In her new memoir, former Andrew Cuomo aide Melissa DeRosa recalls a plot by Donald Trump to prank Cuomo’s younger brother, CNN anchor Chris Cuomo.
DeRosa’s book, What’s Left Unsaid: My Life at the Center of Power, Politics & Crisis, came out on October 24. DeRosa details a prank that the former president and former governor of New York tried to play on the reporter.
During a dinner at the Oval Office, Trump suggested that he and Andrew prank call Chris.
According to DeRosa, Andrew tried to dodge the joke by reminding Trump that his phone had been taken, per security protocol, and that he believed Chris to be “busy” at that moment.
“Oh, come on, it would be so funny!” Trump allegedly pushed Andrew.
The former president finally gave up, saying, “Ok, fine. But, it would have been fun.”
DeRosa remembers that “the whole thing felt like I was having an out-of-body experience.”
The new memoir also details DeRosa’s encounters with New York Attorney General Letitia James, New York City Mayor Eric Adams, and other prominent politicians.
Andrew was forced to resign as New York governor after a series of harassment allegations were made by various women. Chris lost his job at CNN after it was revealed that he privately counseled his brother during the scandal.
