Trump's campaign distances itself from second-term allies and nightmare Cabinet proposals

Donald Trump's presidential campaign is distancing itself from allies and former aides who are outlining plans for a potential second term, stating that messages about a potential Trump government from anyone other than the Republican or his team should not be considered official. The campaign is pushing back against efforts to portray Trump and his second-term agenda as extreme, while Trump himself has been using violent and authoritarian rhetoric and vowing "retribution" against his enemies. Trump's campaign advisers deny that a second administration would be staffed by fringe characters and emphasize that Trump remains in touch with experienced figures.
