Who will leave their role in the Trump administration in 2026?
Leaning No: the latest reports still show Hegseth in office with public Trump and Pentagon support. That keeps Yes below the 12% market price, around 9%.
Analysis
November 11, 2026 reports still show Hegseth serving and no formal departure announced. The House impeachment push was also blocked, reducing near-term removal risk.
Trump’s November 10 praise and the Pentagon spokesman’s commitment language both argue against an imminent exit. The main Yes path is a sudden reversal, scandal, or dismissal before year-end.
Arguments
For
- Fresh reports show no resignation, firing, or replacement.
- Top political support reduces near-term removal risk.
Against
- High-profile defense roles can change quickly under pressure.
- Impeachment and criticism keep some departure risk alive.
Key drivers
- He remains in office as of November 11.
- Trump and Pentagon leadership are publicly backing him.
Risk factors
- A fast-moving scandal could still trigger dismissal.
- Political pressure could return despite the blocked impeachment effort.
Scenarios
Best case
If Trump or the White House removes him before 2027, Yes rises to about 35%.
Most likely
Most likely he remains Secretary of Defense, with Yes around 9%.
Worst case
If he stays through December 31, 2026, Yes falls to about 1%.

Next CEO of NVIDIA?
AI2%MKT27%Edge-25HypedSlight lean to No: the market is only 4%, and the key fact is that NVIDIA has not announced Colette Kress as Jensen Huang’s successor as of November 11, 2026. The current reporting treats her as a possible interim or continuity choice, which would not satisfy the rule.
