President Donald Trump's allies are reportedly panicking about what the recently fired ambassador to Greece, Kimberly Guilfoyle, could spill about their secrets. Some even went as far as trying to save her job to avoid a massive leak.
Guilfoyle, who is Donald Trump Jr.'s former fiancée, was asked to resign on live television as U.S. ambassador to Greece after a WSJ expose revealed a potential quid pro quo scandal.
According to a Daily Mail report, the president’s aides tried to keep her in the job due to fears that she may expose the Trump family and their political operation. One source told the outlet that Guilfoyle had spent enough years in Trump’s orbit to spill the beans on their personal lives.
"Kimberly knows everything," the insider said, explaining that she had been "way inside that family and political operation for years."
Another source told the outlet that "Having her back in America would be a nightmare."
That person added that Guilfoyle "knows where the bodies are buried," in reference to her knowledge about secrets and relationships inside Trumpworld. Another insider summed up the apparent calculation to keeping her close, stating: "Keeping Kimberly happy keeps Kimberly quiet."
The Mail reported that insiders believe Guilfoyle has kept a "burn book" about the Trumps, nicknamed "The Devil Wears MAGA," and is threatening to tell all.
In a statement after she was forced to resign, Guilfoyle claimed that she will remain loyal to Trump and MAGA, writing: “My gratitude and respect for President Trump and Secretary Rubio remain unwavering. I am proud of what we accomplished together, and I will always be a loyal supporter of President Trump and his mission to Make America Great Again.”
She continued, “While my time as Ambassador may be coming to an end, my commitment to President Trump, the America First movement, and the country I love will never end.”
She has not publicly acknowledged maintaining a diary on Trump’s inner circle. The report follows accusations that Guilfoyle traded her access to Trump for financial favors.
The Wall Street Journal reported that she begged Republican donor Eric Deters to pay her $100,000 credit card debt before her confirmation, allegedly offering access to influential figures in MAGA world in exchange
Guilfoyle's attorneys have denied wrongdoing; she herself denied the claims as “false allegations.”
Trump directly addressed Guilfoyle's controversy, saying that, "We're not happy." The next day, White House press secretary Katie Zacharia confirmed she had been asked to resign. Following the announcement, the president coldly dismissed her, saying to reporters, “No, she wasn’t a member of my family. She, I guess, dated my son a long time ago.”
