Ahead of the 2024 US Elections, Stephanie Grisham, the former White House press secretary under the Trump administration, spoke at the Democratic National Convention (DNC) on Tuesday to endorse Vice President Kamala Harris.
In her address, Grisham criticized former President Donald Trump, stating he lacks empathy, morals, and a commitment to truth.
Talking about Trump, she said ‘He has no empathy, no morals and no fidelity to the truth.’
On the second night of the DNC in Chicago, which focused on “A Bold Vision for America’s Future.” Grisham reflected on her experiences with Trump, noting that he disparaged his supporters as “basement dwellers” and claimed he mocked them when cameras were not present.
She also recounted a conversation with former First Lady Melania Trump during the January 6, 2021 riots. Grisham had asked Melania to post on social media condemning lawlessness and violence but received a simple “No” in response.

While supporting Kamala Harris, she said ‘advocating for a Democrat and that’s because I love my country more than my party. Kamala Harris tells the truth, she respects the American people and she has my vote.’
In addition, Jack Schlossberg, the only grandson of former President John F. Kennedy, also spoke at the convention, drawing parallels between his grandfather’s dedication to public service and Vice President Harris’s commitment, remarking ‘Like President Kennedy, Vice President Harris has dedicated her life to public service. She believes in America like my grandfather did — that we do things not because they’re easy, but because they’re hard.’
