JFK: ‘Mimi, why don’t you take care of my baby brother — he could stand a little relaxation.’

From the DailyMail, UK Excerpt: No doubt my own insecurity and need for his approval had something to do with it. What I do know is that Dave and I were umbilically linked to each other in our devotion to President Kennedy. But now the man who’d engaged our complete loyalty had gone too far. He’d emotionally abused me and debased Dave. For what? To watch me perform and to show Dave how much he controlled us? Afterwards, I was deeply embarrassed. As I climbed out of the pool, I heard Dave say sternly to his boss: ‘You shouldn’t have made her do that.’ ‘I know, I know,’ was the reply. Later, a chastened President Kennedy apologised to us both. For the first time, I’d seen his dark side. I saw it again a year later, when I was in a room with him and his younger brother, Teddy. Once again, he tried to show off his power over me, this time suggesting: ‘Mimi, why don’t you take care of my baby brother — he could stand a little relaxation.’ This time I felt a flash of anger. And for the first time, I stood up to him. ‘You’ve got to be kidding,’ I said. ‘Absolutely not, Mr President.’ article here
