Donald Trump Jr. and Kimberly Guilfoyle (click here) are making moves to expand their influence at the Republican National Committee, three GOP sources, including advisers to the President tell CNN. Some sources say they may seek to take over the party structure themselves.
President Donald Trump’s eldest son and his girlfriend, a Trump campaign fundraiser and former Fox News host, have made it clear to campaign and White House officials they are unhappy with RNC chairwoman Ronna McDaniel, who they view as not having done enough to win a close race.
Trump Jr. and Guilfoyle could seek leadership roles at the RNC to position the committee for a comeback run for the President in 2024, the sources said.
“Don Jr. and Kimberly have an eye on the RNC, through themselves taking over or somebody close to them taking over,” a well-placed Republican Party source close to the White House said....
Power grabs should never be received well in politics. The campaign trail is a proving ground and service is the proof of a legislator loyal to the USA Constitution with the well being of it's citizens in mind.
All of them should consider self-imposed exile.

The autopsies have begun on Donald Trump’s loss to Joe Biden, (click here) and a lengthy report by Politico this weekend spotlighted Kimberly Guilfoyle’s role as a fund-raiser, which insiders told the publication was lacking in both discipline and professionalism.
The former Fox News host and one-time first lady of San Francisco is Donald Trump Jr.’s girlfriend and a senior campaign adviser, who was tasked with being one of the president’s top fundraisers. Under Guilfoyle’s leadership, Trump’s finance team “couldn’t compete with Biden’s small-dollar fundraising machine,” Politico reported.
Not only did Guilfoyle “underperform” in the fundraising job, senior campaign officials told Politico she was “an H.R. nightmare.”
“Some donors were horrified by what they described as Guilfoyle’s lack of professionalism: She frequently joked about her sex life and at one fundraiser, offered a lap dance to the donor who gave the most money,” Politico wrote.
Politico’s report is the latest investigative story to allege that Guilfoyle, 51, talked or acted in sexually suggestive ways in a workplace setting.
In early October, the New Yorker followed up on reporting by HuffPost that described the reasons for Guilfoyle’s abrupt departure from Fox News in June 2018. At the time, the popular explanation for her departure was that she left voluntarily to avoid conflicts of interest posed by her new romance with Trump Jr.
The New Yorker story, by investigative reporter Jane Mayer, suggested that Guilfoyle had to leave because of sexual harassment allegations made by a former assistant in a 42-page draft complaint. According to the allegations, Guilfoyle showed lewd photos of male genitalia to colleagues, regularly discussed sexual matters at work, urged the assistant “to submit to a Fox employee’s demands for sexual favors,” and exposed herself to the assistant and asked for a critique of her naked body.
The story furthermore described efforts by Guilfoyle to cover up the allegations, citing well-informed sources who said the network paid the former assistant up to $4 million to avoid a trial.
In response, Guilfoyle issued a statement saying, “In my 30-year career working for the SF District Attorney’s Office, the LA District Attorney’s Office, in media and in politics, I have never engaged in any workplace misconduct of any kind.”...
