The series of exposé books about Donald Trump does not end: Now his former press spokeswoman Stephanie Grisham unpacks about her time in the White House and writes about colonoscopies, outbursts of anger and penis problems.
In the not too distant future there will be a metabiography about Donald Trump – summarized in it: all bizarre moments, irritating statements and unsavory details that appear in the more than a dozen books written by ex-employees about the previous one US presidents were written. Now the latest work is available, it comes from Stephanie Grisham. She was the White House press secretary for a little less than a year and has not held a single press conference during that time: “I knew that sooner or later the president would ask me to tell the public something that is not true, or me like a madwoman would make, “she now writes.
Trump’s mushroom-shaped penis problem
It’s probably not the case that the now 44-year-old couldn’t have known that beforehand, after all, she had previously worked for First Lady Melania Trump. But what Grisham now reports about her time at Trump’s side, she probably would not have wanted to know. Like the anecdote about his argument with the porn actress Stephanie Cliffords aka Stormy Daniels. In her book, she had described the shape of his genitals, which Donald Trump had apparently been dissatisfied with. In the presidential plane he called Grisham to counter Daniel’s remarks that his penis was “mushroom-shaped”. You, Grisham, replied, “Uh, okay, sir”.
Her book with the title “I’ll Take Your Questions Now” is 352 pages long. According to the publisher HarperCollins, it will appear in the US on October 5th. Like all disclosure books, the Trumps harshly criticized Grisham’s work. “This book is another pathetic attempt to exploit the president’s strength and sell lies about the Trump family,” US media quoted Trump spokeswoman Liz Harrington as saying.
Like many books before, Stephanie Grisham tells explosive and curious stories from the cosmos of the former US president. To keep Trump from his “terrifying” tantrums, for example, a White House employee known as a “music man” was assigned to play him his favorite songs, the New York Times wrote, citing Grisham’s book. Among them was “Memory” from the musical “Cats”. Trump apparently kept yelling at the then White House legal advisor, Pat Cipollone, for repeatedly rejecting his requests as “unethical or illegal”.
Trump cuts his own hair
There is also something new about Trump’s eye-catching hairstyle. The 75-year-old cut his hair himself, “with huge scissors, with which you could probably cut a ribbon at the opening of one of his houses,” the broadcaster CNN quoted from the book.
But it also sheds new light on events such as a meeting between Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin. After an initially cool reception from Putin at a meeting, Trump did everything to please the Russian head of government. “I’m going to be a little harder towards you for a few minutes. But that’s only for the cameras, and when they’re gone, we’ll keep talking,” Trump is said to have told the Kremlin chief at the G20 summit in Osaka, Japan.
In 2019, Trump underwent a “very common procedure” during a mysterious hospital visit, Grisham continues, and suggests that it was a colonoscopy. Because he feared “butt jokes” in the late-night shows, the operation should be kept a secret. In addition, he refused anesthesia because he would then have had to temporarily relinquish his powers to his deputy, Mike Pence. Trump was of the opinion that this was a sign of “weakness”.
“We were like milk bottles with an expiration date,” writes 45-year-old Grisham, looking back on her time in government. At some point everyone was no longer welcome to the president. For her, it had happened in mid-2020. She then returned to Melania Trump’s side and once again became her spokeswoman and at times also chief of staff. After the storming of the US Capitol by Trump supporters in early January, she resigned.
Melania preferred to take photos
Grisham also writes about the former first lady in her book. She is said to have largely retired to the White House and spent a lot of time with her son Barron and her parents, the Washington Times quoted from the book. One of her favorite activities was working on photo albums. Despite the party in the White House, she slept through election night. Grisham also reports on Melania’s unforgettable appearance on the trip to see refugee children on the Mexican border. At that time she was wearing a jacket with the words “I really don’t care – and you?” (“I really don’t care – Do u?”). At least according to the excerpts published so far, this choice of clothes remains a mystery. Donald Trump is said to have been quite angry.
