Trump Assembles Hawkish Team with Rubio and Waltz for Key Roles

Donald Trump is assembling a hawkish national security team, with Marco Rubio and Mike Waltz expected to take key roles. Rubio, a foreign policy hawk, is likely to be named Secretary of State, while Waltz, a China hawk, is set to become National Security Adviser. This team marks a shift from Trump's previous isolationist stance, focusing on ending conflicts in Ukraine and Gaza to refocus on China. Rubio's past criticisms of Trump have turned into support, suggesting a smooth confirmation process, unlike other potential candidates.
