00:00With Omarosa gone, who's going to be in charge of...

00:05After former Trump aide Omarosa Manigo Newman insisted she resign from her White House post

00:10rather than being fired and escorted out, late-night hosts were quick to weigh in.

00:14During Omarosa's appearance on Thursday's Good Morning America,

00:17she argued that as the only African-American woman in this White House,

00:21she saw things that made her uncomfortable and upset, as well as affected her emotionally.

00:25That has affected my community and my people. And when I can tell my story,

00:29it is a profound story that I know the world will want to hear.

00:33On Comedy Central's The Daily Show, Trevor Noah was unmoved by Omarosa's emotional explanation.

00:38Noah asked, when she says her people, does she mean reality show stars?

00:43Because she was not fighting for black people in the White House.

00:46You can't roll hard with President Trump for a year and then come back to the neighborhood like,

00:50hey, that was really weird, right?

00:52Omarosa also argued on GMA that despite what reports say, she resigned from her role

00:57with General John Kelly in the Situation Room, something NBC's late-night host Seth Meyers found rather fitting.

01:03He said,

01:10Seriously, you know it's bad when they have to fire you in the same place they killed Osama bin Laden.

01:15Meanwhile on CBS's The Late Show, Stephen Colbert was quick to mock Omarosa's questionable role in office.

01:21He also expressed his slight disappointment that Trump didn't do the firing himself.

01:25Firing Omarosa is literally the only job Donald Trump is qualified for.

01:30And on NBC's The Tonight Show, Jimmy Fallon called the whole thing a rerun of The Apprentice.

01:34Guys, you remember that old episode of The Apprentice where Trump fires Omarosa and she flips out?

01:39Well, I guess they aired a rerun the other night at the White House.

01:42Fallon went on to say,

01:43Omarosa's trying to put a positive spin on things.

01:46She said her goal all along was to reach one year of working in the White House,

01:50which is funny because that's actually Trump's goal too.
