Trump is going to FORCE democrats to work! Or adjourn them!

[Syriusly]

With

the congress out of the way he now needs to declare martial law.

With such power he can really drain the swamp and put the traitors in jail....aka......hillary, pelosi, pencil neck, schumer, comey, the head of cnn etc.etc.

Surely I jest? Not that much. hehheh

Long Live The King!!!

And cancel the election, there’s a horrible pandemic going.
ITS FOR THE CHILDREN

I think we are all wondering if Trump may try to do just that. I truly hope he doesn't. But certainly his track record indicates it is something he might do.

Concentration camps for "illegals" already tacitly accepted? Check.

Can they be flipped to hold anyone deemed "a threat"? Check.

Police and "law enforcement" been militarized? Check.

An economic system 3rd world shithole concentrated at the top? Check.

Late stage militarist empire overstretched abroad? Check.

A predatory political/economic system devoid of legitimacy left with nothing but violence and force? Check.

The public already tacitly acclimated to the police murdering unarmed citizens in the strets with impunity? Check.


Everything seems to be in place, all that was missing was an excuse.

Trump asked (Agriculture Secretary) Sonny Perdue how long he's been waiting for his distribution manager to get approved....2 1/2 years.
Distribution...in a time of pandemic. Kinda important.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/graphics/politics/trump-administration-appointee-tracker/database/

Of the 749 open positions during Trump's administration- 510 have been confirmed by the Senate.
150 positions Trump has never nominated anyone.
15 positions Trump has announced but not formally nominated.
Leaving 82 positions that have not been confirmed.

Remember the Senate can hold a vote anytime the Majority Leader decides to hold a vote. Democrats can't stop a vote. Why do you think McConnel is delaying Perdue's buddies nomination?

There’s about to be zero pending nominations.

We shall see whether your Dear Leader manages his attempt to end run the Constitution. Like I said- Trump can try to force the Senate to adjourn- but the Senate can simply choose to ignore his unconstitutional power grab.

I for one look forward to seeing how this plays out.

[Bo Didleysquat]

Pro-forma sessions of Congress are a sham and a dereliction of duty. Trump is doing what he needs to get the job done. Congress has a choice-either come back to work and do your job, or you are adjourned.

Really?
I guess you missed that whole Supreme Court case which told Obama that he couldn't make recess appointments during Senate Pro-forma sessions.

Hmmm as i recall posters here at USMB actually said that Obama's recess appointments during pro-forma sessions were impeachable offenses.

But now that your Dear Leader is doing it.....suddenly you love them.

That is NOT what he wnts to do. If Congress is adjourned, they are not pro-forma sessions, dumbass!

I think by now we've all had time to acclimate to the realization that we really have no system.

You just don't like it when the system does not allow you to do as you wish.

Certainly Trump doesn't like it when the system does not allow him to do as he wishes.

The system says Congress is about to be adjourned.

The system said fuck it, people can die.

Yes, the constitution gives the president the power to adjourn congress. However, this power can only be used when the upper and lower houses can not agree on a time to adjourn themselves.

Yeah, but he doesn't have the authority. He can only do it if they can't agree on when to adjourn themselves.

That's not the case here.

Trump is overstepping.

This is Trump's big ask.

Aren't any of you paying attention?

What are you all talking about right now?

Is it recess appointments by any chance?

And the fact that Congress isn't doing it's job?

What brought this conversation about?

Was it Trump controlling the narrative by making a simple declarative sentence?

Has he used any power to do anything? No?

And yet, here we are discussing the do-nothing Congress not getting their job done.

The guy is a genius.

Far more intelligent than any president in recent history....he can talk off the cuff for hours....biden cannot even put two sentences together if he is not reading from his notes and even then he stumbles.

He sure used more than one simple declarative sentence to tell us how Congress, well the Democrats, are keeping his nominees waiting two years or more. He also threatened to use power he hasn't got to adjourn Congress and make recess appointments, which are temporary.

Yeah, we're TALKING about it.

Just typical Impeached President Trump subterfuge to deflect attention from his massive Coronavirus failed response! He will back down at some point, as he usually does. What a stand up guy!!!! Bigly!!!

 

[Zander]

I prefer adjourn them, get things passed

Not for nothing there dude, but I DID post the definition of adjournment, which means that Congress goes home. If Congress goes home, how in the hell are things going to get passed? They are at HOME not WORK.

Trump can push it through

If Congress is gone, there is nobody to pass laws. Trump can't push anything through, as he isn't part of the Congress which has the sole authority to create and pass laws. The only thing Trump can do is veto or sign them.

He can make recess appointments.

Yes, Zander, he can make recess appointments, but they are only good until the next session of Congress. I was talking to Jtss when he said that if Congress is gone, Trump can push through legislation. I was simply telling him that he couldn't, because Congress is the only part of the government that can write laws.

Recess appointments = A recess appointment must be confirmed by the Senate by the end of the next session of Congress, or the appointment expires. In current practice this means that a recess appointment must be approved by roughly the end of the next calendar year, and thus could last for almost two years.
