During his White House years, she worked as press secretary, communications director, and as Melania Trump’s chief of staff and expressed public support for POTUS’ policies. As The New York Times pointed out, though, it was somewhat ironic that Grisham, as press secretary, seemed to spend more time avoiding the press than actually keeping them informed about what was going on. While Grisham was, in fact, a big Trump booster in earlier days, she said the scales began to fall from her eyes when the then-president seemed to side with her abusive ex who also worked at the White House. In an op-ed piece she wrote for The Washington Post, Grisham described the situation.
“A White House staffer accused of assault by a woman whom the president knew and trusted? It didn’t even seem to register on the president’s radar screen as a concern.” Still, Grisham remained by the president’s side through the long-contended election, all the way up until the January 6, 2021 attack on the Capitol. At that point, she resigned her position and soon after started working on her dirt-dishing memoir, “I’ll Take Your Questions Now.” The book was released on October 5, 2021, and Grisham is busy making the rounds on liberal media outlets she once despised in order to promote it. Not everyone’s buying what she’s selling, though, including CNN anchor Don Lemon.
