President-elect Donald Trump is appointing loyalists to key positions in his second administration, marking a shift from his first term, which was marked by internal conflicts. Some nominees may face tough confirmation battles despite Republican control of the Senate. Notable appointments include Florida Senator Marco Rubio as Secretary of State, Florida Representative Matt Gaetz as Attorney General, and former Hawaii Representative Tulsi Gabbard as Director of National Intelligence. Trump is emphasizing loyalty over experience in these selections. Other key roles include Pete Hegseth as Defense Secretary and Kristi Noem as Homeland Security Secretary. Trump’s choices reflect his focus on a hardline immigration agenda and a strong alignment with his previous administration's policies.
