I’m not sure of the power of the minority democrats + 25 turncoat republicans. They would have a majority. Can they then force the floor and force the vote?

If they can, then ask yourself whether there are at least 25 rinos in the House of Reps.

I’m unsure of House procedures in the face of a majority. In the Senate a filibuster can hold everything up, but what can hold up a majority in the House?

I have scant understanding of Senate rules, and less knowledge of House rules.
