>> Ed: TRACE GALLAGHER, I
CLAIMS FROM OMAROSA MANIGUAULT
NEWMAN AND REVEAL NEW
INFORMATION OF HER ARM, THE
FORMER SPOKESMAN FOR THE 2016
TRUMP CAMPAIGN, CURRENT SENIOR
ADVISOR DEVICE 2020 REELECTION
MISQUOTED AND OMAROSA'S NEW
BOOK.
GOOD EVENING.
>> GOOD EVENING, THANKS FOR
HAVING ME.
>> Ed: I APPRECIATE YOU BEING
HERE.
THE BOOK, ABOUT WHETHER THIS IS
TRUE OR NOT.
THAT THE TAPE WAS OF THE TRUMP
USING THE N-WORD.
SOMEONE WHO KNEW FRANK LUNTZ
TOLD HER THAT HE HAD HEARD IT.
THE LONGTIME TRUMP AIDE REPORTED
SHE ASKED TRUMP ABOUT IT ON THE
PLANE, WHETHER IT IS POSSIBLE
SUCH TREY TATE MIGHT EXIST AND
TO DO AND KATRINA CURSED AND
SAID, HE SAID."
DID THAT HAPPEN?
>> NO.
IT SOUNDS LIKE SHE'S WRITING A
SCRIPT FOR A MOVIE.
I'VE BEEN OUT THERE TALKING
I HAVE NO CONNECTIONS TO ANYONE
AT "CELEBRITY APPRENTICE," OTHER
THAN OMAROSA.
IN FACT, SHE WAS THE ONLY ONE
DESPERATE SITUATION.
I REALLY DO FEEL SORRY FOR HER.
I WAS REALLY CONCERNED WITH
OMAROSA WHEN SHE GOT MARRIED,
WHEN SHE HAD TO BUY A FAKE
BUT I WILL NOT STAND BY AND
ALLOW HER TO CONTINUE TO TARNISH
>> Ed: WE GIVE YOU A CHANCE TO
RESPOND.
I WANT TO GET TO THE NEW
INFORMATION BUT FIRST, I WANT TO
BE CLEAR, YOU'VE BEEN AROUND THE
PRESIDENT DURING THE CAMPAIGN,
SINCE THE CAMPAIGN, SINCE HE WAS
ELECTED PRESIDENT.
HAVE YOU EVER HEARD HIM USE THE
N-WORD, ANY SORT OF RACIAL SLUR?
>> ABSOLUTELY NOT.
THE ANSWER IS NO.
IN FACT, THE PRESIDENT AND HIS
FAMILY HAVE BEEN NOTHING BUT
KIND, GENEROUS, AND RESPECTFUL
TO MYSELF AND EVERYBODY ELSE
THAT I KNOW OF COLOR OF COLOR.
DEVELOPMENT, LONGTIME TRUMP
ADVISOR, INSIDE AND OUTSIDE THE
GOVERNMENT.
I UNDERSTAND SHE'S PUTTING OUT A
STATEMENT THIS HOUR THAT IS
REFUTING THESE CLAIMS.
CAN YOU TELL US ABOUT THAT?
>> AS I MENTIONED, OMAROSA WAS
THE SOURCE OF THIS TAPE, SHE WAS
CAMPAIGN.
IN MY OPINION, AS A TOOL OF
MANIPULATION OF THE PEOPLE
AROUND HER.
SHE HAS BEEN MENTIONING LYNNE
INTERVIEWS AS SOMEONE WHO COULD
HAS RELEASED A STATEMENT THIS
EVENING AND SHE HAS GIVEN AN
>> IT'S RUNNING IN
MORE IMPORTANTLY, ED, IT'S THE
TIMELINE.
THE REASON WHY OMAROSA IS FACING
A RAPID CONTRADICTIONS IS
BECAUSE YOU CAN'T KEEP HER
LICENSE STRAIGHT.
SHE'S GOT OUT THERE AND SAID
THAT SHE HAS NOT HEARD THE TAPES
UNTIL HER BOOK WAS FINALIZED.
WHATEVER HE WANTED IT NOW AND
WHAT LYNNE PATTON IS ANNOUNCING
TONIGHT --
>> Ed: THAT IS LYNNE PATTON
RIGHT THERE.
JUST WANT TO BE CLEAR.
A PHONE CALL SHE SAYS, OMAROSA
TOLD HER THEN THAT SHE HAD HEARD
THE TAPE WHERE THE PRESIDENT
ALLEGEDLY SAID THE N-WORD.
SIGNIFICANT BECAUSE NOW IN
RECENT DAYS, OMAROSA HAS SAID
THAT SHE HAS NOT HEARD IT UNTIL
AFTER WRITING HER BOOK.
DECEMBER 12, 2017, SHE HADN'T
WRITTEN THE BOOK AND SHE WAS
STILL IN THE WHITE HOUSE.
THAT IS OF A CONTRADICTION.
IS THAT WHAT YOUR UNDERSTANDING
IS TONIGHT?
>> IT'S A MAJOR CONTRADICTION.
IT'S A BOMBSHELL, LYNNE PATTON.
TWO DAYS AFTER THAT, SHE WENT ON
ABC NEWS INTERVIEW DEFENDING A
PRESIDENT, SAYING, "THAT HE IS
NOT A RACIST."
SO HOW COULD THAT BE POSSIBLE IF
SHE HEARD THE TAPE ALREADY, THAT
SHE WAS USING AS THEIR EXCUSE TO
>> Ed: ANOTHER QUICK POINT I
WANT TO MAKE.
MARK BURNETT, TOP -- ONE OF THE
CREATORS OF "THE APPRENTICE,"
EXISTS.
BILL PRUITT, ANOTHER PRODUCER ON
"THE APPRENTICE" IS
CORROBORATING HER STORY.
>> BILL PRUITT WAS THE PRODUCER
OF SEASONS ONE AND TWO, WHERE
SHE IS CLAIMING THAT THIS
APPARENTLY TOOK PLACE.
SHE ALSO TOLD LYNNE PATTON THAT
BILL PRUITT WAS HER ORIGINAL
SOURCE OF THE TAPE, AND LYNNE
PATTON SPOKE WITH BILL THIS
EVENING AND IS ANNOUNCING THAT
THAT IS SIMPLY NOT TRUE AND AS I
SUSPECTED, ALL ALONG, THIS TAPE
DOES NOT EXIST.
OMAROSA EXTRAS DESPERATE FOR
MONEY FOR MONEY.
>> Ed: ALL RIGHT.
LAST QUESTION.
YOU ARE AT HER WEDDING.
THERE ARE PHOTOS OF YOU ONLINE
HAVING FUN WITH OMAROSA.
I KNOW PEOPLE, FRIENDS, THEY
BREAK UP, THE PRESIDENT HIRED
TAXPAYER MONEY INSIDE THE
WHITE HOUSE.
THE PRESIDENT AND THE CAMPAIGNS
THAT HE WAS GOING TO HIRE THE
BEST AND THE BRIGHTEST, THAT HE
WAS A BUSINESS NAME, THERE YOU
ARE AT THE WEDDING.
HE'S HAD PROBLEMS NOW WITH
MICHAEL COHEN AS WELL.
STATING THE FACT BRAIDS BE WHEN
YOU TALKED ABOUT HER RING --
>> I DID FEEL SORRY FOR HER.
>> Ed: YOU SAID IT WAS TRASH
FOR CASH.
I WANT TO BE CLEAR.
YOU'VE BEEN FRIENDS WITH HER AND
THE PRESIDENT HIRED HER TO A
SENSITIVE WHITE HOUSE POST,
BEING PAID ALMOST $200,000 A
YEAR IN TAXPAYER MONEY.
MAKE BRADY SIMPLY GAVE AN
INDIVIDUAL AN OPPORTUNITY TO
ACHIEVE GREATNESS.
SHE COULD HAVE BEEN OUT THERE
CHAMPION HERE COMMUNITIES WITH A
PRISONER FORMAT EVERYTHING THAT
BUT PRESIDENT IS DOING FOR THE
BLACK COMMUNITY BUT SHE CHOSE TO
