Trump only surrounds himself with yes-men: who will be his first opponent?
Berlin – alarm mood in the White House!Donald Trump, the 47th President of the United States, is planning his major comeback attempt to regain power in January. While his team roster is still incomplete, the first names he surrounds himself with make one thing clear: doubts are unwelcome here. There are no colleagues who want to shake the captain or even take the helm themselves!
The personnel policies are a powerful sign of Trump's extreme loyalty - especially during his tumultuous period after his first presidency. Each nominee brings the ability to vocally support Trump's belief that Joe Biden's 2020 victory was a fraud. Nothing works here without the “America First” doctrine! Starting with immigration policy with the radical trio: Kristi Noem will head the Department of Homeland Security, flanked by immigration architect Stephen Miller and border protection chief Tom Homan. This team is committed to deporting millions of illegal immigrants and will act with unified strength.
Unwavering troops
The other personal details speak volumes. Marco Rubio, who will be appointed secretary of state, brings extensive experience from the Senate. Elise Stefanik, a Harvard graduate and former adviser to Bush, will become ambassador to the UN and is considered one of the most senior Republican women in the House of Representatives. Mike Waltz, a trained crisis manager with multiple combat deployments, is the new national security adviser, while Lee Zeldin, a Trump stalwart, will lead the Environmental Protection Agency. They all have one thing in common: They are loud in their criticism of their big rival China and are firmly behind the Trump thesis that Europe is dancing on the USA's nose!
An unmistakable message: Trump only surrounds himself with yes-men! The moderate conservatives had already warned before the election that doubts would not be tolerated. The president will want to quickly implement his program to transform the nation with the midterm elections just two years away. The only exciting question remains: which members will Trump clash with first? It'll be a miracle if that doesn't happen!
