Just one week after winning the 2024 presidential election, President-elect Donald Trump and his transition team are moving quickly to fill key positions, and the pace has surprised political analysts.
Sen. Marco Rubio , Susie Wiles and Rep. Mike Waltz are all Republicans with Florida ties that have been selected to President-elect Donald Trump 's Cabinet.
“Having gone through the process of governing, they fully understand the time constraint and how quickly four years can go,” said Dr. Michael Binder, a political science professor at the University of North Florida. “They’re going to be ready to go right when the gun starts in January.” “A lot of people in Florida are moving around and packing their bags for D.C... It’s creating openings,” Binder explains. “Whether it’s a congressional seat or potentially a spot elsewhere in the state legislature...All those folks are going to have opportunities now to have their seats filled, others to climb up the ladder.”
Mullaney also predicts that more big names from Florida are expected to be considered for cabinet roles.
