"Harris even promised to help with the transition. What is this world coming to?"

I think Michael Lewis wrote a book on the 2016 transition from Obama to Trump.
Obama had all of his key transition teams contact the incoming Trump people, to arrange
meetings. The response was rather lukewarm. When meetings were set, Trump people either
did not even bother showing up, or sat quiet and did not even pay attention or ask questions
in the meetings.

I wonder if they will show any humility this time, and bother to show up and participate.
I have my doubts. Most of the MAGA people I know are the most obnoxious and arrogant people that
I come across. Seems to be a common trait.

"The election happened," remembers Elizabeth Sherwood-Randall, then deputy secretary of the Department of Energy. "And then there was radio silence." Across all departments, similar stories were playing out: Trump appointees were few and far between; those that did show up were shockingly uninformed about the functions of their new workplace. Some even threw away the briefing books that had been prepared for them."
