Trump Jr.’s girlfriend Kimberly Guilfoyle tests positive for coronavirus

One of President Trump’s top campaign fundraisers — and the girlfriend of his eldest son — tested positive for coronavirus on Friday in South Dakota hours before the president gave a speech at Mount Rushmore.

Kimberly Guilfoyle, who’s been dating Donald Trump, Jr., since 2019, had been expected to attend Trump’s raucous Rushmore rally before receiving the diagnosis.

“After testing positive, Kimberly was immediately isolated to limit any exposure,” said Sergio Gor, chief of staff to the Trump Victory Finance Committee, which Guilfoyle chairs.

“She’s doing well, and will be retested to ensure the diagnosis is correct since she’s asymptomatic, but as a precaution will cancel all upcoming events,” Gor added. “Donald Trump Jr was tested negative, but as a precaution is also self isolating and is canceling all public events.”

A Trump campaign aide said Guilfoyle and Trump, Jr. did not travel to the rally with the president onboard Air Force One. The couple was expected to drive home from South Dakota to avoid spreading COVID-19, the aide added.

Guilfoyle, 51, is a former Fox News personality and the ex-wife of California Gov. Gavin Newsom, a Democrat.

Despite Giulfoyle’s positive test, neither President Trump nor any of his family members wore face masks during the Friday night rally, even though they stood and sat close together. Face mask usage was also sparse in the packed crowd.

It’s unclear when Guilfoyle contracted the virus.

She attended last month’s much-maligned Trump rally in Tulsa, Okla., which resulted in several Secret Service agents and low-level campaign staffers coming down with the virus.

The Guilfoyle incident isn’t the first time COVID-19 has made it into Trump’s inner circle.

In March, Trump was pictured next to a Brazilian government aide who tested positive for the virus days later.

The White House says Trump is tested regularly and has only had negative results.

Trump continues to downplay the severity of the virus, claiming it will “just disappear” even as it’s resurging across the country, with at least 30 states seeing sharp upticks in infection rates while the U.S. death toll approaches 130,000.

The president didn’t address the worsening pandemic or Guilfoyle’s positive test during his gloomy Friday night speech.

Instead, he took aim at mounting calls for the removal of statues honoring the Confederacy and other racist structures from American history.

“There is a new far-left fascism that demands absolute allegiance,” Trump said. “This left-wing cultural revolution is designed to overthrow the American revolution.”
