I’m placing my bets on Trump just forcing a recess of both houses of Congress if their respective leaders do not do it on their own; & he actually can do that!!

I believe he wants to neuter Congress, humiliate them, make them irrelevant. That is what dictators, authoritarians do. He doesn’t want any of those extremely unqualified appointees to be subjected to live streamed confirmation hearings for the American people to see their behavior, & hear about all the skeletons in their backgrounds.
