Did you watch Bill Maher this last Friday? He had the guy that wrote 'The Fifth Risk,' which I just bought on Kindle. Michael Lewis is the guy's name, and he said that by law, every outgoing administration has a transition team to meet the incoming administration's so there can be a smooth transition from the proverbial 'day 1.'

Trump blew off having a transition team at all. Seems he thought he and Chris Christie could go over it for about two hours and then everything would be fine.

Which makes Biden look pretty good because he KNOWS how things work already, because Trump isn't going to have any transition team for the next incoming administration. I'm thinking he'll refuse to leave, handcuff himself to his headboard or something, and US marshals and secret service agents will have to escort him out forcefully.

Everyone else will have a learning curve of several months.

Joe will hit the ground running.
