Trump Plans Cabinet Reshuffle Following Republican Midterm Losses
(MENAFN) US President Donald Trump announced Friday that he intends to make several changes to his Cabinet after Republicans lost control of both chambers of Congress in the midterm elections.
Asked during an interview with CBS News' 60 Minutes whether he was considering dismissing any officials, Trump confirmed that some personnel changes were planned.
"I do, yeah. Little bit."
"I love my Cabinet. I think they’re good," he said. "But I’ll … be doing maybe a few changes."
