Summary

Donald Trump’s second-term appointments reveal four key factions shaping his administration.

“Deep State disruptors,” including Matt Gaetz, Tulsi Gabbard, and RFK Jr., aim to challenge government norms but may bring conflicting agendas.

“Border hardliners” like Stephen Miller and Kristi Noem focus on aggressive immigration policies, risking clashes with Democratic and Republican states.

“Tech libertarians” Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy plan massive government cuts, though Trump’s spending priorities may limit them. Lastly,

“China hawks” Marco Rubio and Mike Waltz signal a tough stance on Beijing, potentially complicating Trump’s inconsistent China strategy.

    When did being a sycophant mean being loyal, they are just leaches. The idea they stand for more then their own gain baffles me. They cant even make their own directions, its all from hot takes on facebook.

      Loyalty is too positive a description, they’re opportunists willing to do whatever it takes to get ahead except work together.
