Omarosa on Helping ‘Con Man’ Trump Get Elected: ‘Hillary Clinton Was Robbed — and I Was a Co-Conspirator in That Robbery’ — WATCH
Former White House staffer Omarosa Manigault appeared on The View Monday and said she would regret the work she did for Donald Trump for the rest of her life.
Said Manigault: “At some point you have to stop a toxic relationship. I was in a toxic relationship with Donald Trump, and I regret that I was so complicit. You know, Hillary Clinton was robbed. And I was … a co-conspirator in that robbery. And I will regret that for the rest of my life that I was a co-conspirator along with the rest of the folks on this campaign that I helped this con man get into office. It’s very clear if you look at the report from the intelligence community that Russia assisted Donald Trump with getting elected. He might ignore it but I actually respect the intelligence community and their findings in that report. Have you seen that report? It’s airtight.”

South Carolina Governor Orders Mandatory Coastal Evacuation Ahead of Monster Category 4 Hurricane Florence
South Carolina Governor Henry McMaster ordered a statewide coastal evacuation ahead of Hurricane Florence, which is forecast to slam into the Carolinas as a Category 4 monster storm.
I have ordered a full coastal evacuation effective noon tomorrow, Tuesday, September 11. If you are unsure if you are in an evacuation zone please check here: t.co/wQkVroaiFJ t.co/Qd2ObVxkXn
— Henry McMaster (@henrymcmaster) September 10, 2018
The Post and Courier reports: “The evacuations covers some areas inland prone to flooding, including Berkeley County and parts of Dorchester County. One out of every five South Carolinians, about 1 million in all, are in the evacuation zones covering eight counties. The eastbound lanes of Interstate 26 heading into Charleston and U.S. 501 into Myrtle Beach will be reversed when the order takes effect, opening all lanes to evacuees. A decision on lane reversals in Beaufort County will be made on Tuesday, McMaster said.”
Thousands have also been ordered to evacuate the outer banks of North Carolina, the Charlotte Observer reports: “A State of Emergency was declared Monday on North Carolina’s Hatteras Island, with islanders and tourists leading what is expected to be a complete evacuation of coastal Dare and Hyde Counties.”

Qingdao (青岛, and formerly anglicized as Tsingtao) is a city in eastern Shandong Province on the east coast of China. It is the largest city in its province. Administered at the sub-provincial level, Qingdao has jurisdiction over six districts and four county-level cities. As of 2014, Qingdao had a population of 9,046,200 with an urban population of 6,188,100. It lies on the Shandong Peninsula and looks out to the Yellow Sea.
From 1898 to 1914, the port city was controlled by the German Empire. As a result the city has a number of historic German colonial buildings.
Qingdao is a major seaport, naval base, and industrial center. The world’s longest sea bridge, the Jiaozhou Bay Bridge, links the main urban area of Qingdao with the Huangdao district, straddling the Jiaozhou Bay. It is also the site of the Tsingtao Brewery, the second largest brewery in China, a relic of German control.
