Transition
I am impressed that the transition of Administrations has already started.
In an Age of Terror, an Early Start on the Presidential Transition
There will be meetings between all the candidate's teams and the Administration to lay the ground for an orderly transition which, now, is inevitable. Term limits are just that and there will be on Obama Administration after this cycle ends.
The exercise is daunting. I can imagine the slog required by some very talented people to make the change invisible to those who would take advantage.
Of course, the permanent standing government, civil and military, will do most of this work. But at the heads of these groups will stand relatively ignorant political leaders who must be taught the details before any cracks can appear.
It is interesting that all the campaigns are sending someone except, so far, the Trump organization which continues to show very shallow underpinnings. A one man show. Scary.
Government is not a one-man show or, in our case, a one-woman show.
That is another problem incidentally. The generic "he" and "man" phrases are about to get turned on their ears.
