As I understand it—God help me, via an CNN article posted here, if the GOP have their act together they could declassify the memo, according to procedure, in 5 working days—without needing the extra time to go to a broader vote.
Five working days would indeed land it at the foot of of Trump’s SOTU and likely guarantee the largest SOTU audience in history.

And result in the left side of the aisle being EMPTY.

There are some on the conservative side of the spectrum that say Republican congressmen over-spun the implications of the memo.
I am adopting a wait and see approach.

As I understand it, 9yrLurker, the House Intelligence committee is scheduled to vote on doing that very thing. If the vote passes in the affirmative, it gets sent to the President who has five days to approve of the declassification. That is preferable to Trump doing it on his lonesome for political reasons. I saw a guy on Judge Janine, I think, say the vote would pass and this would happen within the week.
Hope it's true.
