Did a new tell-all Donald Trump book coming out today leave former first lady Melania Trump fighting mad and lashing out with uncharacteristic venom?
Current Events
The book I’ll Take Your Questions Now: What I Saw at the Trump White House was written by Stephanie Grisham, who just happens to have been Melania’s chief of staff in the East Wing of The White House. Although it has become common practice for former employees during the Trump era to dish about ‘The Donald’ and his escapades in order to score a fast buck, this new Trump book might actually be worthwhile since it appears to have clearly struck a nerve in the Trump household.
Stephanie Grisham had a front-row seat during the Trump years, having served as White House press secretary, communications director, and the first lady’s chief of staff. She resigned on January 6th following the Trump-led Capitol riot.
In the new Trump book, Grisham discussed the “unusual interest” Donald Trump took in a particular female staffer. She said she tried to keep the young woman away from Trump but soon realized there was little she could do to protect her.
“I don’t know if I could have [protected her],” Grisham told ABC’s George Stephanopoulos during a GOOD MORNING AMERICA appearance. “There’s not an HR department at the White House.”
Grisham admitted in the Trump book that she felt responsible for enabling a culture of dishonesty at The White House. She also used the memoir to tattle how Trump obsessed over the public’s perception of the size of his penis, how staffers used show tunes to calm Trump’s frequent rage, and how Trump warned Vladimir Putin that he was going to “act a little tougher” with him “for the cameras” just to appear strong against Russia.
Interestingly, Melania Trump appears to be having NONE of the new Trump book and made it known by whipping out her claws in a social media retort.
NEW statement from @OfficeofMelania on Stephanie Grisham:
“The author is desperately trying to rehabilitate her tarnished reputation by manipulating and distorting the truth about Mrs.Trump.

“The author is desperately trying to rehabilitate her tarnished reputation by manipulating and distorting the truth about Mrs. Trump,” Melania said in a statement on Monday while oddly referring to herself in 3rd person (a practice regularly used by Donald Trump). “Ms. Grisham is a deceitful and troubled individual who doesn’t deserve anyone’s trust.”
Soon thereafter, Donald Trump proved he just couldn’t remain silent.
Statement from President Donald J. Trump:
“Stephanie didn’t have what it takes and that was obvious from the beginning. She became very angry and bitter after her break up and as time went on she was seldom relied upon, or even thought about. She had big problems and we felt…

“Stephanie didn’t have what it takes and that was obvious from the beginning,” Trump said in a statement tweeted out by his spokeswoman (‘The Donald’ is still banned from Twitter). “Now, like everyone else, she gets paid by a radical left-leaning publisher to say bad and untrue things. Too bad that sleaze bag publishers continue to report this very boring garbage.”
Now, here’s the million-dollar question: Did Melania really take the advice of singer Tammy Wynette to “Stand By Your Man,” or did Donald Trump himself actually write her public rebuke of the book then force Melania to go along with it?
So after years of having served Melania Trump Ms. Grisham recognized, “on January 6th following the Trump-led Capitol riot” that being associated with the Trumps in ANY way shape or form could be professional suicide, Her reputation flushed down the toilet.
Having deduced that the cost was too high, she ran for cover and then wrote a book to do just as Melania stated: “The author is desperately trying to rehabilitate her tarnished reputation…..”
Yep. And also make a few more “duckets.”
Honestly, I’ve never seen so many shameless cowards in my life!
