Omarosa brought Ericka up on charges

[Pixie_Dust]

I noticed the comments but didn't know what they referred to. Thanks for the 411.

I do not believe Omarosa cost Kwame the job, because I always thought he was weak. The fact that he can't adapt his management style to manage different personalities, and/or that he couldn't "think outside the box" and fire her (did you catch his unbelievably lame excuses about that? Made him look lazy as well as stupid) are just the most recent examples of his flaws.

Bill was my pick from the beginning, and I'm glad they chose the right guy

I was rooting for Bill as well. He has raw ambition. We did not see that from Kwame. Just the fact that he selected Omarosa to be on his team was a guarantee that he was headed for trouble. Especially with Heidi in the mix as well. Let's face it -- that foursome just about lost every task they were given during the previous episodes. Their skills weren't going to change overnight just because it was the "finale". I personally think the whole thing was orchestated from beginning to end as I cannot believe Omarosa would be stupid enough to lie the way she did with all the cameras rolling.

My earlier post was removed because I said half of a bad word I posted. Sorry guys, I did not mean to offend anyone if I did!

Kim, that is ok. You are forgiven. We all are a little "worked" up over her. I hope she doesn't comeback for season 2. I almost feel that I wouldn't watch it anymore because I just can't take her anymore.

 

[Kimickey]

Thanks guys

Omarosa just makes my blood boil. I think she totally ruined it for Kwame. While watching her lie to him, I was thinking, why dosen't Kwame just fire her. He should have fired her, as the Donald said last night.

Kimickey,
Re. Kwame, you should read my thoughts in my previous reply.

Another reason I did not like Kwame was the dishonesty, as shown last night in the Planet Hollywood recap. Bill was very polite about it, but really, Bill was the most morally upstanding of the bunch. Troy and Kwame did more than just "approach shades of gray" in some of their dealings. If I were hiring, I would want the person who not only would do the best job overall but also would reflect best on the company.

Who do you think orchestrated what whole thing? Omarosa does seem pretty stupid/oblivious from what I saw.

 

[Kimickey]

Kwame said it right last night. Omarosa is an airhead. I don't think it was orchestrated. I just think she is a person who needs a lot of attention from others to make herself feel good. Lying to and on Kwame was one of her ways to get another 15 minutes of fame. Did anyone notice how she was prancing around in Jessica Simpson's room? It was for show on her part. Just more juice to get more air time.

At first, I thought that maybe Omarosa was a "mole" when she came back for the final challenge. I couldn't believe that she just outright LIED on camera like that...doesn't she realize that it makes her look worse??

RE: Oprah defending Omarosa:

Omarosa made a remark about how black women get a hard time, and Oprah said something like "I hear ya, girl!" I thought that was totally wrong of Oprah to say that, since the bad opinions of Omarosa came from the way she ACTS, not because of her skin color. I would dislike her if she was white, brown, whatever. Omarosa was using racism as an excuse as to why people do not like her, and Oprah should not have egged that kind of behaviior on with her comment.

I saw the interviews of Bill, Trump and Kwame by Katie Couric this morning.

Trump made it crystal clear that Kwame's mistake was in not firing Omarosa. I wasn't certain from watching it last night that Kwame knew that she had lied while it was happening, but Trump made it known that he did. Kwame acknowledged that.

When Kwame was asked not only why did he select her, but that he chose her before choosing other's for his team, he said he did so because she has a "fragile psyche" and felt that it would have been a problem if she had been picked last.

One thing that was mentioned about Bill and Kwame was that they seemed to get along well with all of with the others.

I liked both candidates, but bottom line, Kwame made a bad decision and that was a big part of the show from start to finish.

I hate watching her on television. Omorosa makes black women (including myself) look bad!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Kimicky, for you to say something like this is utterly rediculous!!! Please tell me how does Omorosa make black women look bad. Does Pamela Anderson and Courtney Love make all white women look bad? No!!!
YOU might equate yourself to Omarosa, but I sure as hell don't. Omorosa actions define Omorosa. They do not define me as a black woman nor any other black woman for that fact.

Omorosa made herself look bad plain and simple.

 

[Robinrs]

I have to agree with Pongo, Kim.

Omarosa is Omarosa, you are YOU. I appreciate that she used whatever she did to make herself memorable, though. The Villain is always remembered, even if negatively.

I think Omarosa knew what ticked off people and she used it over and over and was VERY successful at it. Just look at the reaction on this board alone.

BTW, the anger and the hate that people are feeling for her causes her 15 mins to be longer and her dollar signs to flourish. She knows that and TRUMP knows that.

I didn't see the Oprah show but Omarosa was on the Tom Joyner morning show saying the same kind of things and I must admit, I reacted like Oprah did! She knows how to work US, too. She went on and on about things we could relate to and just like she worked everyone else to the negative, she worked us to support her. She's like a demon!

Another thing I thought was that she has to make all of her money NOW because who in their right mind will hire her now? I sure hope she makes enough to survive off of!

I'm not 100% sure where Oprah stands on the Omarasa situation and she had her on prior to the airing of the fnal shows. On thing I didn't like was when Oprah set up a "discussion" between Omarosa and Ereka, she had Omarosa on stage next to her and Ereka in the audience trying to speak to the mike. It gave Omarosa a position of power that she used to "dismiss" whatever Ereka had to say. She was speaking "peer to peer' with Oprah and Oprah made no attempt to even the playing field or to call Omarosa on any of her comments.

 

[Tinkbell]

I thought the same thing too , Pam. Oprah was wrong to just have Erika sitting in the audience while Omarosa was up on stage like a celebrity. I'm sure Trump will use her again in some way because, as much as people don't like her, she was one of the more memorable aspects of that show.

I don't know if Kwami realized he could fire Omarosa. Also, the only comment I heard Erica make was on a bus (I think), Omarosa said something about someone and Erica said "now that's the pot calling the kettle black" and Omarosa claimed it was a racial remark. Erica got upset and said that's not a racial remark and wasn't intended to be one. Erica was on the Howard Stern show (DH listens) and apparently they discussed the whole Oprah episode and how Erica was not on stage. I'm not surprised as I'm not a fan of Oprahs.
