Stephanie Grisham, a former member of the Trump Administration, has released a tell-all memoir titled “I’ll Take Your Questions Now,” shedding light on the chaotic and dysfunctional environment within the White House. Grisham served in various roles, including communications director and press secretary in the West Wing, as well as communications director and chief of staff in Melania Trump’s East Wing. In her book, she paints a picture of a White House overrun by chaos, with conflicting loyalties and abusive leadership from President Trump.
Grisham’s resignation on January 6, 2021, during the Capitol insurrection, marked the breaking point for her. The Trumps have already moved to discredit Grisham’s account, calling her “very angry and bitter.” Melania Trump, in particular, accused Grisham of distorting the truth to rehabilitate her reputation.
One of the most intriguing aspects of Grisham’s memoir is her insight into the daily routines of the first lady, Melania Trump, and her strained relationship with Ivanka Trump. Grisham reveals that Melania preferred to work from home, earning her the nickname “Rapunzel” among Secret Service agents. She also shares Melania’s disdain for Ivanka, whom she referred to as “the Princess.”
Grisham also delves into the conflicts of interest posed by Jared Kushner’s role in the administration, highlighting his lack of proper security clearance and inappropriate behavior. She describes Kushner as “Rasputin in a slim-fitting suit,” painting a picture of his overbearing influence in the White House.
Furthermore, Grisham takes aim at Senator Lindsey Graham, accusing him of using Trump for personal gain and enjoying the perks of his association with the former president. She also recalls Trump’s cozy relationship with dictators like Vladimir Putin, shedding light on their interactions during the G20 Summit in Osaka.
Additionally, Grisham reveals behind-the-scenes stories of memorable moments, such as Melania Trump’s hand-slap incident and the Stormy Daniels scandal. She also provides insights into Trump’s mysterious visit to Walter Reed Medical Center and his unique haircare routine.
While Grisham’s account must be taken with a grain of salt, given the nature of Trumpworld memoirs, her revelations offer a glimpse into the inner workings of the White House during the Trump era. “I’ll Take Your Questions Now” is sure to spark debate and controversy, as readers dissect Grisham’s version of events and revelations about key figures in the administration.
