Donald Trump has not yet completed his Cabinet appointments but is focusing on nominees who demonstrate loyalty to him and a strong opposition to the "deep state." This approach has sparked debate over their qualifications. Recent nominations include Robert F. Kennedy Jr. for Health and Human Services, Matt Gaetz as attorney general, and Tulsi Gabbard for director of national intelligence. These choices align with Trump's campaign promises to disrupt traditional norms in Washington. Trump plans to significantly reduce the size of federal agencies, which could lead to mass firings and a chaotic administration. Many of his nominees lack experience in managing large agencies, suggesting a stark contrast to the previous administration.
