Furious Trump told advisers that he wants Jeff Sessions to arrest Omarosa over her book: report

A new report from Vanity Fair's Gabriel Sherman claims that President Donald Trump now wants to see estranged aide Omarosa Manigault-Newman arrested over her recently published book.

According to one of Sherman's sources, "Trump told advisers that he wants Attorney General Jeff Sessions to have Manigault Newman arrested" despite the fact that "it’s unclear what law Trump believes she broke."

One former Trump White House official said that Trump's fury at Omarosa was setting him on a "death spiral" similar to the one that engulfed his campaign in the summer of 2016 when he attacked a Gold Star father who was critical of his proposal to ban Muslims from entering the United States.

Two former White House officials also tell Sherman that Omarosa has been masterful in the roll out of her book, as it seems her every move is designed purposefully to make Trump explode with rage.

"She is doing everything perfect if her ultimate goal is to troll Trump," one official explained.

Trump this week has furiously attacked his former aide after she accused him of being racist and in "mental decline" in her book, "Unhinged: An Insider's Account of the Trump White House." Among other things, the president has called Omarosa a "lowlife" and a "dog," and his campaign has filed a complaint against her for allegedly violating a nondisclosure agreement she supposedly signed while she was working for the Trump campaign.
