Who are the main candidates?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Elon Musk<\/strong><br>Tech billionaire Elon Musk became one of Trump\u2019s most vocal supporters several months before the election, donating at least $119 million to Trump\u2019s campaign in seven key swing states, according to <em>Index.hr<\/em>.<br>His loyalty will likely be rewarded, as Trump has promised Musk a role at the head of a new Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), named after the cryptocurrency Dogecoin, which Musk frequently promotes.<br>According to Trump, the task of this department would be to carry out a full financial and operational audit of the federal government, allowing Musk to simplify bureaucratic processes that both he and Trump see as obstacles to American progress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Robert F. Kennedy Jr.<\/strong><br>Robert F. Kennedy Jr. dropped out of his independent presidential campaign to support Trump in August, a move that was condemned by members of his family.<br>Trump has promised him a role focused on healthcare policy, and Kennedy has hinted that one of the initiatives could be the removal of fluoride from public water systems.<br>Kennedy, the son of politician Robert F. Kennedy and nephew of assassinated President John F. Kennedy, is known for his vaccine skepticism and has frequently spread debunked claims during the pandemic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Don Jr., Eric, and Lara Trump<\/strong><br>Trump\u2019s daughter Ivanka and her husband Jared Kushner were key advisors during his first term. However, in 2023, Trump stated that he did not want his children to serve in the administration again because it was &#8220;too painful for the family.&#8221;<br>Nevertheless, Eric and Don Jr. played significant roles in the campaign, while Eric&#8217;s wife, Lara, is active in politics as co-chair of the Republican Party.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Mike Pompeo<\/strong><br>Former CIA Director and Secretary of State, Mike Pompeo, is considered a leading candidate for Secretary of Defense or a role related to national security and diplomacy.<br>Pompeo is one of Trump\u2019s closest allies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><mark style=\"background-color:#FFFFFF;color:#d21414\" class=\"has-inline-color\">PRO\u010cITAJTE VI\u0160E:<\/mark><\/h4>\n\n\n\t<figure class='wp-block-newspack-blocks-iframe'>\n\t\t<div class='wp-block-embed__wrapper' style=\"height:600px; width:100%;\">\n\t\t\t<iframe\n\t\t\t\tid = 'newspack-iframe-rKrnSz36Ws6a'\n\t\t\t\tlayout = 'responsive'\n\t\t\t\theight = '100'\n\t\t\t\twidth = '100'\n\t\t\t\tsrc = 'https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/plugins\/post.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Fserbiantimes%2Fposts%2Fpfbid0SDLrUZVUdT1ydm1xkMNh2cjgqbXY51nUXPxjYrmYdEWfmmLp8fFiZSDXrafVTqjol'\n\t\t\t\tstyle = 'height: 600px; width: 100%;'\n\t\t\t\tframeborder = '0'\n\t\t\t\tallowfullscreen\n\t\t\t><\/iframe>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/figure>\n\n\t<script>\n\t\tconst iframe = document.getElementById(\"newspack-iframe-rKrnSz36Ws6a\");\n\t\tconst timerId = setInterval( function() {\n\t\t\t\tiframe.src = iframe.src;\n\t\t\t}, 2000 );\n\n\t\tiframe.onload = function() {\n\t\t\tclearInterval(timerId);\n\t\t}\n\n\t<\/script>\n\n\t\n\n\n<p><strong>Richard Grenell<\/strong><br>Richard Grenell, Trump\u2019s foreign policy advisor, is being considered for National Security Advisor. His connections with foreign leaders and his hardline approach make him a controversial figure, but he could be part of the new administration.<br>This could be particularly significant for Serbia and the Balkans, as he was Trump\u2019s envoy to the region during his previous term. Grenell is a recipient of the Order of the Serbian Flag, First Class, awarded by Serbian President Aleksandar Vu\u010di\u0107. Four years ago, he received a medal from the then-President of Kosovo, Hashim Tha\u00e7i.
