Trump picks long-time allies for key White House positions ahead of 2025

Donald Trump made his first major staff picks for his potential next White House team picking two well-known faces from his previous administration (both have worked with him since his first run for president)

Steven Cheung who managed communications in Trumps election bid will become White House communications director; while Sergio Gor is set to lead the Presidential Personnel Office — these appointments show Trumpʼs preference for familiar team-members

Steven Cheung and Sergio Gor have been trusted advisors since my first presidential campaign in 2016‚ and have continued to champion America First principles

Trump statement on appointments

The appointments highlight Trumps strategy of building his future admin team: Cheung who worked as strategic-response director during Trumps time in office about 4 years ago brings significant experience to the role. Both new appointees have shown long-term loyalty to the ex-president dating back to his first White House run 8 years ago
