NBC: Donald Trump is looking beyond the convention, the fall
campaign and election itself to begin to plan for a massive takeover
affecting four million employees: the governing stage.
In a new role, New Jersey Governor Chris Christie will serve as
chairman to assemble a transition team of experts on domestic and
foreign policy to begin the organizational architecture for a future
Trump administration.
Christie’s team will conduct a search for candidates to fill top
cabinet level positions and the roughly one thousand executive branch
job openings that require Senate confirmation.
The executive branch employs roughly four million federal workers.
Under the law, a presidential transition team is a separate organization from the campaign.
Sources close to Christie describe this new position as further
evidence of how the governor is trying to bring both substance and
seriousness to the campaign behind the scenes.
