Summary
Donald Trump is assembling the wealthiest U.S. administration in history, with a cabinet of billionaires and multimillionaires worth a combined $340 billion.
High-profile appointees include Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy for a new government efficiency role, alongside billionaires Linda McMahon, Doug Burgum, and Scott Bessent in key cabinet positions.
Critics argue this contrasts sharply with Trump’s working-class rhetoric, with analysts warning of policies favoring the wealthy at the expense of public services like education and social security.
Backlash over inequality and budget cuts is anticipated.
