Rubio Refuses Questions on Guilfoyle's Alleged $100,000 Donor Ask in Athens

Summary
Athens reporters pressed Marco Rubio over a Wall Street Journal report alleging Ambassador Kimberly Guilfoyle sought help with a $100,000 credit card bill, and he flatly refused to engage.
Rubio, with Guilfoyle standing nearby, said he had not reviewed the report and rejected answering allegations on a foreign-country tarmac, telling reporters he was "not playing this game."
The Journal allegation centers on Trump donor Eric Deters, who Guilfoyle allegedly asked to cover the bill shortly before her Senate confirmation hearing.
The report also alleges Guilfoyle offered access to administration officials in return, raising fresh scrutiny around the U.S. ambassador to Greece.
