Former President Donald Trump is assembling his policy team with familiar faces from his first term and signaling they would have roles in his potential 2025 Republican presidential administration.
Trump and his allies have been meeting and talking by phone for months, sculpting the policies that will define his second term should he win the presidency in 2024. The names of the inner circle were revealed Friday in the latest effort by the Trump campaign to counter outside conservative organizations' efforts to vet and staff a future 2025 administration.
Among these aides are former trade representative Robert Lighthizer, former White House budget director Russell Vought, former Trump senior adviser Stephen Miller, known for his controversial immigration policy prescriptions, former Housing and Urban Development Secretary Ben Carson, and former Director of National Intelligence John Ratcliffe, his campaign confirmed to the Washington Examiner after they were reported by the Wall Street Journal.
Others on the team are former Chairman of the Council of Economic Advisers Kevin Hassett, former acting Director of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement Tom Homan, National Border Patrol Council President Brandon Judd, previous national security adviser to former Vice President Mike Pence Keith Kellogg, and former acting Attorney General Matt Whitaker.

The A Team!
I liked Richard Grendel and hope he will be there as well.
Me too - he did a great job!
My thought exactly! Might be a few more names come to mind but this is encouraging. I think one thing Trump really has learned since leaving office is how many people screwed him over and how few can be trusted.
the one he needs back the most is Peter Navarro, and it would really behoove trump to bring back steve bannon, too ...
...also Kash,

I have been saying this for months. And he needs to have cabinet meetings and make it look like he is actually president.
Awesome A++++
They are all my favorites!
Trump will never learn with Ben dumb as a box of rocks Carson. Ben has no more idea whats going on than Biden. He never thought about running for office until some anonymous persons raised over 10 million to recruit him to run. Of course Ben never saw any of that cash. Ben is still thinking about talking about having real discussions about discussing the real problems with real discussions about defining what the real problems are in this country to begin to find real solutions about our problems. . . And so on
Dr. Carson is highly intelligent and effective in communicating solutions that will help urban inner city kids rise to accomplishments and greatness. You however, seem to be equivalent to that “box of rocks” in your flawed evaluation of this great man.
I believe when history is written, long after you and I are gone, that one of his greatest accomplishments they will credit him with was exposing Uni Party Deep State people.
FYI the name is Grenell.
I think Steve is best on the outside reporting…journalist commentary. I never liked the crossover between journalist vs political operative. It allows propaganda to be fed to the people. I remember this started blatantly in our face with George Stephanopolis (sp) during Clinton years.
Ben Carson saved children’s lives. He even operated on babies while they were still in the womb! Hardly the actions of someone who is “dumb as a box of rocks”. Please show him some respect.
I can live with that.
