Trump's New Cabinet Called a "Motley Collection of Believers"While history hasn't yet given a nickname for President-elect Donald Trump's cabinet and his executive team, it's starting to look like he's surrounding himself with men and women of faith. (Washington, DC)—[CBN News] Abraham Lincoln had his "Team of Rivals." John F. Kennedy had his "Wise Men."

Mnuchin had worked as a partner at Goldman Sachs for 17 years before launching his own hedge fund, "Dune Capital Management." While there, he's invested in several blockbuster films, including "Avatar," "Mad Max: Fury Road," and the critically-planned, yet commercially-successful "Suicide Squad."
