Scalise shoots back after book claims Melania Trump refused to visit his family: 'pathetic'
Fox ^ | 04 October 2021 | Tyler O'Neil

House Minority Whip Steve Scalise, R-La., shot back after former White House Press Secretary Stephanie Grisham claimed that Melania Trump refused to visit Scalise in the hospital after he had gotten shot at a practice for the Congressional Baseball Game in 2017.

...In her book "I'll Take Your Questions Now: What I Saw at the Trump White House," Grisham wrote that the first lady's staff asked her if she wanted to visit the Scalises, who had gathered in the Blue Room at the White House, and she declined...

Scalise condemned the claim in no uncertain terms.

"This is how the fake news media machine against President Trump and [Melania] works. This never happened," the congressman claimed. "My family went to visit the White House while I was still in the hospital and were graciously given a tour by President and Mrs. Trump."

He condemned the claim as "another pathetic attempt by a disgraced former staffer to tell lies in order to sell books. If her publisher or a single outlet covering this story had done any fact-checking....

She’s a little b’tch. Now she’s going around claiming what a horror show it will be if Trump wins in 2024. Who the hell is she? She worked for Trump not even a year

Heart is likely as pickeled, sour and twisted as is her face.

I feel sorry for her two ex-husbands.

The democrats are calling her out for staying with Trump until 2 weeks before she left her job. The republicans are calling her out for lies and being a disgruntled employee. Who is buying her book besides MSNBC and CNN?

President Trump should find a better way to separate the wheat from the chaff. Way too many disloyal and ungrateful parasites latched on before The Big Steal.

Lucky for Melania, she was able to have both parents living nearby in Washington DC, during Trump’s term.
It had to be a lonely experience for her.

Melania, apparently had even fewer friends she could trust than I had expected. Stephanie is the second of Mel’s ‘good friends’ to turn on her with a revenge book. Another woman came out with her book last year. I don’t recall her name. She was a blonde.

She’s probably getting paid a lot of money to look stupid to most people. Statistically, there have to be some taken in, though. DNC has unlimited dark money to spend so they don’t care. Anyone they can turn will be targeted.

Good- glad people are calling her out for her petty lying capitalism- if enough people refute what she is saying, her credibility will be shot with the fence sitters- the hard core will gobble anything she says with glee- but at least the fence sitters with at least some objectivity will see her for what she is- a money grubber who looks to capitalize on her former position by spreading false dirt-

Yep. Have you noticed these slimebags are still pumping out the hate Trump books while virtually nothing negative is out about Biden? I was looking at this the other day on Amazon.

Incredibly they have books CELEBRATING Biden! Even kids books as if he's already a folk hero on par with Lincoln. Look....

Look at this one, a book like they're the Kennedys....

Look at this one, WHAT a hero he is!

They should rename this one to "Promises I kept to China after they paid me"

Probably offered it up along with her soul during her “book deal”.

Don't listen to them. Don't watch them. Why anyone would watch and listen to and give credence to a male who takes it up the poop chute and walks straddle legged is a mystery to me. But the people of Tallahassee elected Andrew "Rodeo Sex" Gillum Mayor and the People of Florida almost elected him Governor. And they probably will next time. They must love freaks. They, the People, did get rid of President Trump, though.
