President Trump is about to make one of the best deals he's ever made with the next Senate Majority Leader.
He's requiring them to agree to Recess Appointments so that he won't have to wait months & years for his cabinet picks to get confirmed & working.
The Recess Appointment Clause in Article II, Section 2, Clause 3 of the U.S. Constitution states that "The President shall have Power to fill up all Vacancies that may happen during the Recess of the Senate, by granting Commissions which shall expire at the End of their next Session."
Simply put, the clause allows the president to fill vacancies when the Senate is in recess and unavailable to approve. That realistically means he can put everyone in place before the Senate can spend an eternity approving them.
This isn't a new thing, by the way. Every President has been allowed to make recess appointments EXCEPT President Trump because the Senate never wanted to go into recess. They used a process called pro forma sessions, which are a workaround that makes it seem like the Senate is in business, but in reality, they're doing absolutely NOTHING: no votes, no debates, and no legislative business. It is just a tool the Uniparty unfairly used to stop President Trump from using a Constitutional process to create a functioning executive.
If President Trump can strike this deal. The next four years will be glorious FASTER than we can imagine.

他要求他们同意休会任命,这样他就不必等待数月和数年才能确认并开始任命内阁成员。
美国宪法第二条第二款第三条中的休会任命条款规定:“总统有权填补参议院休会期间可能出现的所有空缺,方法是授予委员会,该委员会的有效期应在参议院下届会议结束时到期。”
简而言之,该条款允许总统在参议院休会且无法批准时填补空缺。这实际上意味着他可以在参议院花费很长时间批准之前将所有人安排到位。
顺便说一句,这并不是什么新鲜事。每位总统都被允许进行休会任命,除了特朗普总统,因为参议院从不想休会。 他们使用了一种称为形式会议的程序,这是一种变通方法,让参议院看起来像是在做事,但实际上,他们什么都没做:没有投票,没有辩论,也没有立法事务。这只是 Uniparty 不公平地使用的一种工具,用来阻止特朗普总统使用宪法程序来创建一个正常运作的行政机构。
如果特朗普总统能达成这项协议。未来四年将比我们想象的更快辉煌。
