Omarosa on Trump tapes, credibility

In her new book, "Unhinged," former White House staffer Omarosa Manigault-Newman claims the Trump campaign was aware of the existence of a recording of Donald Trump using the N-word. She describes an October 2016 phone conversation with Lynne Patton, then-assistant to Eric Trump, spokesperson Katrina Pierson and campaign communications director Jason Miller in which they discuss how to deal with the potential fallout from its release. She released a tape of that conversation to CBS News and joins "CBS This Morning" to discuss why she was recording conference calls during the campaign, address rumors about the nature of her relationship with President Trump and questions about her credibility.
