Transition teams usually focus on filling national-security positions first. Biden’s team is discussing expanding the type of jobs that must be filled on Day 1 to include those dealing with the pandemic and the economy, according to transition officials.

WASHINGTON—The twin economic and public health crises facing the U.S. have upended how Joe Biden’s and President Trump’s senior aides are planning for the next four years.

Low-profile teams assembled by each candidate are quietly planning for a smooth transition to a second term if Mr. Trump is re-elected—or to a new presidency if the former vice president wins. It is traditionally a more daunting task for the challenger: Mr. Biden’s team not only has to turn the broad promises the candidate made on the campaign trail into policy, but also has to fill thousands of jobs and organize government agencies.

Historically, transition teams first focus on putting in place key national-security positions because experts believe the U.S. is uniquely vulnerable to a terrorist attack during a government changeover. But Mr. Biden’s small transition team is already discussing expanding the type of jobs that must be filled on Day 1 so that the new administration is prepared to deal with the pandemic and the economy, according to multiple Biden transition officials.

“If there’s a template for transition personnel priorities, it was helpful for maybe five minutes,” one of the officials said, adding that the transition team is hoping to have people in place to make immediate decisions on the crises facing the country.

Should be straightforward. Trump team abandons their posts where they weren’t doing anything. Biden team has to start enacting their plans.

that's an easy one, Biden doesn't believe in national security...

They will need the first two years to replace senior leadership at every agency and department and cancel all Trump executive orders.

look for a good old folks home, plagiarizing joe is on drugs to make it thru a stolen speech.

So it appears that 'Sleepy Joe' is managing to accomplish more whilst supposedly asleep than Trump is whilst he's meant to be awake JoeBiden :)

Yet think, if Biden wins, about the power struggle behind the scenes in the Democratic Party for who gets to control a president who is failing mentally.
