Hearing that there's a few politically oriented considerations to be made.
1. A budget
2. This might be leverage for a lame-duck.

Edit: But yes, he could do it if McConnell can convene a quorum. And Merkowski (sp?) already said eff off.

Is there anything the Dems could reasonably do to stop them considering they have control of the presidency and the senate?

No. Again assuming the votes are there. Having said that, I don't know if even that would stop them.

Well then, another twist to a wonderful year. Has Donald Trump released a list of possible candidates?

I was aware of those two (hence why I posted the Cruz meme), I just didn't know if he had released a more extensive list.

Seems awfully convenient that he released those names 10 days ago though.
