President-elect Donald Trump revealed Saturday night that he will not ask former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley or former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo to join his administration.
Trump said on his Truth Social that Haley, who ripped him when she ran against him for the GOP nomination, and Pompeo, who some supporters criticized for not backing Trump strongly enough, will not be invited to join him when he re-enters the White House in January 2025.
“I will not be inviting former Ambassador Nikki Haley, or former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, to join the Trump Administration, which is currently in formation,” Trump posted.
“I very much enjoyed and appreciated working with them previously, and would like to thank them for their service to our Country. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!”
Since winning Tuesday’s election in a landslide victory against Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris, Trump and his team have been working behind closed doors at Mar-a-Lago to staff the 47th president’s administration, with loyalty the primary job requirement.
