Sergio Gor reportedly seeks senior role in State Department or White House

US Ambassador to India Sergio Gor is reportedly positioning himself for a senior role in the State Department or White House, potentially replacing Secretary of State Marco Rubio, amid an anticipated post-midterm administration shake-up. Gor, a longtime Trump confidant and business associate of Donald Trump Jr., has expressed interest in a more prominent position, with sources citing Secretary of State, Deputy Secretary, or Chief of Staff as possibilities. He has outsized influence and close ties to Rubio, though both men denied the reports. The speculation follows Trump's firing of Chief of Staff Susie Wiles, replaced by Stephen Miller, and comes as Democrats won majorities in both congressional chambers. Gor previously led the White House Office of Presidential Personnel, and Rubio may eventually leave to pursue a presidential bid.
