In reply to the discussion: Omarosa recorded chief of staff Kelly in White House situation room [View all]Lint Head
(15,064 posts)8. I'm now seeing her in a different light. I've experienced people
who bask in the glow of a famous or powerful person to improve their station in life. I now feel she thought she could influence Trump but realized she was in a shit stew of back stabbing boot lickers. She was a boot licker herself. But finally feels she needs forgiveness from people she has wronged. I give her the benefit of the doubt. She does have tangible evidence to back up what she is saying. And John Kelly saying everyone in the White House answers to him is truly disturbing. I know the Chief of Staff kinda runs things but I guarantee you Obama had the last word on everything when he was President.
I have popcorn at the ready for the blow back and continuing story unfolding before us.

I don't think it's illegal for political appointees, they get almost no protection at all

I agree with you with what the law is, but the reality for political appointees is very different

This should be felony stuff, individuals should not be collecting spy data in the White House.

Does this not make Kelly look "good" in comparison? She DID have documented integrity issues...

It's not just the tapes, it's the reason why she knew she had to. She's mad as hell.
