Initially, Pompeo was considered for the post of Secretary of Defense. However, in July, he shared plans for Ukraine that involved sending more ammunition and targeting Russia’s energy sector. Observers noted on Saturday that these plans contradicted Trump’s campaign statements.
Meanwhile, Haley, who later supported Trump’s presidency, initially criticized him heavily during the party primaries.
“I was proud to work with President Trump defending America at the United Nations,” Haley said on social media. “I wish him, and all who serve, great success in moving us forward to a stronger, safer America over the next four years.”
Who will join Trump’s cabinet?
Trump is conducting meetings with potential members of his cabinet before he takes office on January 20.Â
So far, Trump has made only one cabinet appointment naming his campaign manager Susie Wiles — who he calls “ice baby” due to her supposedly unflappable temperament — as his White House chief of staff.
Her appointment as White House Chief of Staff would make her the first woman to hold this crucial position.Â
Trump met with prominent investor Scott Bessent, who is a potential US Treasury Secretary nominee, according to Reuters news agency’s report.
During his first term as president, Trump made some cabinet appointments public via social media posts.
