Description
It has been over a week since Election Day and President-elect Donald Trump is charging full speed ahead as he begins to build his new administration. From appointing new and unexpected members to his Cabinet and creating a Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) that Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy will lead, the president-elect has kept himself at the top of the news. What does this all mean for your bottom line? We get into it.
