CNN  

CNN — Melania Trump’s spokeswoman Stephanie Grisham will get a major new role as both White House press secretary and communications director, the first lady tweeted Tuesday. President Donald Trump didn’t look far for his next press secretary in Grisham, who for the past two years has been the communications director for the first lady. Sanders’ pick A source close to the White House who is familiar with discussions regarding Trump’s selection of Grisham as press secretary says Sanders was talking up deputy White House press secretary Hogan Gidley as her replacement and talking down the idea of Grisham as late as her going away party Monday night with White House reporters. After flagging Ricardel’s behavior to the West Wing, to no avail, the first lady consented to Grisham releasing a statement that read: “It is the position of the Office of the First Lady that she no longer deserves the honor of serving in this White House.” Within two days, Ricardel had been dismissed from the White House by the President and Melania Trump had staked claim that she and her staff are not to be tangled with.
