Does the name Stephanie Grisham ring any bells? Considering that she was a member of the Trump administration and staff turnover was a constant during the years failed, one-term former President Donald Trump was in office, you can be forgiven if her name doesn’t automatically evoke any memories of her tenure.
Grisham was chief of staff to Melania Trump and also served as White House press secretary for a time. She’s the press secretary who never once held a press briefing. Remember her now? Here she is:
According to Axios, Grisham may soon be a household name thanks to a tell-all book she’s written about her time inside the Trump administration, because she’s allegedly going to detail scandals none of us knew about:
“Stephanie Grisham has quietly written a top-secret memoir of her four years in Donald Trump’s White House, and a publishing source says she’ll reveal ‘surprising new scandals.'”
The book — entitled I’ll Take Your Questions Now: What I Saw in The Trump White House — is especially dangerous for the Trumps because Grisham reportedly knows things others don’t:
A source close to the publication told Axios: “Grisham knows where all the bodies are buried because she buried a lot of them herself.”
The source says Grisham “has receipts … she was a press person and it was her job to make sure she knew what was happening.”
Grisham knows the Trump family well, too, according to Axios, and that led a former White House colleague to remark:
“When I heard this, all I could think about was Stephanie surrounded by a lake of gasoline, striking a match with a grin on her face.”
The danger from Grisham’s book is significant for Donald Trump since he’s considering running again in 2024, but the person who would be most impacted is Melania:
“Melania Trump guarded her privacy intensely and trusted almost nobody during her time as first lady. Grisham, as her chief of staff, was one of the very few allowed into her inner sanctum.
“She saw another side of the Trumps — in the residence — that most staffers never got to see.”
And that alone led the former staffer who served with Grisham to warn:
“There isn’t enough water on earth to contain the fire she could set to all of Trump world, including parts like the first lady’s orbit, which not many people are in a position to illuminate.
“It’s hard to articulate how much anxiety this is going to cause.”
Good. As much anxiety as Donald Trump caused during his term of office, it’s about time karma paid him a visit.
