One of my concerns is that he may be planning to launch some sort of attack against North Korea and will announce that it is already underway when the Senate shows up.

Or, it could be just a power play, wherein he assembles the Senate in "his house" for a dressing down of some sort.

Either way, this is unlikely to end well for Trump.
