NextImg:Maggie Haberman Names Shock Trump Cabinet Pick That May Be ‘A Bridge Too Far’
LOADINGERROR LOADING

The New York Times’ Maggie Haberman on Thursday told CNN’s Jake Tapper that President-elect Donald Trump is “looking to essentially shock and overwhelm the system” with his eyebrow-raising Cabinet picks.

Tapper noted how Trump’s nominations were all people who have shown fealty to the incoming POTUS. They are “MAGA warriors,” “not uniting people” and “in your face to the medical community, to the intelligence community, to the military community,” he said.

Trump wants Fox News personality Pete Hegseth to run the Pentagon, former Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.) as attorney general and anti-vaccine conspiracy theorist Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as health secretary.

Trump “was quite clear what he was planning to do in office,” Haberman pointed out. “That’s what these picks are designed to do.”

But Haberman suggested Gaetz as attorney general may possibly be “a bridge too far for some Republicans senators, but we’ll find out.”
