About Trump's claim that he'll adjourn Congress to get what he wants, let's be clear: In order to do so, McConnell would have to bring the Senate back & have them vote to adjourn. Pelosi would then bring the House back & they'd have to amend the Senate’s adjournment resolution
2-by voting against it. Then the Senate would have to disagree to the House’s amendment. Then, & ONLY then can Trump adjourn Congress. The odds are remarkably slim. Pelosi can essentially ignore the resolution from the Senate, killing the disagreement Trump needs to adjourn
3-unilaterally. Some GOP say it’s privileged, and thereby gets immediate consideration, but no-Pelosi can turn off the privilege in a rule with a simple majority vote and then she doesn’t have to touch it.
No disagreement, no adjournment from Trump.
