Trump builds loyal team for cabinet as he reshapes executive branch vision
President-elect Donald Trump is quickly appointing cabinet nominees who align closely with his vision for the executive branch. This approach marks a shift from his 2016 selections, which included more traditional Republican figures. In contrast to his first term, when Trump faced conflicts with some cabinet members, his current choices reflect his strengthened position within the Republican Party. He is prioritizing loyalty and shared goals over diversity of opinion. Notable picks include individuals for key positions like Health and Human Services and Defense, indicating a focus on reinforcing his message and agenda.
