So the question is that in this new Trump admin, is he going to focus on the national faction, the global faction, or try to appease both?

At the same time, there is a more global-focused elite which wants conflict abroad to take out competitors, namely Russia and China and fight historical foes, such as Iran.

By that, I mean that there is a portion of the Republican party which is focused more domestically and is concerned about jobs, immigration, and the larger economy.

Yes, Trump does have a lot of support in the Republican party but only insofar as he executes the will of the Republican elites and donor class. Even then it's also based on which factionalism both internally and more generally.

For example, this idea that Trump can just say the word and the Republicans and SCOTUS will support him is pretty ridiculous. It assumes that these people are robots and don't have any political goals/games of their own.
