Trump expected to select Sen. Marco Rubio for secretary of state: Sources
President-elect Trump plans to nominate GOP Sen. Marco Rubio of Florida for secretary of state, according to sources.
Summary
Donald Trump is expected to nominate Sen. Marco Rubio as secretary of state, according to sources.
Rubio, who has served in the Senate since 2011 and has substantial foreign policy experience, is viewed by State Department officials as unlikely to overly politicize the role.
Initially a critic of Trump, Rubio has since aligned closely with his agenda, including a more cautious stance on aid to Ukraine.
His confirmation is expected to proceed smoothly, as Florida Governor Ron DeSantis would appoint Rubio’s Senate replacement until the next election.
