Trump Allies Compete for Cabinet Positions

Following Donald Trump's election victory, his allies are aggressively competing for key positions in his new administration, despite Trump's superstitious tendencies leading him to avoid discussions on appointments until now. Loyalists are reaching out to Trump's inner circle, hoping to secure influential roles as key announcements are anticipated soon. Transition heads have already met with potential candidates, reflecting Trump's intention to reward those who supported him during his campaign. Notable contenders for significant positions include hedge fund investors and former officials known for their alignment with Trump's policies, particularly in economic and national security roles. Trump's administration is expected to prioritize loyalty and eliminate officials who might oppose his agenda, setting the stage for a markedly different approach compared to his previous term. Additionally, discussions are ongoing regarding high-profile figures like Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Elon Musk potentially joining the administration.
