"Step 1: The Speaker of the House (presumably Mike Johnson) seeks to adjourn the House for ten days and requests the Senate’s consent to the House’s adjournment.
Step 2: The Senate refuses to provide its consent to the House’s adjournment.
Step 3: Trump adjourns both the House and the Senate for ten days (or maybe two years).
Step 4: Trump recess-appoints his Cabinet officers."
