The last three replacements he's made-- John Bolton replacing Rex Tillerson as Secretary of State, Mike Pompeo replacing James Mattis as Secretary of Defense, and Ronnie Jackson as Secretary of Veterans affairs, replacing David Shulkin.
I'd say that with these three changes, he's completed the process of installing loyalists-- while at the same time downgrading the quality and competence of just about all of the people in the cabinet. Below, you'll find the listing of cabinet members. It still includes Tillerson and Mattis because they will soon be leaving.
I believe that this collection of cabinet members is the least loyal to America, most incompetent ever, in the history of the United States

For those who believe Trump is the savior of the US, cleaning out the swamp, confronting the "deep state" (a term created by right wingers to stoke paranoia among Trump supporters) I would argue that the people in his cabinet are protectors of the powers that be and the "system," other terms that also describe these secret powers that pull so many of the levers of power.
