I am listening to the Audible version of her book -read by her of course
At the Inaugaration time right now
She wanted the position Assistant to the President--Office of Public Liason
Paula White, the evangelical minister opposed it--among others I imagine
Priebus told Omarosa that Paula White was the interference
Omarosa didn't know that Paula White really had that much clout w/in TRUMP circles--maybe Pence's since he is known religion convervative...admittedly Paula White had some contact with Trump and supported his campaign (and White gave the prayer at Inaugaration ceremony)
When Omarosa was really making her frustration about being blocked by Paula White known at some function where the extended Trump family was present one of the family members took her aside and said that Paula White enjoyed a special position with DJT---which to Omarosa only meant one thing--missionary position...
She didn't say who the family member was that told her but if I had to guess I would say it was Don Jr.'s wife Vanessa because she and Omarosa worked together pretty frequently on the campaign at the Women for Trump group and some other things...
No gossip about Paula White that Omarosa had heard but when you check a photo of Paula White there is strong similarity to many of the women Trump prefers for liaisons...
Anyway she got another title similar to OPL (that WAS created for her-not pre existing) and a big office in the Eisenhower Bldg 5 min from the Oval Office for the next 11 months...
Office space and location is usually an indication of power==since there were so many empty positions I don't know if you can say hers shows how popular she was with Trump or others in his circle--
But they could have given her a less attractive one since so many were available
So I think initially at least-she did have some power and access to Trump
Waiting to see how that dissolves and why
But just want to note that at no point up to this has she mentioned making tapes/recordings/videos of any of these conversations...but she has a very good memory for conversations that go back in time if she wasn't taking "contemporaneous" notes like Comey did...
