President Trump Announces 2025 Transition Team
President Trump Announces 2025 Transition Team
By Sundance
With the announcement of the 2025 transition team well in advance, you might note that President Donald Trump is taking a much more aggressive stance on the vetting of potential members of his administration. This is a critical and necessary proactive plan; it should be considered a very good sign.
President Trump has appointed Linda McMahon and Howard Lutnick as co-chairs of the transition team. However, President Trump has also appointed JD Vance, Donald Trump Jr and Eric Trump as honorary chairs, likely with veto authority over any staffing recommendation.
Linda McMahon and Howard Lutnick provide a solid, intelligent, pragmatic and emotionally disconnected perspective. There is a strong likelihood both Co-Chairs understand how the DC system and IC will respond to a 2024 victory and position the attack in 2025.
As the primary voice who advocated to put JD Vance into position, Donald Trump Jr has found his passion in politics, strongly believes Vance will be the 2028 candidate, and seems to be positioning himself to be the VP on the ’28 Vance ticket.
Eric Trump is the silent, stable, strategic and smart apple closest to the tree. A few smart people might have noted something missing in the video of President Trump voting in the Florida primary a few days ago.
First Lady Melania Trump will likely be far less prominent in a successful second term. Given a confluence of events before Butler, PA, and in the lead up to the GOP convention, it was very obvious that Melania Trump was intentionally extracting Baron Trump away from U.S. politics.
I don’t usually entertain speculation media, but the recent storyline on Page Six aligns with the visible data. If Baron attends New York University, it makes sense that protective Melania (and her sister) would want to be close. With all of this in mind, now we have greater context for the 2025 staffing series which will continue again, starting with three of four important positions inside Main Justice.
