Trump and Musk advocate for recess appointments to expedite key government staffing

Donald Trump is pushing for the next GOP Senate leader to allow him to make recess appointments, which would let him fill key positions without Senate votes. This approach aims to speed up staffing, as Trump faced delays during his previous term. Elon Musk supports Trump's strategy, arguing it is necessary for enacting change. However, some Republicans express concerns about bypassing the Senate's confirmation process, which could undermine the separation of powers. Trump's plan could allow him to appoint officials quickly, but it requires Senate cooperation to adjourn. Critics warn that this could set a troubling precedent for future administrations.
