https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2026/us/politics/trump-cabinet-meetings.html?smid=nytcore-ios-shareThe #cabinet has historically advised the #POTUS on a variety of matters, but in Trump’s 2nd term, it appears to have taken on a new mandate∶ #flattery.
Marathon cabinet meetings, lasting 1–3 hrs, have become a hallmark of Trump’s 2nd presidency…. Often televised, the meetings provide an opportunity for ofcls to credit him for their dept’s accomplishments while still trying to claim some spotlight for themselves.

Some, like Secretary of #State #MarcoRubio & #JohnRatcliffe, the #CIA director, packed their speaking time with #praise, while others, like Vice President #JDVance, focused on #attacking Democrats. Many of these statements are exaggerated or not factually accurate [#lies].
Compared with his 1st term, … #Trump has emphasized the importance of #loyalty this time around. Admin ofcls have complimented him far more in #cabinet meetings than in his 1st term…

One of the most striking features of #Trump’s #cabinet meetings this term is the extent to which his leadership has been praised as “unparalleled”.
Officials have declared on camera that he is singlehandedly ending global conflicts, winning the race for artificial intelligence, motivating troops to enlist & lowering gas prices, among a number of other falsely claimed accomplishments.
