Simmons to have his way with Ivanka and he watched as he groped her and said vulgar things during the Apprentice taping was disgusting. Donald was encouraging Gene's behavior with his daughter #unhinged #Omarosa #Trump #blacklitsy 😳

This was surprisingly readable. Do I trust Omarosa? Not particularly. Do I understand how she can justify her fifteen years in Trumpworld? No. But, much as Fire & Fury did, this book compiled Trump‘s “greatest hits” as a reminder that we must continue resisting and vote for change.

How can we concentrate on reading when Trump‘s cronies are going down? 🙌🏻

A surprisingly candid look at her life, her choices and her struggle to create diversity in a difficult atmosphere. Omarosa is a very thoughtful writer who looks at her own shortcomings and successes along with those around her with a sharp eye and great wit.

I can‘t resist books like this. Political tell all‘s complete with all the craziness that is today‘s political landscape. Tucking in with some wine and cheese to boot!!

I know some of you said you wouldn't read it but I can't put it down. This is a page turner. My face 😳 as I continue. Happy Sunday! #unhinged #blacklitsy #kindleoasis #omarosa

Memorable quote : If you're not at the table you're on the menu 🤯

I can't stand her but had to get it. I'm way to nosey not to read it. Let's get in to it😩

I have my issues with Omarosa, but wouldn‘t it be something if she took Supreme Cheeto down?
