The president\u2019s assistant travelled with him to Ireland \u2013 which really shouldn\u2019t be much of a story. But his comms team seems determined to make it one<\/p>\n

She appears to be disturbingly obsessed with her boss and he seems to appreciate the attention: it was recently revealed<\/a> that Trump gave her (and two other female aides) a cash gift of $45,000 (\u00a333,000) for a nice holiday.<\/p>\n Continue reading…<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The president\u2019s assistant travelled with him to Ireland \u2013 which really shouldn\u2019t be much of a story.
