Well, he could have just made some recess appointments and done away with the need for confirmation right? No he couldn’t have. Why not? Because Mitch McConnell kept the senate in session for the entire term of Trump’s presidency for the express purpose of denying him the opportunity to make recess appointments.

.

It was not McConnell alone who kept the Senate in session to block Trump from making recess appointments.

I was a procedural rule voted on by the Senate.

To pass 100% all 100 US. Senators have to vote in favor .

All it would have taken was (1) Republican Senator to vote NO, and it would not have been possible. That did not happen.

Only (1), let that sink in, when people claim that there is a difference between the D and the R.

So, if this is the reason WHY, is it safe to say that DNI Ratcliffe is also a back stabbing Swamp Creature.
Where was Rand Paul? Where was Ted Cruz?
