I think McConnell was behind a lot of the bad personnel choices Trump made. No one could be confirmed in the Senate without his ok. I assume McConnell would give Trump a list of people he would allow and Trump had to pick one. And correct me if I’m wrong but I don’t think McConnell ever allowed the Senate to recess so Trump couldn’t make ANY recess appointments.
you’re absolutely right, mcconnel would not allow any recess apointments
Lisa Murkowski locked in nine pro-forma sessions during the August '17 recess, a move that required the consent of EVERY senator.
McConnell has become senile and has been a rino for a long time. He always shows up with the same rinos standing behind him showing support.
