A lot of GOP establishment pukes who hate Trump and have spent nearly a decade trying to defeat him are going to spend the next weeks and months crying about recess appointments and how they are a threat to democracy and the Constitution and blah blah blah.

Pay attention, because it will be a textbook example of how people will disingenuously use a process argument to mask the substantive argument they’re too cowardly to make out loud. In this case, they will claim to be defenders of the Constitutional order and act as though that is their sole concern. They will never admit that the Constitution also allows recess appointments and gives the Senate and House the power to set their own respective rules and recess as they please. There’s no actual constitutional conflict between recess and advise and consent. The Constitution explicitly provides multiple avenues for appointment of executive branch officials.
In reality, they simply don’t like Trump, they wanted him to lose, and having failed at keeping him from winning the election, they will now attempt to thwart the agenda he was elected to implement. They oppose the substance of his policies, but pretend their disagreements are entirely procedural. And they will slur anyone who calls them on their nonsense as being anti-Constitution.
