Trump begins transition to new administration after election victory
Donald Trump is preparing for a new administration following his election victory. He has a 75-day transition period to fill about 4,000 government positions, including 1,200 that require Senate confirmation, now easier with Republican control of the Senate. Trump's transition team is led by friends and family, including Robert Kennedy Jr. and Tulsi Gabbard. Unlike his first term, Trump aims for a loyal team aligned with his views, moving away from mainstream Republican picks. New rules now require transitions to start five days after the election, regardless of disputes. This change aims to prevent delays like those experienced in 2020, ensuring smoother transitions in the future.
