MADRID, 5 Ago. (EUROPA PRESS) –
The former White House spokeswoman during the Donald Trump Administration, Stephanie Grisham, has warned that some of the former president’s posts on social networks could be considered as “intimidation” of witnesses in the case of the assault on the Capitol and the attempts to reverse the result of the 2020 elections.
Grisham has acknowledged that Trump’s publication in Truth Social where he warned that “if you go for me, I’m going for you”, he found it “chilling” and has asserted that he considers this message as a threat to witnesses. “What other people so to take note of that?”, He has said himself.
“I just don’t understand, does someone have to get hurt before people take this type of ‘online’ intimidation seriously? (…) I know he is pointing fingers at prosecutors but, as someone who receives death threats every two days, it makes me nervous,” Grisham told CNN.
Former President Trump was indicted Tuesday for his attempts to reverse the result of the 2020 election, in which Joe Biden won. After weeks encouraging the specter of electoral fraud, on January 6, 2021, a mob of his followers stormed the Capitol in Washington.
For her part, Grisham served as White House spokesperson from July 2019 to April 2020, when she took office as chief of staff and also spokesperson for then-first lady of the United States, Melania Trump.
Since Trump’s electoral defeat and his efforts to air conspiracy theories, Grisham has spoken out against the former president and his role in the assault on the Capitol, an event that ensures that the former president continued on television “proud to see the people who fought for him “.
