Trump's new White House team reflects shift towards populism and billionaire allies
Donald Trump celebrated his election victory at Mar-a-Lago with billionaire allies, including Elon Musk. This time, Trump’s inner circle is more aligned with the new right, featuring loyalists and wealthy supporters rather than traditional Republican figures. Trump appointed Susie Wiles as his chief of staff, signaling a shift towards a more populist agenda. His administration aims to quickly implement policies on immigration, taxes, and tariffs, reflecting a departure from the establishment approach of his first term. Key figures in Trump’s new team include JD Vance as vice president and various billionaires vying for cabinet positions. The administration is expected to prioritize loyalty and align closely with Trump's vision, contrasting with the more moderate influences of 2016.
