Trump drops bombshell about two key players in his future White House team
Trump makes clear statement about Haley and Pompeoʼs roles in his upcoming administration. Former president moves forward with new picks while planning January inauguration details
In a direct-to-social-media message this weekend Donald Trump made it crystal-clear: Nikki Haley and Mike Pompeo wont be part of his next White House team. The president-elect shared kind words about their past work‚ but drew a firm line about future plans
The ex-president is busy putting together his admin team (meeting with possible picks like wall-street pro Scott Bessent who might get the Treasury spot). Its worth noting that Haley – who used to run South Carolina and was Trumps UN voice – backed him after dropping her own white-house run; while Pompeo who ran both State Department and CIA didnt even jump in the race last spring
I will not be inviting former Ambassador Nikki Haley‚ or former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo‚ to join the Trump Administration‚ which is currently in formation
Looking ahead to Jan-25‚ Trump picked some interesting co-chairs for his big day:
- Real-estate big-shot Steve Witkoff
- Ex-senator Kelly Loeffler
The social-media announcement fits Trumps style – heʼs known for making high-level staff picks through quick-fire online posts
