You and Alan might both be right that Trump made a request to congress, although I have not heard or seen it. But "orders?" How does Trump "order" congress to do anything, while president or ex-president?

Also, how can you say for sure that Trump wanted the legislation passed just to boost his campaign?

The legislation called for the legalization of thousands of migrants per day. I can't blame anybody for rejecting it.

The only time Alan is ever right is when he's not talking about politics.
