Grisham says she sought to shield young, female aide from Trump

Former White House press secretary Stephanie Grisham claimed in a new book that she sought to shield a young, female aide from former President Trump after he at one point invited her to his Air Force One cabin to “look at her.”

Grisham writes in her new book “I’ll Take Your Questions Now,” set to be released on Oct. 5, that she tried to keep a young, female aide away from Trump after the former president repeatedly invited her up to his Air Force One cabin, including one time to “look at her,” and used an expletive to describe her rear end.

Grisham also writes that Trump told her to promote the aide and “keep her happy," according to The New York Times, which received a manuscript of Grisham's book.


The former president said in a statement to The Hill Tuesday that Grisham “didn’t have what it takes and that was obvious from the beginning.”

He also said she “became very angry and bitter after her break up,” presumably referring to her reported previous relationship with former Trump aide Max Miller, adding that “as time went on she was seldom relied upon, or even thought about.”

“She had big problems and we felt that she should work out those problems for herself. Now, like everyone else, she gets paid by a radical left-leaning publisher to say bad and untrue things,” Trump added.
