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.
