Stephanie Grisham Delivers Scathing Critique of Trump at DNC Event: Catch the Highlights!

 

 

Ex-Trump aide Stephanie Grisham criticizes former boss at DNC: Watch


 

On Tuesday, Stephanie Grisham was one of the initial speakers at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago.

 

Grisham has a background in politics, having served as the White House Press Secretary from July 2019 until April 2020 under former President Donald Trump.

She expressed that she was once a “true believer” in Trump until January 6, 2021. Following the violent events at the Capitol, she became the first senior official to resign from the Trump Administration.

The Democratic National Committee’s convention is ongoing in Chicago from Monday, August 19 through Thursday, August 22. On Thursday, Vice President Kamala Harris is set to officially accept her nomination for the 2024 Election.

 

Who is Stephanie Grisham?

  • Background: In addition to her role as White House Press Secretary and as the chief of staff for former First Lady Melania Trump, Stephanie Grisham also served as a spokesperson for various political figures in Arizona including AAA Arizona, the Arizona Attorney General, the Arizona House of Representatives Republican caucus, and former Arizona House Speaker David Gowan. She also contributed to Mitt Romney’s campaign in 2012.
  • Current stance: Grisham has worked with several Republican candidates but is now changing her allegiance to support the Democratic Party’s nominee for the 2024 presidential election, Kamala Harris.
  • Notable statement: “[Trump] lacks empathy, morals, and a commitment to truth. He would often tell me, ‘It doesn’t matter what you say, Stephanie, just keep saying it, and people will believe you.’ But it does matter. What you say and what you choose to leave unsaid are important. On January 6, I asked Melania if we could at least put out a Tweet asserting that while peaceful protests are a right every American has, lawlessness and violence are unacceptable. She responded with a single word: ‘No.’
