Donald Trump Jr. has become a key adviser to his father, influencing cabinet appointments for Trump’s upcoming administration.

He is reportedly prioritizing loyalists over experienced candidates, backing controversial figures like Robert F. Kennedy Jr. for health secretary and Tulsi Gabbard for director of national intelligence, both of whom face Senate challenges.

Trump Jr. also played a role in selecting JD Vance as vice president-elect and blocking Mike Pompeo’s cabinet return.

Despite this, Trump’s reliance on family has lessened, due to a more structured team led by chief of staff Susie Wiles.
