Stephanie Grisham, former press secretary for former President Donald Trump, spoke at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago on Tuesday, a night devoted to bringing “bold vision” to America’s future and a new generation of Democratic leadership.
Watch Grisham’s remarks in the player above.
Recounting her time as part of Trump’s administration, Grisham said she was more than a supporter, noting she spent holidays with the family.
But behind closed doors, she said, “He has no empathy, no morals, and no fidelity to the truth.” She noted she was the first senior staff member to resign during the Capitol insurrection on Jan. 6, 2021, and that she now supports Vice President Kamala Harris.
“Kamala Harris tells the truth, she respects the American people, and she has my vote,” Grisham concluded.
Later in the week, Harris and Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz will formally accept their nominations as the party’s candidates.
