You believe Trump tweeted that the next senate leader should support recess appointments as a way to warn the Senate that he might do them so they’d know not to go into recess?
Yes. I am surprised this theory hasn't surfaced in your twitter feed yet. It's coherent, and it explains everything that's happened so far, including the Gaetz nomination. He is the poison pill of going into recess before confirming a cabinet.
Tipping off his opponents so they can block him doesn’t seem like normal Trump behavior.
DON’T let them eat cake.

Getting "blocked" from recess appointments is the point, since getting blocked means not going to recess, which means confirmation hearings, in quick order. If I'm right, AG will be the last cabinet member to be confirmed, keeping a Gaetz recess appointment on the table until the confirmation process is complete. I could be wrong, but this makes sense to me. We'll see how it goes. Just look for whether AG happens to be the last hearing scheduled by the senate leader.

One possibility is to have a confirmation vote for that unpalatable candidate quickly and vote that candidate down. That should remove the threat of recess appointment, at least one with that unpalatable candidate.
Senate majority leader chooses the votes to hold. Thune can put AG at the end of the line. That is the way the majority leader can "support" Trump's plans.
This stuff about senate majority leaders "supporting" Trump's plans for recess appointments, may just be posturing meant to put the specter of recess appointments into everybody's heads. Unless anybody can be clear about the nuts and bolts of a senate majority leader "supporting" senate recess appointments.

A lot of fairly young talent.

When finally assembled, could Mr. Trump's cabinet team picture surpass this one? Yes!
Matt Gaetz alone is smarter than Bohr, Heisenberg, and Einstein combined.

Education is extremely important.

Like the majority of House Republicans?

Why is there going to be a cabinet secretary for a Department that is being shuttered?
Maybe I should apply for a position at DOGE…

To oversee the dismantling?
Always remember, Operation Valkyrie was an act of sedition.

To point out that they don’t need a secretary for a department that is going away.
Oh, and the 80 hours a week thing? They should be looking for people that can do the work in 20 hours per week. Much more efficient. Set an example, DOGE…
