An associate of Grenell had approached conservative social media influencers, according to two people with knowledge of the situation, offering paid contracts of as much as five figures to post favorably about Grenell. This illustrates the lengths to which people close to Grenell went to ensure he got the job.
Grenell's rejection of offers for high-ranking positions like director of national intelligence indicates his strong ambition for the role of secretary of State, which he had campaigned hard for.
When seeking comment on the allegations regarding influencer endorsements, Grenell dismissed the reporter as an 'unserious gossip reporter' and asserted, 'None of this is true.' His steadfast denial underscores his rejection of claims made about his ambitions.
Despite not being nominated for secretary of State, there remains a possibility that Trump may offer Grenell another high-ranking position, reflecting Grenell's status as a loyal Trump supporter.
