Things have been a bit heated between Donald Trump aide Omarosa Manigault Newman and morning anchor Robin Roberts on the public front lately, and the two have not been the least bit shy about expressing their feelings about each other.
It all seemed to start with Roberts making Omarosa feel entirely unwelcome during her visit on Good Morning America, all without using too many words.
Roberts acted visibly condescendingly towards the show’s guest and even dismissed her with a “Bye, Felicia” line without glancing her way.
It is clear that Omarosa has no intention of holding back though, as she quickly responded to the incident by calling Roberts “petty,” and stating that this was actually a “black woman civil war.”
Omarosa was mentioned in some controversial contexts recently after it was reported that she had to be escorted from the White House by force.
The alleged incident generated a lot of comments, but Omarosa herself denied that anything like that had taken place.
In fact, it seems like her relationship with Trump is still warm after her departure from her position, as the president sent her off with a positive-sounding tweet.
Of course, this is no guarantee for anything, and it is possible that any positive emotions between the two right now are just for show.
The central question on many people’s minds at the moment is whether Omarosa is going to come forward about the incidents in the White House that made her so uncomfortable, but so far, she has been keeping quiet on that and does not seem to want to share any details.
However, some commenters say that she is probably just fishing for a good book deal or paid interviews.
Roberts was undoubtedly just giving a voice to those critics with her viral reaction and now the war is on with the former reality TV star.
