Ex-White House stenographer: Trump is ‘lying to the American people’
By John Bowden - 07/18/18 09:35 AM EDT

A White House stenographer says she resigned over the Trump administration's lack of respect for her office after President Trump reduced the roles of the White House position.

Becky Dorey-Stein, who worked as a stenographer for the White House during the second half of the Obama administration, told CNN's New Day on Wednesday that Trump's refusal to allow stenographers in the room for meetings and interviews with some journalists crossed a line.

"I quit because I couldn't be proud of where I worked anymore," Dorey-Stein said. "I felt like President Trump was lying to the American people, and also...not even trying to tell the truth. He wasn't even going the extra mile to have the stenographers in the room"

Since she's a holdover from Obama, who gives a crap what she says about Trump?
Fart for freedom, fart for liberty and fart proudly.  - Benjamin Franklin

...Obsta principiis—Nip the shoots of arbitrary power in the bud, is the only maxim which can ever preserve the liberties of any people. When the people give way, their deceivers, betrayers and destroyers press upon them so fast that there is no resisting afterwards. The nature of the encroachment upon [the] American constitution is such, as to grow every day more and more encroaching. Like a cancer, it eats faster and faster every hour." - John Adams, February 6, 1775

"Stenographer"?   Maybe  she can find a minimum-wage typing-pool position for her next job.  Or write a book on a stenotype.

He doesn’t need a stenographer.  He makes notes.  The best notes.  Amazing notes.  Just like he really meant to say wouldn’t, he also really meant to put that extra ‘L’ in COLUSION.
I disagree.  Circle gets the square.

She is probably a big reason he disallowed stenographers.

Naw!  That would never pay as well as the deal she had pipelining every word she wrote down in those meetings to CNN!

I read the article - she said Trump didn't like a microphone near his head to record what he was saying.  He evidently didn't want a record of what he said.  Maybe he remembers Nixon and his tapes.  I see no reason to make a record unless it is important, such as having an important person there talking about an important subject when one would want to know exactly what was said.  That is likely what she means, not everyday back and forth, but something important when facts would matter.

Well, he's really going to hate the Cohen case, if there are recordings of him.

A rare bit of common sense.

Tomorrow Paul Ryan urge this steno be given immunity. Jeff Flake will author bill, to have  lip reader with a telescope follow Trump's golf outings.

No need.  We already saw him take 6 shots and write 4 on the scorecard.
