Melania Trump’s spokeswoman blasted Rudy Giuliani Thursday for saying the first lady believed President Trump over porn star Stormy Daniels.
“I don’t believe Mrs. Trump has ever discussed her thoughts on anything with Mr. Giuliani,” Stephanie Grisham, the first lady’s communications director, told New York Times White House correspondent Maggie Haberman.
Yikes. I asked @FLOTUS spokeswoman @StephGrisham45 about Giuliani saying that she believes her husband re Stormy Daniels. Response: “I don’t believe Mrs. Trump has ever discussed her thoughts on anything with Mr. Giuliani.”

Giuliani told attendees at Globes Capital Market Conference in Israel Wednesday that Melania Trump did not think her husband had an extramarital affair more than a decade ago with Daniels.
“She believes her husband, and she doesn’t think it’s true,” he said.
Giuliani, one of President Trump’s personal lawyers representing him in regard to the federal Russia investigation, added he didn’t view Daniels as credible given her profession.
The White House vehemently denies the president had a relationship with the adult film actress.
Melania Trump has remained largely silent regarding the affair.
Grisham said in March the first lady was “focused on being a mom” while working on her future projects in response to press inquiries.
