We’re shocked at the latest allegations surrounding Melania Trump, as it’s been revealed she refused to meet with Republican Rep. Steve Scalise at the White House after he was shot at a congressional baseball practice back in 2017. And we can’t actually believe the reason she gave!

According to a book released by former White House Press Secretary Stephanie Grisham – which is already full of so many exclusive and explosive inside details about her time working for Donald Trump’s family during his presidency – the former First Lady didn’t want to meet Scalise because she had “already said hello” to him in the hospital while he was recovering following the shooting, and didn’t see the need to do it again. We actually can’t believe it!

Scalise was among several people who were shot by a rifle-wielding gunman while practicing for the Congressional Baseball Game for Charity at Eugene Simpson Park in Alexandria, Virginia on June 14th, 2017. He was reportedly shot in the hip, and then was promptly taken to MedStar Washington Hospital Center by a U.S. Park Police helicopter, and then underwent surgery.

Grisham wrote that the politician reportedly visited the White House for an unscheduled visit with his family shortly after coming out of hospital; and when Melania was asked if she would like to greet the Scalises, who were patiently waiting in the Blue Room of the White House, she replied with a very short and blunt answer.

"Her response was, 'No, I already said hello,'" Grisham wrote, referring to the time Melania and her husband visited Scalise at the hospital when he was recovering from the shooting. According to Grisham, the former First Lady's response became a running inside joke among some of the staff in the East Wing. "Whenever the first lady said no to something, we would say to each other, 'Well, she already said hello!'" How funny!

Grisham's book promises to be full of behind-the-scenes info about life in the White House. She served as Melania's chief of staff before becoming the third Trump White House press secretary from July 2019 to April 2020, following Sean Spicer and Sarah Huckabee Sanders. Her book, I'll Take Your Questions Now: What I Saw At The Trump White House, is out now.
