Last weekend we saw the absolute trivialization of institutions and the humiliation of everyone, politicians, businessmen, and pseudo-actors, who rushed to accept invitations to events so they could see and bow down to Kimberly Guilfoyle up close.
It is tragic that the elite, political, business, social, run like little children behind the singer of their choice, in order to secure a photo or a handshake with Ms. Guilfoyle.
Even if she had the talent and background to take on the position of American ambassador in Athens, the way she accepted to make her debut nullifies any possibility and intention of a serious mission. We said to go to a reception in her honor, but to start at the shop where a popular folk singer sings?
And lest we forget: Tom Barrack, whom Donald Trump appointed ambassador to Ankara, is a millionaire, a personal friend of the American President, who as soon as he arrived began to play rough, also taking over the supervision of Syria. Mr. Barrack practices diplomacy and directly intervenes in the formulation of US foreign policy, which de facto and due to his position is favorable to his country of accreditation, Turkey.
Let's hope that Ms. Guilfoyle's tenure in Athens will not be limited to social events and her participation in... cultural manifestations of the Athenian night.
