Rubio is my guess for first cabinet member to go — Trump put him in there just to get him out of the senate.
Dems were hoping he’d push back against Trump’s anti-western foreign policy (me too) but he clearly has no juice.

Maybe he’ll be willing to leak for a bit at least.
Can’t miss the window to run for Gov though, which is the only other real option he’d have.

Marco Rubio's confirmation as Secretary of State was a strategic move that aligns perfectly with President Trump's America First agenda. Rubio's expertise in foreign policy and his unwavering stance against Chinese influence make him an invaluable asset to the administration.

Low-income Americans who voted for Trump say they are counting on him to keep their benefits intact even while his Cabinet picks and Republican lawmakers call on him to reduce federal spending.
I would guess Bessant, between his being gay at a time the government is so homophobic they are trying to scrub references to Enola Gay, and his "let them eat cake" public comments.
Rubio hated the Senate. He's delighted to be in Foggy Bottom with some real influence instead. Just now he's under Trump's thumb on Russia because it's such high profile, but the job's going to improve steadily for the next four years and Rubio is looking forward to that.
Rubio was stupid to give up his Senate seat for this.
Like Jeff Sessions, too stupid to understand you never trade an independant post for one where you will be ejected at will.
Hope this is true because Rubio not better than rest of others like Patel.
He showed who he is sinking in the sofa like a scared cat in the cabinet meeting.
I gave him six months when he was nominated. That might be optimistic. Worst political decision ever.
