Trump wants adjourn both the Senate and the House?

He feels he needs to fill the open vacancies on his staff and want them to vote on his people who he wants in those jobs! In other words, he want to back door the vote and use his constitutional power to appoint someone who won’t go against him! Ugh! Trump is getting more dangerous by the second! He has had over 3 years to fill these openings and now wants them now while we are in pandemic? Pathetic and weak, lame to boot!

and McTurtle will (pretty much) ram them through? What *is* the current state of the House/Senate anyway? Are they on recess ATM? Aside from a few Democrats, it's like radio silence while Trump goes on a new tear every single day.

... with his inaction, his narcissism, and his incompetence.

Slim Man Jar-Jar is now czar of his response. Nepotism writ cruelly large and tragically.
