Trump's Cabinet Faces Scrutiny Over Sexual Misconduct Allegations
TL;DR Summary
President-elect Donald Trump has nominated several individuals facing sexual misconduct allegations for key administration positions, prioritizing loyalty over traditional norms. Despite the withdrawal of Matt Gaetz for attorney general due to Senate opposition, Trump continues to push for the confirmation of other controversial picks like Pete Hegseth and Robert F. Kennedy Jr. This approach reflects a broader shift in Republican circles where scandals are less disqualifying, a trend bolstered by past confirmations like that of Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh.
