From vaccine sceptic whose brain was ‘eaten by worm’ to senator who shot her own dog – meet Trump’s maverick top team

THEY are all the President’s men and women – the mavericks and hardliners who will do Donald Trump’s political bidding. Gathered in Washington DC for his inauguration on Monday, his Cabinet and other appointees were in the spotlight. With a fresh and decisive mandate from the American people, Trump has picked a motley collection of politicians, business folk and tech bros to implement his radical agenda.

Robert F Kennedy Jnr – a perma-tanned vaccine sceptic who claims part of his brain was eaten away by a worm – wouldn’t be everyone’s idea of a Health Secretary. Donald J Trump does politics differently. Who else would put a senator who boasted of shooting her dog in charge of Homeland Security?.

But Donald J Trump does politics differently. Who else would put a senator who boasted of shooting her pet dog in charge of Homeland Security?. Vowing to fight “woke culture”, plug America’s southern border and roll back Net Zero policies, the President has picked a Cabinet he believes will bulldoze Washington vested interests.

In most cases the appointments will need to pass a Senate vote before taking up their new roles. So are they really the Top Trumps needed to create a more prosperous, safer and fairer America?. You decide. Vice President. VANCE once said Trump could be “America’s Hitler” and labelled him “dangerous” and “unfit” for office.
