She was a family historian and my mothers family. She was the keeper among others of our clansmen. She had some papers and files and she had a way of speaking about our Family History that was like this. The one to remember is our clansmen, my grandfather. He was a redeemer. The redemption returned in new orleans after they had been dislodged. And if you had not battled liberty place, we would not be here today. When she died, her papers went to my mother.

This is fun to ask you questions again. It feels like old times. We are back into the normal routine. Your book is less about President Trump and more about you. Its about your time at the white house, but i wanted to ask you you do have some behindthescenes tales, but shortly theres some dirty laundry that you dont reveal. Let me ask how do you choose whats not to include . Guest there are so many books out there that have kind of been negative and the nasty score settling and that is into im as a person. Number two, i wanted people to get a different side into different perspective and frankly after two and a half years in the white house and another year on the campaign of my experience working for the president was a positive one.
