The former Fox News host was engaged to the president-elect’s son, but their relationship status is unclear.

Kimberly Guilfoyle, the former Court TV anchor and Fox News host who became a staunch advocate for Donald Trump, has been chosen by him to be the next U.S. ambassador to Greece.

Trump announced the decision Tuesday in a social media post, calling her a “close friend and ally” who “is perfectly suited to foster strong bilateral relations with Greece.”

Guilfoyle was engaged to Donald Trump Jr., the president’s eldest child, but newspapers have recently published photos suggesting that he is now romantically involved with socialite Bettina Anderson.

Neither Trump Jr. nor Guilfoyle has publicly announced a split, and their relationship status is unclear.

1. Nothing surprises me anymore ...

. . . . .

[RandySF]

2. She must have threatened

to go public about Junior’s coke habit.

[riversedge]

4. Yes, she would have first hand knowledge!

[tanyev]

17. The woman who got fired from Fox for showing dick pics of men she'd been with?

Yeah, they had to give her something to keep her quiet.

[magicarpet]

35. Donnie Jr. says,...

" Daddy Kimberly is about to get very angry and blow the whistle on the improprieties and criminal wrongdoings of the trDUMP family.

Can we possibly ship her off to Siberia and put some distance from her so she won't rat us out ?"

[JoseBalow]

52. I think you're exactly right

Here's a "gift" for you, now go far away and look busy.

[YodaMom2]

56. My first thought, exactly.

Donnie Dumbass Jr. can’t just dump her - she knows too much. Not just about him, but about Daddy, too. And opportunist/climber that she is, she’d use whatever leverage she has to come out of this with something.

People opining about how humiliating this must be for her don’t get it: she’s long past being able to feel anything approaching shame. Her coked-up performance at the 2020 virtual Rep. convention is all the proof anyone should need.

3. The same day Don Jr. debuts his new girlfriend, Kimberly Guilfoyle lands a new post in Greece. This is no coincidence.

36. Yep. What a nice solid for jr. to get Kimberly out of the way. nt

[Captain Zero]

42. Exactly works out good for Junior. She's halfway around the world now.

[Irish_Dem]

5. Trump continues to insult our allies and humiliate the US.

[brer cat]

20. It is a major embarrassment for us.

[Irish_Dem]

44. Yes that is one of the goals.

Who wants to humiliate the US and why?

Who benefits?

[Joinfortmill]

6. No one will work for him.

8. the wanna be eva parone has been banished to the frontier.

all so jr can have a new cocaine buddy.

[Mike Nelson]

9. Ha-ha!

... I'm sure The Donalds will send someone over to help her pack.

[Mr. Sparkle]

10. nepo appointee

more embarrassment

[Botany]

11. Dear Jesus this is a nightmare

No way Trump won legitimately and now this?

[Ray Bruns]

12. Well, that is one way to get her out of the country.

[underpants]

31. That's what I thought too

[Evolve Dammit]

13. Excuse me. I think I'm going to hurl

[Attilatheblond]

14. Wondering if Habba is whispering into his ear about where he could send Melania off to 'serve the nation's interests'

Sort of a divorce with no alimony plan.

Let's see, Kari Lake to Mexico. Kimberly Guilfoyle to Greece. Trump likes them 'a little on the young side' so which other nuisance females in his circle have aged out and will be heading abroad?

[Bengus81]

15. LOL!! Reminds me of when Trump gave that idiot Sam Brownback from Kansas

his "job" as Ambassador for International Religious Freedom. That dumbshit was never seen again much to the delight of all of us in Kansas. As Governor he went further than Trump (for now) and gave Corporations a ZERO % tax rate in Kansas.

He almost bankrupted the State of Kansas in 4-5 years.

[keithbvadu2]

16. What an insult to Greece! They know they they are a dumping ground to get her away from the headlines.

[Callie1979]

18. One way to get her away from Don Jr

[marmar]

19. This country is becoming a cruel joke.

[Linda ladeewolf]

21. I was hoping

This was a gag from the Onion. 🫤

[COL Mustard]

22. In other words...

Get the crazy one far away to a warm, sunny place and let her have a nice, taxpayer funded vacation.

Far away. Did I mention far away?

[Oopsie Daisy]

23. What an insult to Greece!

[Farmer-Rick]

24. She gives me the creeps

Most Trump's are very creepy but this hanger-on is even creepier then all the rest. She looks like one of Malaria's Christmas decorations especially when she dresses in black.

[wolfie001]

25. Poor Greece

Not sending our best Americans and not by a long shot.

[70sEraVet]

26. An Ambassadorship in exchange for signing an iron-clad NDA

There's no carrot, without the stick!

[dchill]

27. "The best! Is yet! To COME!"

How do you say that in Greek?

[Captain Zero]

43. Τα καλύτερα δεν έχουν έρθει ακόμα !

It's Greek to me, but that's how you say it.

I bet she gets all kinds of discretionary budgets at the embassy to play with, funded, of course, by we the US Taxpayers.

[dchill]

46. I'm sure she will deserve and require a complete embassy makeover.

Sour Chasm.

[wolfie001]

28. Hate takes it's toll

Ooofph



Bonus*- Boy fiend looks a bit coked out. Right?

[Richard D]

40. Hate and . . .

. . . pretty bad plastic surgery.

[Anna Dault]

29. Must admit . . . . .

. . . . this one made me laugh out loud. The no-nothing, freak-faced co-respondent in Donnie's marriage is paid off by sending her out of the country.

[LetMyPeopleVote]

38. Welcome to DU

[tonekat]

30. Does the Shitgibbon

Just pick names out of a hat? How embarrassing!

[Harker]

33. I thought she already had the boobie prize. n/t

[FakeNoose]

34. This doesn't surprise me at all ... we're already the laughing stock of Europe

What could go wrong ....

[NJCher]

57. I saw

a nonverbal communication analysis of Macron with trump when the latter went to France. Macron treated him like the bore at a party. Not only did he look away, as in looking for someone more interesting to talk to, he bolted as soon as he spotted a possibility. Anything would be better than DonOld.

[zorbasd]

37. Greeks respond

δεν θέλουμε πόρνη! Oops doesn't like greek characters

den théloume pórni

We don't want hoes!

[Richard D]

39. The worst is yet to come . . . (nt)

[live love laugh]

41. My condolences to Greece.

[jgmiller]

45. This is mean of me but she does kind of look like Medusa so this might be appropriate

[Initech]

47. If Biden did this, the MAGAlodytes would be drawing up impeachment papers tomorrow.

[ificandream]

48. Only the best. LOL.

[Bengus81]

49. And....Greece announces 80% tariffs on goods going to the United States

[Kid Berwyn]

50. Gee. They were so happy the other day.

Diplomatic is in her brood. I mean, blood.

[GenThePerservering]

62. Geez, they're both cosplaying nt

[Montauk6]

51. Only a true Sopranos fan MAY get this reference...?

So, I guess this makes ol' Kimmy the Feech LaManna of the incoming Administration....

[cloudbase]

53. Nice consolation prize.

I guess Cameroon wasn't available.

[RainCaster]

54. How does Greece feel about this?

Do they feel at all insulted that we are sending our "best" envoy?

[D. Spaulding]

55. Was this the payoff

To keep her from spilling any negative info on the mini Trump who just jilted and embarrassed her?

[Schmice3]

58. Kudos to trump

She is already well-versed in Greek Culture. Perfect fit.

[LetMyPeopleVote]

59. Why Trump's new announcement about Kimberly Guilfoyle matters

For Trump, the former Fox News personality checks two boxes: She's both a television personality and someone with direct ties to his immediate family.

https://www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddow-show/maddowblog/trumps-new-announcement-kimberly-guilfoyle-matters-rcna183733

Once in a great while, however, the Republican president-elect is able to find someone who manages to check more than one box. NBC News reported:

President-elect Donald Trump said Tuesday that he would nominate former Fox News personality Kimberly Guilfoyle and his longtime billionaire friend Tom Barrack to be ambassadors to Greece and Turkey, respectively. ... In a separate post announcing his selection of her for ambassador to Greece, Trump referred to Guilfoyle, who announced in 2022 that she was engaged to his son Donald Trump Jr., as a yearslong ‘close friend and ally.’

I’m mindful of the latest reporting suggesting that Guilfoyle might no longer be engaged to the president-elect’s oldest son, but I neither know nor care about their personal lives.

What I do care about is the frequency with which Trump chooses people of dubious qualifications for prominent governmental posts based on their closeness to members of his family. The growing list now includes:

Charles Kushner, Ivanka Trump’s father-in-law, whom the president-elect intends to nominate as the next U.S. ambassador to France.
Massad Boulos, Tiffany Trump’s father-in-law, whom the president-elect tapped to serve as a senior White House adviser on Arab and Middle Eastern affairs.
Adam Boehler, Jared Kushner’s college roommate, whom the president-elect tapped to serve as the special U.S. envoy for hostage affairs.

And we can now add Guilfoyle, who was apparently close to Donald Trump Jr., to the mix.

The former Fox News personality, who does not appear to have any background in diplomacy, will require Senate confirmation. Watch this space.

[Crowman2009]

60. Given her IQ, I wonder if she'll start quoting lines from the movie musical "Grease".

[Richard D]

61. Ambassadorial privileges include no luggage inspection?

[nwliberalkiwi]

63. CEO

I wonder if Trump mite think her as CEO material. She may know too much!!!

[Sneederbunk]

64. Jr. finds more than one way to get rid of Kimberly.

[BidenRocks]

65. Is it possible for a country to

REFUSE to accept the portfolio of an ambassador?
France also.
