Trump should call in McConnell and Rino and agree to an official recess and then make a recess appointment. They would be powerless to object and heads would explode.

Following is a list of recess appointments that have been made to the Supreme Court:
Thomas Johnson - August 5, 1791
John Rutledge(as Chief Justice) - July 1, 1795
Smith Thompson - September 1, 1823
Levi Woodbury - September 20, 1845
Benjamin Robbins Curtis - September 22, 1851
David Davis - October 17, 1862
Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr. - August 11, 1902
Earl Warren (as Chief Justice) - October 2, 1953
William J. Brennan, Jr. - October 15, 1956
Potter Stewart - October 14, 1958

Only John Rutledge was subsequently rejected - all the others were eventually confirmed.
