Summary

Donald Trump’s second-term cabinet is criticized as a disjointed team unified only by loyalty to him, rather than qualifications or ideology.

The picks include controversial figures like Pam Bondi as attorney general, Pete Hegseth as defense secretary, and Robert F. Kennedy Jr. for an environmental role, raising concerns about conflicts and competence.

While some selections, like Marco Rubio for secretary of state, appear conventional, others reflect Trump’s focus on personal fealty and populist goals, including mass deportations and deregulation.

Critics expect chaos and impulsive governance similar to his first term.

    Calling RFK’s position “an environmental role” is total bullshit. It’s to head the Department of Health and Human Services, which oversees everything in government related to healthcare.

    That’s right, we’re likely getting a true believer in such classics as vaccines cause autism and HIV doesn’t lead to AIDS, as the Healthcare Boss.
