Besides, CAN he cancel her trips? She's in a different branch of government.

I'm sure she'll respond adequately. Pass the popcorn, please.

CAN THE PRESIDENT GIVE A SPEECH WITHOUT INVITATION?
Say Trump walked out into the Hall of the House. Could he clear his throat and start giving a speech?

This is where the president might finally arrive at a road block. The House is governed by a detailed set of parliamentary procedures, which make demands of decorum. There are all sorts of rules determining who can speak when and on what, but, in general, as Speaker of the House, Pelosi controls the flow of debate on the House floor. Without express permission from Pelosi, Trump could not start giving a speech in the Hall of the House.




Of course, parliamentary procedures might not be enough to stop the president from speaking, even if Pelosi bangs her gavel and tells him to stop. This would lead us into uncharted territory. Members who speak out of order open themselves up to "censure or such other punishment as the House may consider proper," according to existing rules. But for a non-member speaking out of order, it's hard to tell what exactly could happen. For protesters interrupting House business, the congressional sergeants at arms and other officers will remove the offending parties. Whether or not this would happen for a sitting president is a question that has not yet been answered in U.S. history.

prevent Trump from walking on the floor of the House. McConnell can certainly let him speak in the well of the Senate if he can win a cloture vote to allow it.

I'm speculating on Trump breaking under pressure and going full dictator, or trying to.

We all know that to be his grand ambition, even if he lacks the courage to fully become one.

Pointing that out isn't attacking anyone or advocating violence against anybody.

We are all on the same side here, hopefully.

Fwiw, that would (or should) be a shortcut to ending this madness, I don't believe anyone would actually do such a thing for him.

our Democratic Congressman and Reps would go to a dog and pony show when there is "shutdown" of the government taking place.

The fucking jerk thinks it's all about him, and let's see if it's televised by his so called fake media, let his ratings tank like him.

Or will he hold a rally???

If he wants to give a speech, he can give it in the driveway but not in the House.

I hope he gets so bent out of shape over Ms. Pelosi's power and firm grasp of the reins that it drives him into a catatonic state but only long enough to remove him from office. Then I hope he is lucid for the rest of his life in prison.

He'll have to hold a rally with paid attendees.

What could be more perfect? Empty words...empty room. Just let there be one camera recording the bloviating bastard's non-event, unknown to him, so that we can later enjoy the absurdity of his performance if we so choose.

Could there be more of an ASS?

he clearly doesn't understand that the Afghanistan trip isn't a pleasure excursion for her but a business trip on behalf of the United States. She might not really even want to go but probably sees it as her duty. He doesn't get that there is a very good, entirely supportable security-based reason for rescheduling the SOTU address until after the shutdown, presenting it in writing or giving it on TV from the Oval Office, all of which would fulfill the constitutional requirement of a report to Congress. But Spanky wants to see and hear the GOPers cheer for him as he insults and demeans the Democrats, the FBI and Bob Mueller, and he wants to do it now, while the government is shut down. Pelosi's trip, however, is not a publicity stunt, and he's not hurting her in the least by trying to cancel it (I'm not sure if he can even do that). He just doesn't understand that most things in government aren't, or at least shouldn't be, personal.
