Following Donald Trump’s victory in the US presidential elections, discussions have arisen regarding the potential names to be included in the cabinet of the new president. The most anticipated names in Trump’s cabinet are those of the Secretary of State, Secretary of Defense, Secretary of Treasury, Attorney General, and National Security Advisor. With the majority of Senate now consisting of Republicans, the confirmation process for cabinet members is expected to be quicker this time.
The question of “Who will be in Trump’s cabinet?” started circulating in public opinion after the presidential elections won by Trump on November 5th, in the US. The most awaited positions in Trump’s upcoming cabinet are the Secretary of State, Secretary of Defense, Secretary of Treasury, Attorney General, and National Security Advisor.
Approximately 4,000 positions are awaiting appointment under the new president Trump, out of which around 1,200 are subject to Senate confirmation. Trump, who took office in 2016, faced delayed confirmation processes for many nominees due to the majority of Democrats in the Senate.
In addition to the mentioned names, American media outlets report that Mike Pompeo, who previously served as Secretary of State under Trump and CIA Director, is expected to be nominated for a similar position in the new cabinet. Trump’s close ally Marco Rubio, who served as a Florida Senator, is also being considered for the role of Secretary of State.
Furthermore, Tom Cotton, Robert O’Brien, Ric Grenell, and Bill Hagerty are among the names speculated for Secretary of State or National Security Advisor. Mike Pompeo and Tom Cotton are also being considered for the position of Secretary of Defense, according to the American media.
Names like Mike Waltz, Jay Clayton, Larry Kudlow, and John Paulson are also mentioned in connection with various cabinet positions under Trump. Additionally, there are speculations about Robert F. Kennedy, Susie Wiles, Brooke Rollins, Kevin McCarthy, and Mike Lee joining Trump’s new cabinet in different roles.
