U.S. President-elect Donald Trump virtually ended his second term of appointment by naming Brooke Rollins as Secretary of Agriculture.

Just 17 days after the election was confirmed, the formation of the cabinet was completed following the staff.

Let's look at the aspects of the people who will form the next administration as keywords.

The first one is 'Loyalist.'

It's a force that has consistently assisted Trump.

Examples include Vice President-elect "Bence," who was his running mate during the presidential election, and "Soozy Wiles," who was named White House chief of staff.

In the Cabinet, Pam Bondi, nominated for the controversial post of attorney general, is classified as a major loyalist.

During the 2016 presidential election, he publicly supported Trump and served as a defense team when he was impeached in 2020.

And Tesla CEO Elon Musk, who has become Trump's closest aide in the presidential election, has been tapped as the head of the government's efficiency department.

But the other thing they have in common is 'yes man'.

Analysts say that President Trump will not tackle his actions and follow them unconditionally.

As a result, there are concerns that there may be no people who control President Trump like former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo during the first administration.

The second is 'Keeping China in check'.

Marko Rubio, the nominee for secretary of state to lead U.S. foreign policy, is well known as a popular hardliner, co-sponsored the Uighur Forced Labor Prevention Act in 2020.

Howert Rutnick and Scott Bessent, who are nominated for the Secretary of Commerce and the Secretary of the Treasury respectively, are well-known customs officers.

They say we should check China through economic policies.

As those who have explicitly insisted on "checking China" take over as the head of diplomacy and trade, some point out that the U.S.-China conflict during Trump's first term may be rekindled.

The last keyword is 'Fox News'.

Several people who have been active in Fox News, a conservative media company, have been selected in this administration.Defense Secretary nominee Pete Hegseth and Transport Secretary nominee Sean Duffy are both former Fox News hosts after allegations of misconduct and qualifications at


In addition, many cabinet and staff nominees have appeared on Fox News as panelists or commentators.

In addition, one of the characteristics is that there are many relatively "young" people under 50s.

The average age of a total of 22 ministerial-level officials in Trump's second cabinet and the White House is about 56 years old.

In addition, the proportion of female appointments at the ministerial level is 36%, and the aspect of strengthening female appointments compared to the first period is also noticeable.
