President-elect Trump is expected to put Sergio Gor, an ally and business partner of his son, Donald Trump Jr., in charge of running the White House’s personnel office in his new administration.
Gor is slated to lead the Presidential Personnel Office, an important position given Trump’s desire to stock his administration with loyalists and root out any individuals who may not follow through with his agenda. The office helps identify and put forward appointees to fill thousands of jobs across the federal government.
“Awesome news. Sergio will be great!” Trump Jr. posted on the social platform X about news of Gor’s appointment.
Semafor first reported on Gor’s expected hire.
Gor is a former aide to Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) and co-founded a publishing company with Trump Jr. that has published books by the president-elect and conservative personalities such as Charlie Kirk and Peter Navarro. Gor also led the pro-Trump super PAC Right for America.
During Trump’s first term, the office was led by Johnny McEntee, who reportedly sought out loyalists to serve in the administration. McEntee more recently worked on a Heritage Foundation effort to identify personnel and lay the foundation for the next Republican administration.
