Recess appointments could short-circuit Senate opposition to Trump nominees: ANALYSIS
The use of recess appointments to install members of Donald Trump's Cabinet would circumvent a key Senate process, consolidating presidential power.
Looks like Trump told Thune he could be maj leader in exchange for recess appointments.
Trump gonna get his entire cabinet confirmed before Jan 20th?
5D Chess.

Still think Harris is gonna win?
All happening in accordance with US law. What’s the problem?
I didn't include you because I knew what your answer would be. But I'll give you credit, at least you are honest enough to respond when the others aren't.
That IS his problem.
I want you in a camp Jan 21 so I’m probably not the person to ask.
Is that what you call it, 5D Chess? Will you be okay with it when the Democrats do it?

To hear them tell it, Democrats have already done it.
That is a lie of of course, a misrepresentation. But it doesn't matter.
It helps to justify it in their sick minds, for some reason.
They want a fascist country Dan. They want a dictatorship.
It is time for you to come to terms with this. It's tough, I get it. But it is the truth.
They already have.
I'm going off my memory from the Clinton days so I maybe wrong but I'm recalling a process the Senate could use when they went on recess to keep the President from making recess appointments. Something to do with leaving a Senator in the Senate Chambers. I'm thinking this went to the SCOTUS but I maybe wrong and if not I don't remember what the ruling was.
it's a lie huh.
Recess Appointments Made by President Barack Obama
Under the Constitution, the President and the Senate share the power to make appointments to high-level politically appointed positions...
www.everycrsreport.com
President Obama made 32 recess appointments, all to full-time positions. During his presidency, President William J. Clinton made 139 recess appointments, 95 to full-time positions and 44 to part-time positions. President George W. Bush made 171 recess appointments, 99 to full-time positions and 72 to part-time positions.
But thats DiFfErEnT.it's a lie huh.

Did you see how the guy you supported reacted today when he met the fascist dictator?
Joe so damn happy he wet himself LOL
Everyone loves Trump.
Look at him trying so hard, and he still hasn't figured it out. He still hasn't figured out the simple difference. He still can't think for himself.🙄 Or maybe he can and he is just hoping everyone else buys his lies.it's a lie huh.

But you are right @Ponca Dan, if this was newly elected President-elect Harris, he would be having an absolute fit talking about what she was doing was wrong and/or unconstitutional.
@2012Bearcat is just another fascist on this board, trying to pass the blame to someone else for what he truly supports.
He always has been.

When whoopie steps down from the view, you'd fit in perfectly.
You’ll never convince me the Biden’s didn’t vote for Trump.
Biggest “I told you so” in the history of politics.
Yes but somehow it's ok when dems do it, but when Trump follows the Constitution, he's a fascist LOL“President Obama made 32 recess appointments, all to full-time positions. During his presidency, President William J. Clinton made 139 recess appointments, 95 to full-time positions and 44 to part-time positions. President George W.

Half nickel Dan has 4 years and 10 weeks more of unbridled liberty, freedom, and Trust In God. He better pace himself.
And she knew it and that’s why she answered the way she did on The View.
The whole thing was a death spiral from the jump.
Joe was just happy he didn't have to invite Kvntmala instead. Jill too, look at what the Real Fascists did to Joe. They haven't forgotten.
Heck, why stop at 4 years and 10 weeks.
Be honest.
You'd endorse a third term for Trump, wouldn't you? Let him be President till he dies, right?
Oh I forgot, Trump made a joke about a 3rd term. He knew the dullards would shit themselves!
So Trump gonna give us 8 years and 10 weeks of historic wealth creation, prosperity, national security, public health, happiness and love.
Making Dictators Great Again!
So following the procedures built into the constitution is now fascist and dictatorial?
No we are not Democrats, Republicans actually have a deep bench of likeable, charismatic, intelligent candidates to choose from.
Democrats don't like the Constitution when it doesn't serve their needs
The more the left and establishment cry about it, the more I approve of the pick. It's the measuring stick this time around.
I guess all the bankrolled leftist propaganda trolls were given a week off for bereavement. This is some next level gaslighting and pretzel logic getting downloaded in here, and there’s no using logic to stem the tide my friend.
I'm reminded of what the flop eared Kenyan goat herder said after his election "elections have consequences." Well libs, get ready to be shown what a government of the people and for the people looks like. President, Senate and House have a magical opportunity to drive the last wooden stake through the heart of progressivism, liberals and stupidity. All they have to do is follow the law and show average Americans of every strip, religion and color an improving economy, safer cities and a more peaceful world. With that you are looking at 12 years of conservative, common sense government that should lift every single boat in the American Constitutional Republic.
I bet you whined like a little bitch when they did it. But now you think it’s a good thing to do since it’s your team doing it.
I see you partially healed up from that tiuesday butt kicking.
If it doesn’t go his way? Yes

That's the problem when Democrats get inpatient and force their BS down our throats, they set precedent that is then used by their political opposition down the road. Naturally Democrats knowing their base is ignorant and compliant to their every whim, tell the people how evil Republican are for using the precedent set by Democrats.
Remember just a couple of weeks ago Democrats were giddy with prospects of being able to get rid of the Filibuster in the Senate if they won the election. That would have allowed them to stack the SCOTUS and make both Puerto Rico and Washington DC States.. Naturally this would have caused outrage at the time. When Republicans regained control and used the same process, Democrats would scream bloody murder ignoring they set the precedent. Just like when Harry Reed changed the process for appointing federal Judges, Democrats screamed when Republicans used the same process.
Bottom line while I may not like it, I can not hold it against Republicans for using the same process Democrats use to shove their leftist agenda down our throats.
