Reposting the query regarding Trump Admin nominations-in-waiting:
Anons, I'm playing catch-up on the following two points.
-
POTUS to adjourn (or convene) Congress as a matter of national emergency,
-
which would allow him to put all of his current backlog of nominations in place without any approval process.
Wouldn't the whips of both Dems and Repubs understand these two points or is there some unresolved question about application under current circumstances?
That is to say, I would expect the whips to know the rules of the game, but are these rules settled and clear in being in effect when invoked by the POTUS? How would disputes about the application of these rules be decided – by joint hearings/votes/resolutions and such in Congress? Surely the SC does not decide a dispute between the other two branches of government or for one branch (legislative)?
For Anons in general who are up on this topic, is there an authentic constitutional crisis in the offing should POTUS act on point 1 or 2 or both?
