Wait, Trump Just Gave Omarosa a Position Doing What?

Hold up, hold up, hold up. It seems that the White House has slipped a little news past us while we’ve all been focused on IHOP’s offer of ā€œAll You Can Eatā€ pancakes, which has been extended until Feb. 12.

Hold up, hold up, hold up. It seems that the White House has slipped a little news past us while we’ve all been focused on IHOP’s offer of ā€œAll You Can Eatā€ pancakes, which has been extended until Feb. 12. Omarosa Manigault—yes, she of reality-star fame—will serve as part of the presidential delegation to the Republic of Haiti to attend the swearing-in of Haiti’s new president, Jovenel MoĆÆse.

I know what you’re thinking: What the hell is the presidential delegation, and why are we going to Haiti to be a part of this?

Well, stop me if you’ve heard this before. Turns out that MoĆÆse has been surrounded by controversy and has no political experience. He ran on a platform of creating job growth.

Basically, he’s the Haitian Donald Trump. He even has the Trump speech pattern down.

ā€œTogether, we are going to carry out the national project to develop the country. As you all know, agriculture is my priority. You all know this; I have just said it,ā€ MoĆÆse said, CNN reports. ā€œAgriculture needs to be modernized so as to give work to youth, women and men from the country.ā€

I’m just unclear as to why the real Omarosa had to be a part of this. Can’t Haiti create a Haitian Omarosa? Surely there are better things for her to do, like watching videos on YouTube or running a hot bath for the president.

Oh, come on, you know you thought it, too.

No, really; what does Omarosa do? Let me know in the comments.
