Trump's Team: Speculation Grows Over Key Administration Picks

TL;DR Summary
President-elect Trump is considering familiar faces for his national security team, focusing on businessmen and loyalists rather than former generals. Key contenders for Secretary of State include Richard Grenell, Bill Hagerty, and Robert O'Brien, while Mike Pompeo and Michael Waltz are potential picks for Defense Secretary. Trump aims to negotiate peace in Russia-Ukraine and the Middle East, with Jared Kushner possibly returning to government. The new team is expected to align closely with Trump's policies, unlike his first-term appointees.
