Donald Trump, 47th President of the United States, will be inaugurated in January 2025. Several members of his entourage could inherit influential positions at the White House.
Donald Trump was elected 47th president of the United States and negotiations over who could take part in his government began. The 78-year-old Republican, who will be reinvested on January 20, 2025, is surrounded by a close guard and several of its members could have a role to play in his future administration. First, Donald Trump could call members of his family. Among them, his daughter-in-law, Lara Trump, wife of Eric, his second son, and co-chair of the Republican National Committee, but Don Jr. Trump, eldest of Donald Trump's five children, who has been the most active in his campaign, reports The Parisian.
Another figure inseparable from the president-elect, Elon Musk, who actively financed the Republican candidate's campaign. He also took advantage of the sounding board of his social network, X, to share his conservative ideas. Donald Trump could entrust him with a mission to audit federal spending, with a view to “drastic” reforms. Robert Francis Kennedy Jr., nephew of the president assassinated in 1963, himself a candidate for election before lining up behind Trump, is also expected to be part of this government. A former Democrat, he has indicated that he is anti-vaccine on numerous occasions since Covid-19. Trump has indicated he could play a role in public health agencies such as the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the Food and Drug Safety Administration (FDA), the BBC reports.
For his part, Mike Pompeo, secretary of state during the first Trump administration and former congressman from Kansas, is tipped as one of the main candidates for the post of secretary of defense. He could work alongside Michael Waltz, a Florida lawmaker and military veteran who serves on the U.S. House of Representatives Armed Services Committee. Finally, among the profiles of Donald Trump's inner circle, that of Dan Scavino can be questioned. Responsible for social networks during the presidential campaign, he was the billionaire's golf caddy in the 1990s, that is to say the person who accompanies the player and who carries his bag in particular.
