My choice for Secretary of Defense - Mike Waltz.
WHITE HOUSE CHIEF OF STAFF:
Susie Wiles has been chosen by President Trump. Susan Wiles (born in NJ 1957) has been a political consultant serving President Trump's successful 2024 presidential campaign. She previously worked on his 2016 campaign as well as Ronald Reagan's 1980 campaign.
SECRETARY OF TREASURY:
Scott Bessent seems to be the top choice. His bio at Wikipedia.
Larry Kudlow is another candidate for head of treasury. He is a financial news commentator for Fox Business and served as the Director of the National Economic Council for Trump from 2018 to 2021. Kudlow would be my choice.
DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE:
Linda McMahon seems to be the top choice. Supporting Trump as a president elect and donor previously, this time she co-led a transition team to help vet personnel and draft policy for the Nov 5th election. Born in 1948 in North Carolina, she is an accomplished political and business executive as well as a retired professional wrestling magnate.
SECRETARY OF STATE:
Richard Grenell, top choice. He served as acting Director of National Intelligence (DNI) under President Trump in 2020. He served as US Ambassador to Germany from 2018-2020. During G.W. Bush administration he was spokesperson to the United Nations. He has also contributed to Fox News. He has been the center of several controversies when dealing with foreign leaders, presenting a 'caustic' personality. NOT my choice.
Robert O'Brien. Served as Trump's 4th and final national security advisor during his first term and has maintained a close relationship with Trump, often speaking on national security concerns. He has maintained close contact with foreign leaders and met Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu in Israel in May 2024. He is more 'hawkish' than other Trump advisors. He supported military aid for Ukraine against many of his Republican associates. He has advocated banning TikTok in United States. NOT my choice.
Bill Hagerty. U.S. Senator for Tennessee, considered a top contender for Secretary of State. He served as US Ambassador to Japan in first Trump administration. His ideology and policies are mostly with those of Trump. Worked as economic advisor for President G.W. Bush. Co-founder of Hagerty Peterson & Company investment firm. My first choice. See Bill Hagerty On the Issues.
Marco Rubio, my 2nd choice. A US Senator for Florida and 2016 Republican presidential candidate, his policies are close to those of Trump. Rubio and Hagerty were contenders to be Trump's 2024 running mate. While in the Senate he has been involved in foreign affairs. Before being Senator, he was Speaker of the House from 2006 to 2008. See On The Issues.
SECRETARY OF HOMELAND SECURITY:
Tom Homan. Former police officer who served during first Trump administration. Acting Director of US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) from 2017 to 2018. He was among the most fervent opponents of separating children from their parents. He has been a Fox News contributor. Most likely will be Trump's choice and also my choice.
