Summary
Senate GOP leader Mitch McConnell reportedly warned that there will be no recess appointments, directly opposing Donald Trump’s plan to bypass Senate confirmation for controversial cabinet nominees, including Matt Gaetz.
Gaetz has faced allegations of drug use and sexual misconduct.
McConnell’s stance sparked widespread discussion about a looming constitutional showdown.
Critics argue recess appointments could undermine Senate authority and pose national security risks.
Observers question McConnell’s influence, noting potential leadership changes, while others see this as a critical test of Senate integrity against Trump-aligned Republicans.
When the worst guy starts fighting a twice as worst guy, you have a relative good guy to root for.
The enemy of my enemy is still my enemy, but I want to see the former hurt the latter first.
If my enemies destroy each other, I’m certainly saved some effort. Go for it, champ!
This enemy of my enemy is not my friend, the moment is merely a temporary truce for the greater good.
