Trump is assembling an administration filled with figures who advocate a hardline approach toward China, indicating his intention to confront Beijing on multiple fronts.
Among the most noteworthy nominations are John Ratcliffe for CIA, Pete Hegseth as Secretary of Defense, and Michael Waltz as National Security Adviser, all known for their hawkish positions.
Elon Musk, despite being tapped for a government position, is noted for his positive views towards China, contrasting with the predominantly hawkish cabinet.
Robert Lighthizer, who effectively played a key role in Trump's trade war, is expected to oversee trade again, focusing on aggressive tariffs against China.
