Subject: Re: Faster but Vulnerable - Recess Appointment Edition
Trump's floating of the recess appointment idea in the context of the Majority Leader vote suggests that they believe at least one of their significant appointments may not have 50 votes today.

Not necessarily. It took AGES last time for Trump to assemble his Cabinet because the democrats played games to stop him from governing. If there is a mistake to avoid, it's in trusting them to accept losing the election and allowing a new administration to govern.

They won't make that mistake again, so hence the recess appointments.
