Nobody is quite sure about whether or not Trump has a pee tape somewhere out there, but given how dependent some of Donald’s business interests are on Russian loans, Putin doesn’t need one.
How about a tape using an ethnic slur, then?
I’m not even sure Trump’s loyal supporter cult base would care if tape emerged of the president dropping the n-word – they certainly didn’t care about his proclamations of sexual abuse, grabbing women by the pussy without their consent – but we might one day find out.
Former White House advisor, and The Apprentice contestant, Omarosa Manigault Newman says she knows such audio exists.
The Guardian reports:
The future US president was caught on mic uttering the taboo racial slur “multiple times” during the making of his reality TV show The Apprentice and there is a tape to prove it, according to Manigault Newman, citing three unnamed sources.
Trump has been haunted from around the time of his election in 2016 by allegations that outtakes from the reality TV show exist in which he is heard saying the N-word and using other offensive language.
In her book, Unhinged, a copy of which was obtained by the Guardian ahead of its publication next week, the former Apprentice participant insists that the reports are true, although she does not say she heard him use the word herself.
She also claims that she personally witnessed Trump use racial epithets about the White House counselor Kellyanne Conway’s husband George Conway, who is half Filipino. “Would you look at this George Conway article?” she quotes the president as saying. “F**ing FLIP! Disloyal! Fucking Goo-goo.”
Both flip and goo-goo are terms of racial abuse for Filipinos.
It’s easy enough for the White House to dismiss Omarosa’s claims as an attempt to sell copies of her book, which is exactly what they have done.
…White House press secretary Sarah Sanders said: “Instead of telling the truth about all the good President Trump and his administration are doing to make America safe and prosperous, this book is riddled with lies and false accusations.
“It’s sad that a disgruntled former White House employee is trying to profit off these false attacks, and even worse that the media would now give her a platform, after not taking her seriously when she had only positive things to say about the president during her time in the administration.”
Oh yeah, gotta get a dig in at the media every time you issue a statement.
How about Kellyanne Conway struggling to name one black person who works in the West Wing?

Decent attempt at spin doctoring, but not sure you quite pulled it off. Oh, Ja’Ron, you say? Here’s Elle:
This mysterious Ja’Ron has since been identified by ThinkProgress as Ja’Ron Smith who is the Director of Urban Affairs and Revitalization. The Washington Post’s Josh Dawsey pointed out on Twitter that Smith is a “mid-level aide.” This would put him in the Eisenhower Executive Office Building, which is next to the White House, which means he does not work in the West Wing. Close, but no cigar, Kellyanne.
I bet if those tapes ever see the light of day, Kanye will rush to the defence of Donald, his supporters will dismiss it as locker-room talk style stuff, and the rest of us will watch on open-mouthed.
