“Both Donald Trump and Kamala Harris’s teams are quietly preparing their governments-in-waiting, even as the two nominees remain focused on actually winning the presidency in the final days of an incredibly close election on Tuesday,” Bloomberg reports.
“Not surprisingly, their approaches are as different as their campaigns.”
“Already Harris’s lean transition team has set up shop in federal government offices, working with the US General Services Administration, and is building out its infrastructure with a taxpayer-funded budget, meaning the team has agreed to $5,000 limits on individual private donations. It is led by the same official, former Ambassador Yohannes Abraham, who ran Joe Biden’s transition after the 2020 election.”
“Trump has steered clear of any government funding or office space so far, so distrustful are his allies of career civil servants and the Biden administration. That frees him to accept unlimited private donations.”
