West Palm Beach, FL — As “former President Donald Trump” transitions into “President-elect Donald Trump,” he and his team have a simple litmus test for serving in his second administration: loyalty.

“He’ll want people who are loyal, battle-tested and dedicated to the agenda versus taking a ton of chances on disaffected Johnny-come-latelies like, name your person, John Bolton,” one former White House official who’s been hanging around West Palm Beach in recent days told NOTUS. “He’ll bring people in who are loyal.”

Another former senior administration official also emphasized that Trump was indeed looking for loyalty, but this person also said the president-elect would have additional requirements.
