Kristi Noem adamantly denies to Megyn Kelly the rumors that she was having an affair with Trump staffer Corey Lewandowski. Whether Mr. Lewandowski remains permanently banished from Mr. Trump’s orbit remains to be seen.

Aides to Mr. Trump insist this latest incident is different, particularly because it involves a donor to the former president.
