美第一夫人发言人将成白宫新闻发言人

Stephanie Grisham, longtime spokeswoman and confidante to Melania Trump¹, will succeed Sarah Sanders as White House press secretary, the first lady announced Tuesday.

 

美国第一夫人梅拉尼娅·特朗普周二宣布，她的长期发言人斯蒂芬妮·格里沙姆将接替莎拉·桑德斯成为白宫新闻发言人。
 

 

Grisham is jumping into her new role by accompanying President Donald Trump on a trip to Asia starting Wednesday.

 

Grisham is one of the few campaign officials still at the White House and is someone the president trusts.

 

"Stephanie has been with me from the beginning, as most of you know," Trump told reporters during an unrelated White House event. "And then over the last couple years she's worked for the first lady, done a fantastic job. The first lady loves her, thinks she's been, you know, just incredible. She's very talented."

 

In addition to becoming White House press secretary, Grisham will also take on the role of White House communications director, a strategic and forward-looking role that has been vacant since March, when former Fox News Channel executive Bill Shine departed.

 

Grisham will be introduced to the demands of her new role when she travels with Trump to Japan and South Korea on a five-day trip that includes the president's highly anticipated meetings with the leaders of China and Russia.

 

The first lady tweeted the news of Grisham's promotion², saying she "can think of no better person to serve the Administration & our country."
