Several names have emerged as contenders for Secretary of State under President Trump. Bill Hagerty, a former ambassador, and Senator Marco Rubio of Florida are seen as top competitors by Trump’s allies. Other possible picks include former National Security Advisor Robert O’Brien, former Acting DNI Richard Grenell, and ex-State Department official Brian Hook.

Representative Elise Stefanik of New York, a staunch Trump supporter in Congress, has also been mentioned for this role or as a potential U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations.
