Donald Trump's cabinet picks feature loyalists and controversial figures aligned with his policy goals
According to report from Washington donald trump, who is now the President-elect of the United States, is handing top roles for his future white house to a mix of political allies, firebrands and a few relatively conventional figures. Following his election victory over Vice President Kamala Harris, trump, each day is making a flurry of picks for his cabinet and other high-ranking administration positions.Meanwhile trump defeated Harris, the Democratic candidate, in the november 5 presidential election after promising Americans he would impose steep tariffs on all imports, with higher ones aimed at Chinese goods, and signalled much softer support for ukraine in its war against Russia. Harris’ loss came after Biden was forced to step aside in the race because of concerns that at 81 he was too old for another term. Trump’s republican party also won control of both houses of the US Congress, giving him additional power to push through measures on trade and other issues.Moreover a former federal prosecutor, Blanche has been a key figure on Trump’s defence team both in the New York case that ended in a conviction in May and the federal cases brought by Justice Department special counsel Jack Smith. If confirmed as deputy attorney general by the Republican-led Senate, Blanche would manage the day-to-day operations of the sprawling Justice Department, which trump has vowed to radically overhaul.
