It's Grading Time—Trump Weighs in on Rubio, McMahon, RFK Jr. and Other Cabinet Members' Job Performance

Trump Evaluates the Job Performance of Rubio, McMahon, RFK Jr., and Other Cabinet Members

Looking ahead to 2025, Trump has assumed the presidency once more, while Rubio holds the position of his eager and devoted secretary of state. During a Friday evening interview on “Finnerty,” a Newsmax program with Rob Finnerty as host, the president had positive remarks about his former rival when discussing his Cabinet members:

“Born for this job. We had a really nasty campaign in the 2016 campaign … and yet I respected him. I thought he was a great debater. I thought he was very smart. … He’s just a great guy. And he did something else that’s amazing. He got, essentially, a hundred votes” in his Senate confirmation. …

“He was able to get along with everybody. He’s a very talented guy, Marco, and we’re really happy.”

He had more to say on other topics in the interview, as our Becca Lower reported Friday:
