Trump celebrates election victory at Mar-a-Lago as concerns rise over cabinet picks

Donald Trump celebrated his election victory at Mar-a-Lago, where he announced former congressman Matt Gaetz as his pick for attorney general. This choice comes amid ongoing investigations into Gaetz's alleged misconduct, raising concerns among some Republican senators about his confirmation. Trump's transition team is facing challenges as he opts for unvetted candidates, prioritizing loyalty over traditional vetting processes. This approach has led to worries about the confirmation of Gaetz and other nominees, including Pete Hegseth for defense secretary, who also faces past allegations. Despite these issues, the atmosphere at the gala was festive, with high-profile guests like Elon Musk and Sylvester Stallone in attendance. Trump’s selections have sparked debate within the party, as some worry about the implications of his choices for key positions in the new administration.
