The role of a transition team would come into play only after Trump wins the November general elections and entails preparing for a potential transfer of power and selection of White House administration staff.

The real estate mogul became the presumptive Republican presidential nominee about a week ago when he won the Indiana primary and two of his rivals Ted Cruz and John Kasich dropped out of the race.
