"Bessent's potential position was one of the most hotly debated Cabinet posts within Trump’s transition team.

Trump adviser and Tesla CEO Elon Musk was actively pulling for Wall Street exec and crypto enthusiast Howard Lutnick to lead the Treasury, calling Bessent a “business-as-usual choice” Lutnick was ultimately nominated for Commerce secretary.

Both Bessent and Lutnick met Trump’s top criteria for the job, per the Financial Times: a willingness to ram through tariffs that Trump promised on the campaign trail.

Bessent has also been an ardent supporter of the president-elect’s third run for office, hosting a series of fundraisers this year that drew in tens of millions."

"Trump’s interest in Patel speaks to his urge to fill top law enforcement and intelligence positions with supporters who may be open to carrying out his demands for specific investigations as well as inoculating the president against possible future probes.

Even among Trump loyalists, Patel is widely viewed as a controversial figure and relentless self-promoter whose value to the president-elect largely derives from a shared disdain for the so-called deep state."

"Patel rose to prominence within Trump’s orbit in 2018, when he served as an aide to Rep. Devin Nunes, the top Republican on the House Intelligence Committee at the time. Patel played a key role in Nunes’ efforts to discredit the FBI’s Russia investigation into the Trump campaign, including a controversial classified memo that alleged FBI abuses of Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act warrants on Trump advisers.

In 2019, Patel went to work for Trump on the National Security Council before becoming chief of staff to the acting defense secretary at the end of Trump’s first term.

When Trump considered firing then-CIA Director Gina Haspel after the 2020 election – as he pushed to release more information about the Russia investigation – Patel was floated as a potential replacement.

While that never came to pass, Patel has remained a fixture in Trump’s orbit, though his proximity to the president-elect has ebbed and flowed."
