And as I suggested, you agree that racism, etc are bad, and do exist, in the abstract. You just never think any examples of it are properly mentioned, for some reason....
I think most people believe there is a lot of crying wolf involved.

What if Obama appointed Garland right now if the Senate was not in session.

I think it would be for 2 years. Would Trump have to have 60 votes to remove him?

Two years is better than none. I am thinking about America more than Garland.
'Is the Senate in session right now' is the question. Obama would have to have the Senate in recess to do a recess appointment without a vote.

The Republicans were using 'pro forma' maneuvers to keep the Senate permanently in session, to guard against this. Involves having one guy on the floor every day, I think. It does occur to me that if a number of Democratic senators were to unexpectedly show up, they could move adjournment, a vote on which could only be delayed by a quorum call. If the Democratic majority on that day stayed a majority by the end of the role call, they could vote adjournment, giving Obama his chance.
