Stephanie Grisham excoriates ex-president at Democratic convention and says ‘he has no empathy, no morals’
Stephanie Grisham, Donald Trump’s former press secretary, excoriated the Republican presidential nominee at the Democratic national convention on Tuesday, saying: “He has no empathy, no morals, and no fidelity to the truth.”
Grisham, a Republican operative who also served as a spokesperson to Melania Trump, offered firsthand accounts of the former president’s behavior behind closed doors.
“I wasn’t just a Trump supporter, I was a true believer, I was one of his closest advisers. The Trump family became my family,” she said, saying she spent her holidays at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago residence. “I saw him when the cameras were off … Trump mocks his supporters. He calls them basement dwellers. On a hospital visit one time when people were dying in the ICU, he was mad that the cameras were not watching him.”
You're viewing a single thread.
Trump held a lottery where the grand prize was dinner with the former President.
No one ever won.
Isn't that like super illegal? I mean... Not that it matters at this point, throw it on the pile. But still
I mean, the idea of using the White House as a promotional gimmick is illegal.
Donnie don't care.
True story. Back in 2016 I got into it online with a MAGoo. Trump had just pled guilty to running his University as a scam. The MAGoo was fine with Trump ripping off the students, because it was the fault of the students for not reading the terms and conditions.
He can pee in their faces and they'll thank him for the cologne
I believe hosting a lottery and not actually paying out is also illegal.
In the article it said that the terms of the contest said that if it did not happen, a substitute prize would be chosen. Then, it said that it was reported a couple (from Mississippi) won it. Those details weren't confirmed independently, but they probably wriggled enough to be off the hook.
Yes, because nothing says honor and integrity like "terms and conditions may apply."
The point is that Donnie wouldn't let most of his supporters into a life raft, much less the White House.
It's a contest and they are required to have terms and conditions--look it up. It's a technicality and Trump thinks he's better than us poors, but it makes it legal, not the right thing to do. If there was evidence he never intended to have dinner with them, that would be illegal.
Official acts, baby! Just wait, maybe we get a monopoly scam like the McDonalds one if he wins the presidency :)
Rules for thee, not for the oligarchs.
It's amazing that this might shock insignificant republicans, if they faced reality and understood the facts of the matter.
Don't worry, they'll never figure it out. They're idiots.
The prize dinner was supposed to be in New Orleans by how I read the story.
You are correct and I edited my comment
