Many of Trump’s most powerful friends were at Mar-a-Lago last night, probably prepared to get to work for him since it appears he will be returning to the White House.

People like Elon Musk, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Dana White, Vivek Ramaswamy, Lara Trump, Marjorie Taylor Greene, Alina Habba, Danica Patrick, Sarah Huckabee Sanders and many more were in the ‘Winter White House’ with Trump and running . partner JD Vance.

Perhaps no one is prepared to see his role expand more than Tesla and X CEO Musk, who has been offered an official title by Trump.

Musk, who has put it on his resume to become director of a new “Office of Government Efficiency” under a second Trump administration, said ordinary Americans would suffer some financial hardship if his plan were implemented.

It comes after he told the estimated 20,000 attendees at Trump’s rally at New York’s Madison Square Garden on Sunday: “Your money is being wasted.” We’re going to get the government off your back and out of your pocket.’

Howard Lutnick, president and CEO of financial services company Cantor Fitzgerald, who also leads the Trump 2024 Transition Team, introduced the X owner on stage at the conclusion of his speech.

Lutnick said Musk would soon become the head of a newly created Department of Government Efficiency, an agency whose initials stand for DOGE, the cryptocurrency Musk once promoted.

Musk’s cuts would reduce the budget by nearly a third and exceed this year’s deficit spending.

Kennedy, a former Democrat, has been promoted to several positions at the Department of Health.

Reports that the controversial former presidential candidate could be tapped for a position in the Trump White House have been circulating for weeks, with RFK tweeting that if appointed, he would “advise all US water systems to eliminate fluoride from public water.

It is unclear whether Trump supports this plan and he has yet to publicly state whether he would give Kennedy a position in his administration if he won.

However, the former president did say in a phone call with NBC: “Well, I haven’t talked to him about this yet, but it’s fine with me.”

While the names may not come from the traditional structure of the Democratic Party, people like Kennedy and former presidential candidate Tulsi Gabbard could also be elected to positions.

Ramaswamy, a Trump favorite who is running in the Republican primary in 2024, could be in line for many positions, including Commerce secretary, Homeland Security secretary or head of Health and Human Services. “Let’s bring it in,” Trump said at a rally in October.

Trump’s cabinet during his four years in the White House was characterized by an extraordinary level of tumult.

The richest cabinet in history, it was hit by a series of resignations amid investigative reports into the misuse of government planes, expensive furniture spending and other scandals.

Some long-serving members resigned in the wake of January 6. His last Attorney General described him as unfit for office.

If Trump is sworn in again on Jan. 20, he has made clear that he will bring in pro-MAGA loyalists who will implement the changes he has called for during the campaign.

Sarah Huckabee Sanders, now governor of Arkansas, served as press secretary during Trump's first term.

That means an Interior Secretary who will go ‘frack, frack, frack’ and an Attorney General who will shut down special counsel Jack Smith’s investigations into Trump.

Whoever fills Trump’s top foreign policy posts will face high expectations. Trump has said he could end Russia’s war against Ukraine and Israel’s war against Gaza before taking office.

Presidents often look to Congress to fill high-level agency positions, and Trump may well be tempted to look there again, although the nature of the Senate majority will be critical.

If Republicans win the House, as many experts predict, the size of the majority would determine whether Trump could eliminate a stalwart like Tom Cotton of Arkansas, a former Army officer mentioned as a possible defense secretary.

Ben Carson led the Department of Housing and Urban Development during Trump’s first term and has been loyal to the former president ever since.

The neurosurgeon could take another position in the administration if Trump is successful next week.

The US election is officially too close to call after the United States went to the polls in one of the most consequential political contests in history, but Donald Trump has a clear advantage.

In a huge push, Trump won the key states of North Carolina and Georgia. She also took a number of other states, including Texas, Florida and Iowa. Kamala Harris secured states such as California and Colorado.

Trump soared in betting markets as counting continued and the New York Times forecast suggested a 95 percent chance of a Republican victory.

North Carolina was called for Trump by the Associated Press at 11:19 p.m. ET. A little more than an hour later, he also called Georgia for Trump.

It came as Republicans celebrated retaking control of the Senate for the first time in four years.

That gives the party significant power to confirm the next president’s cabinet and any Supreme Court justice if there is a vacancy.

At Harris’ viewing party in Washington, DC, silence reigned and her supporters were seen hugging each other as they began to contemplate possible defeat.

In a memo seen by Dailymail.com, Harris campaign chair Jen O’Malley Dillon told staff: “It takes time for all votes to be counted, and all votes will be counted.” What we do know is that this race will not focus until the early hours of the morning.
