About Recess Appointments

“Wrong. They said the recess needs to be more than 10 days and YES HE CAN, with Johnson.
The Speaker can authorize the president to Recess both for a time he deems appropriate. Obama failed because he did it unilaterally and only for a VERY Short period of time.

Checkmate.”
This is getting silly. Are they actually trying to slip an important Trump nominee through congress using skullduggery? Gaetz is a major political figure in the Republican Party, and should be presented as such to congress. If he can’t garner support from his own party he should fail. Susan Collins gets the same vote as any other Republican Senator. Even worse, Pete Hegseth, who is clearly unqualified for the position of Secretary of Defence, and who does not seem particularly astute, also seems to require passage in untoward ways. Trump is being embarrassed, and for good reason. This is not a campaign in Iowa, this is a nomination to become an important part of the United States Government.
Do you want Trump to do the job that citizens voted for him to do OR to spend the next 4 years fighting the Deep State bureaucracy that has zero interest in him achieving any of his objectives??? Didn’t you comment earlier today that Trump already isn’t doing enough or moving fast enough? How do you achieve a citizen mandate in just two years? How did the Democrats handle these “rules” when moving 20 Million illegal migrants across the US border? Or how about when they forgave $Billions in student loans AFTER the Supreme Court confirmed it was illegal. The article suggests that Trump is considering exactly the same path that Obama attempted but this time legally as per SC rulings. NO one knows if this is a distraction or will occur — heck they haven’t even finished counting the votes yet — and Trump still needs to survive to inauguration day! If nothing changes and the world follows the same old path, than we are doomed because this opportunity will have passed but never seized upon.
The Dems, lie, cheat, steal and BREAK laws and undermine the Constitution every chance they get. If Trump has to play fast and loose with some rules and traditions more power to him. For years people have complained that the GOP loses because they get beaten like a drum for following the rules while the Dems get away with every crime in the book. Now some are going to knit pick how he beats them at their own game. Get real and stop looking for minor things to complain about. He isn’t breaking the law or going against the constitution, so stop whinning.
