In an interview during a media tour for her new show “House of Villains,” former White House staffer Omarosa Manigault Newman expressed doubts about Donald Trump’s political prospects, suggesting that it would be difficult for him to run for president again, especially if he runs into legal trouble.
“I think it’s going to be very difficult for Donald Trump to run for president from prison,” Omarosa said Page Six. He stressed the possibility of the 77-year-old ending up in prison before making a presidential comeback, adding: “It will be very difficult.”
Omarosa’s comments refer to Trump’s ongoing $250 million civil fraud trial in New York, in which he is accused of making false statements in business documents. However, the former president vehemently denied the allegations and declared his intention to appear in court in person to defend his “name and reputation.”

Omarosa and Trump first crossed paths during her appearance as a contestant on the inaugural season of “The Apprentice” in 2003. Her reputation for assertiveness and competitiveness led her to subsequent appearances on Trump’s shows, including “The Celebrity Apprentice” and “The Ultimate Merger.”
Their association continued for more than a decade, culminating in his role as Director of African-American Outreach during Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign. After his election victory, the Ohio native assumed the position of Director of Communications for the Office of Public Relations.
However, his tenure ended in December 2017 when he was fired by then-chief of staff John F. Kelly, an episode he later detailed in his 2018 memoir titled “Unhinged.” Omarosa has since distanced herself from Trump and publicly expressed regret for her support of his administration.

In an interview with Entertainment tonight, Omarosa admitted that she was cheated by Trump when she participated in “The Apprentice” and later served in his White House. Reflecting on her experience, she expressed disbelief, adding, “For me, I can’t believe I fell in love with a cheater, a cheater who turned out to be the biggest fraud.”
The “House of Villans” star revealed that most of the reality TV competition backgrounds, which they believe are real, are actually “made up, and it’s just a bunch of cards.”
He continued, “So, I mean, we were duped, and we were young entrepreneurs who thought we were really going to learn something from this brilliant businessman. What we learned was not the art of the deal but the art of deception.”
In her 2018 revelations, Omarosa also accused Trump of using racist and misogynistic language about black individuals and women.

In a chat with him Page Six, Omarosa, who, along with her “House of Villains” castmates, are competing for a $200,000 cash prize on the show, shared that some of her fellow contestants have shown interest in her political work before. On the other hand, others, like Corinne Olympios of “Bachelor Nation,” seem detached from politics, which Omarosa finds frustrating.
He humorously hinted at Olympios’ lack of political knowledge with sarcasm, stating, “I didn’t even know he could spell ‘White House.’”
However, he praised Jax Taylor from “Vanderpump Rules” and Anfisa Arkhipchenko from “90 Day Fiance” for their ability to engage in socio-political discussions.

Omarosa explained that she joined the “House of Villains” project as a way to celebrate her nearly 20-year career in the entertainment industry. “I wanted to do something fun to celebrate my 20 years in this crazy business.”
He sees it as a return to old-school reality TV, where contestants lived together, strategized, conspired and backstabbed. He described the experience as “delicious.”
Omarosa added: “When [my] agency called me and pitched it to me, I thought, ‘This sounds like old-school reality TV.’ [We’re] back to your roots, in a house living with people you don’t know, strategizing, plotting and backstabbing.” He described the experience as “delicious.”
