Donald Trump's 2024 campaign, marked by a cultural stance against 'wokeness,' is also testing his ability to shield controversial Cabinet nominees from sexual misconduct allegations. His picks, including Matt Gaetz, Pete Hegseth, and Robert Kennedy Jr., face scrutiny but may benefit from Trump's history of evading lasting political damage despite similar accusations. The nominations reflect a broader political climate shaped by the #MeToo movement and a shift in public perception regarding allegations of misconduct.
