Trump Weighs in on Kimberly Guilfoyle Allegations as Odds Rise for Exit
Trump told reporters that he may fire Guilfoyle as prediction-market odds of her exit this year rise.
President Donald Trump expressed concern on Monday about U.S. Ambassador to Greece Kimberly Guilfoyle amid allegations of improper conduct, suggesting she could be fired from her position. The odds of her being removed from her post by the end of the year have risen significantly, according to prediction market sites Kalshi and Polymarket.
Senate Majority Whip John Barrasso stated he expected an investigation into the matter due to its "concerning" nature. Guilfoyle has been accused of asking a Republican donor for $100,000 for her credit card statement and allegedly engaging in luxury travel, as well as forming relationships with Greek business figures. Her attorney denied the allegations, stating the money was for services provided before her nomination, while her relationship with Donald Trump Jr. was brought up in the investigation.
Trump's comments and the rising odds of her removal suggest the administration sees real exposure from these allegations.
