Funny but a SCOTUS recess appointment would expire just like any other. He’d have a year tops. And if it’s a Republican Congress in 2013 I think it could immediately adjourn thus ending the appointment.
I don’t know about the constitutionality of him appointing himself but he could resign and have Biden appoint him and unfortunately that would be constitutional

I’m not sure that’s the case; but in any event there’s still impeachment for SCOTUS Justices.

I would hate to see an electorate, or a Congress, that would, take it laying down... though the current Congress has been incredibly disappointing on repudiating anything in this administration. (ex. Fast and Furious)
