Trump's Cabinet shake-up follows Lutnick's comments on RFK Jr. role

Howard Lutnick, a billionaire and potential Treasury Secretary under Donald Trump, reportedly caused a stir by stating Robert F. Kennedy Jr. would not receive a Cabinet position. This led to Trump's decision to appoint Kennedy as Secretary of Health and Human Services. Lutnick's comments upset Trump's team, as they felt it was premature to dismiss Kennedy's chances. Trump and Kennedy have discussed health policy roles, indicating a shift in Kennedy's potential position within the administration. Despite skepticism from some Republicans, Trump is confident in his Cabinet picks and does not view them as trial balloons for less controversial nominees. The administration expects these appointments to be confirmed.
