Alyssa Farah Griffin, now a political strategist who often appears on CNN and other networks, was the White House Director of Strategic Communications and Assistant to the President Trump in 2020.
She also counseled blockbuster witness Cassidy Hutchinson during her testimony before the House committee investigating the Jan. 6, 2021, insurrection, and in Hutchinson’s allegations in her book, “Enough,” that Trump lawyer Rudy Giuliani put his hand “under my blazer, then my skirt.”
Farah Griffin has jumped off the Trump train, and on Thursday made a wild prediction on Twitter — that Trump “will lose the popular vote by the largest margin in modern history.”
But she also cautioned that if the Democrats bungle this chance to bury Trump, they could hand him the election:
“I grew up in the conservative movement & spent my career in GOP politics. I’ve NEVER known of so many lifelong Republicans who under no circumstances will support Trump. These are people who worked for GOP lawmakers, at Right of Center think tanks, & PACs,” she tweeted.

“Mark my words: Donald Trump will lose the popular vote by the largest margin in modern history. There are simply more Americans who oppose Trump than support him.
“But, but, but … we know the election will come down the Electoral count in ~7 swing states, based on the votes of ~500,000 people. Biden has significant weaknesses & democratic apathy, low turnout, or smart campaigning by Trump could easily hand the election to Trump,” she cautioned.
Farah Griffin recently appeared on ABC’s “The View” and commented on the possible candidates to be Trump’s vice president — Ron DeSantis, Tulsi Gabbard, Tim Scott, Kristi Noem, Byron Donalds and Vivek Ramaswamy. She called them all “weak.”
She called Ramaswamy “one of the most off-putting indiviuals I’ve ever seen on national television. ... The one theme I see here is people with a lot of rage, with the exception of Tim Scott. What does he add? That’s unclear to me.”
She said a pairing of Trump and Gabbard would be “Vladimir Putin’s dream ticket,” and pledged as an Syrian American that she will never forgive Gabbard for “meeting with and defending” Syria President Bashar al-Assad, who has been accused of war crimes and killing his own people.
A French court has issued an international arrest warrant for al-Assad for complicity in war crimes against humanity linked to chemical weapon attacks on civilians.
“Donald Trump, Tulsi Gabbard ... you would lose every normie Republican like myself who wants to stand by NATO, wants Ukraine to defeat Russia. That’s bizarre to me,” Farah Griffin said.
