The cabinet of Donald Trump will replace Barack Obama's cabinet when each nominee is confirmed by the United States Senate and administered the oath of office, on or after January 20, 2017. Before confirmation, a high level career member of an executive department heads this pre-confirmed cabinet on an acting basis. The cabinet's creation is part of the transition of power following the 2016 United States presidential election.

All members of the cabinet require the advice and consent of the United States Senate following appointment by the president prior to taking office. The vice presidency is exceptional in that the position requires election to office pursuant to the United States Constitution. Although some are afforded cabinet-level rank, non-cabinet members within the Executive Office of the President, such as White House Chief of Staff, National Security Advisor, and White House Press Secretary, do not hold constitutionally created positions and most do not require Senate confirmation for appointment.
The following have been named as Cabinet appointees by the President-elect. For other high-level positions, see the list of Donald Trump political appointments.

Due to Trump's lack of government or military experience and fluid ideological and political positions,[1] much interest existed among the media over his cabinet nominations, as they are believed to show how Trump intends to govern.
Trump's proposed cabinet was characterized as being very conservative by the media. It was described as a "conservative dream team" by Politico,[2] "the most conservative cabinet [in United States history]" by Newsweek,[3] and "one of the most consistently conservative domestic policy teams in modern history" by the Los Angeles Times.[4] The Hill described Trump's potential cabinet as "an unorthodox team" popular with conservatives, that more establishment Republicans such as John McCain or Mitt Romney likely would not have chosen.[5] CNN agreed, calling the proposed cabinet "a conservative dream team of domestic Cabinet appointments."[6] On the other hand, The Wall Street Journal stated that "it’s nearly impossible to identify a clear ideological bent in the incoming president’s" cabinet nominations.[7]
The Wall Street Journal also stated that Trump's nominations signaled a pro-deregulation administration policy.[8] The media also noted the fact that several of Trump's cabinet nominees politically opposed the federal departments they were selected to lead.[9]
The Washington Post noted that Trump's cabinet is the wealthiest in modern American history in terms of total personal wealth.[10]
According to NPR, Trump's cabinet is made more largely of nominees who have business experience and minimal experience in the government when compared to the administrations of Ronald Reagan, George H.W. Bush, Bill Clinton, George W. Bush and Barack Obama.[11]
التاريخ
Choosing members of the presidential Cabinet (and other high-level positions) is a complicated process, which begins prior to the November 2016 general election results being known. In the case of the Trump'16 campaign, his former rival for the Republican nomination Chris Christie was appointed to lead the transition team in May 2016, shortly after Ted Cruz and John Kasich suspended their campaigns (thus making Trump the presumptive nominee of the party). In addition to various other responsibilities, the transition team is responsible for making preliminary lists of potential executive branch appointees—at least for the several dozen high-level positions if not for the several thousand lower-level positions—and doing some early vetting work on those people. The transition team also hires policy experts (over 100 in the case of the Trump transition team by October 2016), using primarily federal funds and federal office space, to help plan how the hypothetical-at-the-time future Trump administration will implement their policy-goals via the various federal agencies and departments.
After the election in November 2016, when the Trump/Pence ticket defeated the Clinton/Kaine ticket as well as various third party opponents, the transition team was quickly reshuffled and expanded; Mike Pence was given the lead role (over Chris Christie), and several additional top-level transition personnel were added to the transition effort, most of them from the now-finished campaign effort. During the remainder of 2016, the team continued finding and vetting potential nominees for the various positions, as the Electoral College process was ongoing (including recounts in some states where the winning margin was relatively tiny) and prior to the presidential inauguration in January 2017.
President-elect Trump announced his first post-election Cabinet nominee, Jeff Sessions for the role of United States Attorney General, on November 18, 2016. (Trump had earlier announced Mike Pence as his pick for vice-presidential running mate in July 2016, which was shortly thereafter confirmed by the delegates to the Republican National Convention when they officially nominated first Trump and then Pence.) Although most positions were simultaneously under consideration by the transition team, the official announcement of offers, and the public acceptance of the offers, usually happens gradually as slots are filled (Richard Nixon being the exception).

Possible candidates for open Cabinet positions
After election day, media outlets reported on persons described by various sources as possible appointments to senior positions in the incoming Trump presidency. The number of people which have received media attention as potential cabinet appointees is higher than in most previous presidential elections, partly because the Trump'16 campaign staff (and associated PACs) was significantly smaller and less expensive,[16] thus there are not as many people already expected to receive specific roles in the upcoming Trump administration. In particular, "Trump ha[d] a smaller policy brain trust [policy group] than a new president normally carries"[17] because as an anti-establishment candidate who began his campaign by largely self-funding his way to the Republican party nomination,[18] unlike most previous presidential winners "Trump does not have the traditional cadre of Washington insiders and donors to build out his Cabinet."[19] An additional factor that tends to make the field of potential nominees especially broad, is that unlike most presidential transition teams who select politicians as their appointees, the Trump transition team "has started with a mandate to hire from the private sector [as opposed to the governmental sector] whenever possible."[19]
Until the Trump Administration announces their official cabinet, and those nominees are confirmed by the Senate (where applicable), this page will continue to be updated with new information and potential positions. The membership of the presidential cabinet also tends to evolve during the course of the presidency; turnover often causes individual names to change, and more rarely, creation of new departments and merging/downsizing of existing departments can alter the size of the cabinet.

Possible candidates for Cabinet-level officials
Cabinet-level officials have positions that are considered to be of Cabinet level, but which are not part of the Cabinet. Which exact positions are considered part of the presidential cabinet, can vary with the president. The CIA and FEMA were cabinet-level agencies under Bill Clinton, but not George W. Bush. The head of the Office of National Drug Control Policy (aka the drug czar) was a cabinet-level position under both Bill Clinton and George W. Bush, but not under Barack Obama. (Not to be confused with the head of the DEA, who has remained in the org chart underneath the cabinet position held by the Attorney General.) Designation of an agency as being cabinet-level requires[بحاجة لمصدر] that Congress enact legislation, although executive orders unilaterally created by the president can be used to create many other types of position inside the executive branch.[بحاجة لمصدر] Members of the cabinet proper, as well as cabinet-level officials, meet with the president in a room adjacent to the Oval Office.
Chair of the Council of Economic Advisers
In addition to the chair, there are two other members of the council (also appointed by the president), as well as a staff of economists, researchers, and statisticians. Historically, appointees to chair the council have held Ph.Ds in economics, and the role of the group is to provide advice in the form of economic analysis with respect to policy, as distinct from shaping economic policy per se.[58][59]
Trump released a list of his campaign's official economic advisers in August 2016,[60] which simultaneously was anti-establishment[61] and therefore lean on those with governmental experience,[62] yet at the same time aimed to include some of the elites of business and finance,[60] people with well-known names. Many of the names on the original list, or on the subsequent expansions thereof,[63] received media attention as potential appointees to the Council of Economic Advisers, or in other Trump administration roles.

Dan DiMicco | Former CEO of Nucor (largest steel producer in the United States),[21] originally backed Walker'16,[64] senior trade advisor to Trump'16,[64] member of the transition landing team for the U.S. Trade Representative portion of the executive branch.[65] Also being considered for Trade Rep, and formerly being considered for Secretary of Commerce.[66] |
|
Larry Kudlow | Former host of The Kudlow Report,[49] CNBC commentator, former New York Fed staffer,[58][67] OMB associate director [67][68] under Reagan,[69] former chief economist at Bear Stearns,[67] and transition team member for George W. Bush.[67] As of December 16, 2016, Larry Kudlow was expected to be the nominee for this role, according to one of the other contenders for the role, conservative economist Stephen Moore, but within hours Moore had retracted his statement as "wishful thinking."[67][70] In addition to competing with Kudlow for the position, Moore worked with Kudlow during the Trump'16 campaign on drafting tax policies, and after the retraction Moore said that he was "very hopeful" that Kudlow would eventually be the appointee.[70] Endorsed by Kevin Brady, U.S. Representative from Texas and chair of the House Ways and Means Committee.[71] Kudlow was criticized as a potential pick for the role as being "a TV host with no economic credentials...worrisome to say the least" by moderate Republican journalist Jennifer Rubin of the Washington Post.[72] Despite his support of Trump, and work under Reagan, Kudlow was characterized as an "establishment Republican" by the Wall Street Journal.[73] |
|
Stephen Moore | Founding president of the Club for Growth, chief economist of the Heritage Foundation,[49] on the economic advisory team for Trump'16. Spoke highly of Larry Kudlow (see above) for the role, after putting forth and then quickly retracting the claim that Kudlow was the pick.[70] (The following day, Moore published an editorial on the dangers of making predictions with absolute certainty.[74]) Moore first met Trump in person in 2015, during a campaign stop; despite Moore's overall support of free trade, Trump asked him to join the campaign, and Moore agreed.[62] |

Peter Navarro | Professor at the UC-Irvine's business school,[49] economics Ph.D from Harvard, influential member (and only academic[75]) on the economic advisory team for Trump'16,[76] analyzed Trump's economic plan with Commerce-designate Wilbur Ross,[77][78] on transition team,[79] former Democratic candidate in San Diego during the 1990s[76] (then-First Lady Hillary Clinton campaigned with Navarro in 1996),[80] self-described Reagan Democrat.[76] Navarro's view on trade was criticized by the fiscally-conservative libertarian Cato Institute in October 2016 as being too similar to Bernie Sanders.[81] Kudlow (and Moore) generally favor free trade combined with lower taxation and deregulation, whereas Navarro thinks reforming international trade and immigration policy are the keys.[62] Navarro had been in contact with Trump since 2011, but never met with him in person until very late in the 2016 campaign.[82] Navarro is seen as the frontrunner for the chair of the CEA, according to The New York Times.[83] As of December 21, 2016, Navarro was announced as the director of the newly created National Trade Council;[84] it is unclear whether or not this job precludes Navarro from playing a dual role in the CEA (which unlike the NTC requires Senate confirmation). |
Once a choice has been made, the nomination of a Chair-designate is reviewed during hearings held by the members of the United States Senate Committee on Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs and then presented to the full Senate for a vote.
See also, various other Trump administration roles directly related to the economy: director of the NEC (Cohn), Fed Vice-Chair, SEC chair, OMB director (Mulvaney), Treasury secretary (Mnuchin), Commerce secretary (Ross), U.S. Trade Rep (Lighthizer), SBA administrator (McMahon), and several others.
Prior candidates for announced positions
The following people were considered (or received media speculation as being considered) as potential nominees to Cabinet-level roles in the Trump administration, prior to the selection of a final nominee for the role in question.
Vice President
There were dozens of potential running mates for Trump who received media speculation (including several from New York where Trump himself resides). Trump's eventual pick of Governor Mike Pence of Indiana was officially announced on July 16, 2016 and confirmed by acclamation via parliamentary procedure amongst delegates to the 2016 Republican National Convention on July 19, 2016.
White House Chief of Staff
Trump's selection of former RNC chair Reince Priebus from Wisconsin was officially announced on November 13, 2016. This role does not require Senate confirmation. The appointment of Stephen Bannon as Chief Strategist was announced simultaneously. Although that strategy-role is not a Cabinet-level position in the statutory sense, in an "unusual arrangement"[85] Priebus and Bannon were envisioned by the Trump transition team as being equal partners, and were announced simultaneously.[86][87] See also, team of rivals.[88][89] With Priebus accepting a role within the administration, the person who replaces Priebus in his former role as RNC chair will be decided in January.

Jeff Sessions | U.S. Senator from Alabama; Member of the United States Senate Committee on Armed Services from Alabama; Former Attorney of the Southern District of Alabama[21] |
The nomination of an Attorney General-designate is reviewed during hearings held by the members of the Judiciary committee, then presented to the full Senate for a vote. Members of the Democratic party in the Senate have stated their intention to oppose this nominee; that said, successfully blocking the nomination would require peeling away at least two or three Republican members of the full body (or at least one Republican member of the relevant committee), which is expected to have a baseline partisan split (52 who caucus with the Republicans versus 48 who caucus with the Democrats).[97] Republican members of the current committee spoke favorably towards Sessions,[98] which as a majority would theoretically be sufficient for Sessions to pass the committee phase. (The committee assignments for the 115th Congress of 2017-2019 have not yet been made, but historically Senators are very often reassigned.) Although some Senators including Elizabeth Warren have criticized Sessions, at least one Senator from the other major party, Joe Manchin of West Virginia, has stated he will vote to confirm Sessions.[98] Historically, there has never been a sitting Senator appointed to cabinet position who was denied that post during the confirmation process.[98]
Ambassador to the United Nations
Trump officially announced Governor Nikki Haley from South Carolina as his selection for this role on November 23, 2016. Haley supported Marco Rubio in the Republican primaries and caucuses, but later endorsed Trump as the presumptive Republican nominee.[99] Henry McMaster, who was an early supporter of Trump,[100] is also under consideration for a role in the Trump administration, but should he not accept such a role, he will become the sitting Governor due to his current position of Lieutenant Governor of South Carolina.[101]

The nomination of an Ambassador-designate to the United Nations is reviewed during hearings held by the members of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, and then presented to the full Senate for a vote.
Secretary of Education
Trump's selection of former RNC member Betsy DeVos from Michigan was officially announced on November 23, 2016.
The nomination of a Secretary-designate is reviewed during hearings held by the members of the Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee, then presented to the full Senate for a vote.

Secretary of Defense
Trump informally announced the selection of General James Mattis as Secretary of Defense on December 1, 2016.[149] (The Trump Transition Team formally announced the selection on December 6, 2016.[150]) As with most cabinet roles, the Secretary-designate of Defense undergoes hearings before the appropriate committee of the United States Senate, followed by a confirmation-vote. In the case of Mattis, there is an additional step needed, on top of Senate confirmation: because he retired from the military three years ago, section 903(a) of the NDAA will need to be altered (or a special waiver will need to be enacted), since that statute demands a minimum of seven years as a civilian for appointees.[151] In addition to the Senate, therefore, the House will also be involved. All three bodies needed (House/Senate/Presidency) are expected to be under Republican control when the 2017 session begins, based on the results of the November 2016 elections, but for the legislative branch by slimmer margins than at the beginning of the 2015 session.
Assuming an alteration or revocation of the civilian-for-seven-years statute occurs (see explanation above), the nomination of Mattis as the Secretary-designate is reviewed during hearings held by the members of the Foreign Relations committee, then presented to the full Senate for a vote.

- ^ The sources usually indicate this is specifically sitting U.S. Rep. Duncan D. Hunter age 39, not to be confused with his father the former U.S. Rep. and former 2008 presidential candidate Duncan Lee Hunter age 68, who previously held the exact same elected office before retiring from the seat (his son thereafter winning and becoming his replacement). Both the father and the son are being considered for potential roles within the Trump administration in defense-related positions,[155] as both are veterans (war on terror and war in Vietnam respectively), and furthermore both served on the House Armed Services Committee during their respective tenures.
- ^ أ ب As of December 9th 2016, multiple media reports surfaced that Cathy McMorris Rodgers was anonymously leaked as being Trump's decision for United States Secretary of the Interior; according to Reuters.com she had been picked,[215][216] and according to Bloomberg.com she had been offered the role,[217] but most other news reports were slightly more cautious. Rodgers was most commonly called the reported pick[218][219] or the expected pick,[220][221][222][223][224] or similar phrases by the media. Some smaller media outfits said only that she was the likely pick.[225][226] CNN was the most cautious, only stating in passing that Rodgers was the leading contender,[227] albeit in an article that was more about discussing the various influences upon the vetting-process rather than being solely concentrating on the latest updates as to the status of the role itself. At least one media entity, The News & Observer (online since 1994), published a report during the afternoon of December 9th questioning the coverage of Rodgers as the expected pick, stating that an anonymous official -- presumably different from the one that had leaked the Rodgers scoop earlier -- with the Trump transition team has specifically refuted that Rodgers was the expected pick, and that quote "No offer has been made... still looking at candidates."[228]
- ^ Multiple sources say Zinke has been picked.[230][231][232][233] Some say that Zinke has reportedly been picked.[234] The New York Times specifically says that Zinke was offered the role.[235]
