The leaders of President-elect Donald Trump’s transition team announced Wednesday that they would be spending the next few weeks preparing to staff the next administration.
Linda McMahon, former head of the Small Business Administration (SBA), and businessman Howard Lutnick released a statement detailing the transition team’s next steps after Trump’s landslide win. As of Thursday morning, Trumped was projected to win the popular vote and 312 electoral votes, including a sweep of the battleground states.
“Since the formation of President Trump’s transition organization and our announcement as Co-Chairs in August, we have been preparing for President Trump’s next administration,” McMahon and Lutnick said. “In the days and weeks ahead, President Trump will be selecting personnel to serve our nation under his leadership and enact policies that make the life of Americans affordable, safe, and secure.”
The two added that they would be presenting Trump with a “wide array of experts” to choose from to add to his administration.
“As he chooses the best people to join his team and best policies to pursue, his transition team will ensure the implementation of President Trump’s common sense agenda starting on Day 1,” the joint statement said.
McMahon, the wife of former WWE CEO Vince McMahon, led the SBA during Trump’s first term in office and has recently been in charge of the America First Policy Institute, a pro-Trump think tank. Lutnick, the billionaire head of financial firm Cantor Fitzgerald, was a prominent donor to Trump.

Other transition team members include Vice President-elect JD Vance, Donald Trump Jr., Eric Trump, former Democratic Rep. Tulsi Gabbard, and Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
Trump Jr. previously said he hoped to keep bad-faith actors from joining the administration.
“I want to block the liars. I want to block the guys that are, you know, pretending they’re with you. I just want to block the bad actors. I just want to be a block. That’s it,” he said at the Republican National Convention in July.
Trump is scheduled to meet with President Joe Biden in the coming days.
“President Trump looks forward to the meeting, which will take place shortly, and very much appreciated the call,” Trump campaign communications director Steven Cheung said after Biden called to congratulate Trump.
Biden is expected to speak Thursday morning from the White House for the first time since Tuesday’s election.
