Former White House aide Omarosa Manigault Newman said that Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton was “robbed” during the 2016 presidential election.
Manigault Newman appeared on ABC’s “The View” on Monday and said she regrets being a “complicit” member of the Trump team.

Omarosa Manigault Newman may have recorded “nearly every conversation” that she was part of during her time as an aide at the White House, especially those with “all of the Trumps” in the room.
Manigault Newman used her personal cellphone to record the conversations, including those in the supposedly secure Situation Room in the White House, reported Axios, who cited a source “who watched her make many of the tapes.”
The source says that the former aide would keep both her government-issued phone and her personal phone close at hand, and use the work phone for conducting business — while recording conversations with her own.
“She would often press ‘record’ on her personal phone — which she carried in her pocket or in a small purse,” according to Axios.
