Ex-Aide Predicts Melania Trump's Response To 'Humiliating' Trial Moment
HuffPost
Stephanie Grisham said it was "absolutely" significant development for Donald Trump.
Stephanie Grisham, a former aide to Melania Trump, said she didn’t expect the former first lady to leave her husband Donald Trump, despite the salacious and embarrassing allegations that have emerged in the former president’s ongoing hush money trial.
Melania Trump “knew who she married,” Grisham told CNN’s Erin Burnett on Monday.
Former Trump fixer and attorney Michael Cohen testified in court earlier in the day that Trump appeared unfazed by his wife’s potential response to learning of his alleged 2006 sexual encounter with porn actor Stormy Daniels. Trump is accused of falsifying business documents during the 2016 election to cover up a payment for Daniels’ silence. Trump denies the claims.
Cohen said Trump told him when they were arranging the payment, “How long do you think I’ll be on the market for? Not long.” Cohen said Trump “wasn’t thinking about Melania” and that the alleged scheme was “all about the campaign.”
Burnett asked Grisham if the reported exchange could be one of the moments from the trial that “may be very significant for Trump, Trump’s life, for his marriage.”
