In her new memoir, "Unhinged," former White House adviser Omarosa Manigault Newman claims President Donald Trump considered getting sworn in for the presidency on his book, "The Art of the Deal."
In the days leading up to his inauguration, Trump allegedly said, "Omarosa, what do you think about me getting sworn in on 'The Art of the Deal?'"
Though it's not mandatory for presidents to use the Bible for the swearing-in portion of an inauguration ceremony, it has been standard practice throughout US history. Manigault Newman questioned Trump as to why he wouldn't continue this trend.
"'The Art of the Deal' is a bestseller! It's the greatest business book of all time," she says Trump told her. "It's how I'm going to make great deals for the country. Just think how many copies I'd sell—maybe commemorative a inauguration copy?!"
