Bubba had about 140 recess appointments. Obama had 32. Reagan had the most...almost 400.

Are these the same people that were cheering when Biden’s handlers appointed luggage thief Sam Brinton and sexually confuse Admiral Rachel L. Levine, MD to high level cabinet post?

The results when you lower the standards are always bad.

He was better than the alternative, but yeah, turned out to be an establishment creature.

That’s funny how Obama had the least number. And why not? He had a willing Congress to rubber stamp his picks.

Didn't Obama use recess appointments? And Geo W Bush too.

IIRC Trump didn't use any in his first term.

Another factor in Trump’s favor is his power to veto anything and everything the Senate may send his way for a signature. Especially raising the debt ceiling.

Unless they approve Gaetz, Hegseth, etc.

So true. Lowering standards opens the door to mediocrity.

“Especially raising the debt ceiling.”

The debt blew past $36T without a mention from anyone on the Hill.

What needs to be examined is the time between the appt and the apointee being either confirmed by the Senate or leaving the office, not simply the recess appt.

"IIRC Trump didn't use any in his first term."

He couldn't. McConnell kept The Senate in session so that there was no recess. Trump has learned from that and he is going to be aggressive now.

He had a Democrat-majority Senate and House to rubber-stamp his appointments. .at least at the start.
