You're making the assumption that the senate is going to do their job. 
Trump can make recess appointments. It's then up to the various senate 
committees to hold confirmation hearings. There is no timeline for this 
in the constitution.
Don't be surprised when trump convinces the senate to take a recess so 
that he can appoint his cabinet picks, then take no confirmation action 
when they return. Think a republican senate won't abdicate their 
responsibility? I have two words for you: Merrick Garland.
