Uproar Over Omarosa Manigault-Newman at Black Journalists Convention
It became a 25-minute argument during which Ms. Manigault-Newman called Mr. Gordon “aggressive,”
with Mr. Gordon pointedly asking what effect Ms. Manigault-Newman had made on the president.
In one heated exchange, Mr. Gordon recounted Mr. Trump’s comments last month on Long Island
that suggested police officers should rough up suspects while taking them into custody.
Ms. Manigault-Newman, who had been seated, stood up and walked across the stage and said Mr. Gordon was being “aggressive.”
She also accused the crowd of journalists of not having sympathy for the deaths of her father and brother.
Ms. Manigault-Newman interjected, “Are you suggesting that I just walk away?”
Mr. Gordon replied that he was not suggesting that, and that he would like to finish asking the question.
