In a statement posted on Truth Social, Trump said that Warren had always envisioned himself working for the US full-time. “I am overjoyed that he will now have the chance to serve as the United States’ top diplomat, representing the country to one of its most valued and adored allies.”
Stephens, the CEO of the private investment bank Stephens Inc. in Arkansas, gave millions of dollars to Trump’s reelection campaign this year.
Stephens will contribute to preserving the alleged “special relationship” between the US and the UK if his nomination is accepted.
The two nations continue to have strong cultural, military, and intelligence connections.
Trump has promised to put a “America-first” mentality into foreign policy and to restructure US ties overseas.
