Summary

Donald Trump’s ambassadorial nominees for his upcoming term are facing widespread criticism for their lack of qualifications and potential conflicts of interest.

Picks such as Herschel Walker (Bahamas), Charles Kushner (France), and Kimberly Guilfoyle (Greece) are seen as emblematic of a “diplomatic clown car,” undermining U.S. foreign policy.

Experts warn unqualified ambassadors to key posts like NATO or Turkey could harm U.S. interests.

Critics blame the Senate for failing to vet nominees rigorously and Democrats for not opposing these controversial appointments, which highlight Trump’s transactional approach to diplomacy.
