Apparently, he did not give much notice….
White House sources tell @CBSNews the military aircraft flying Pelosi overseas was due to take off at 3pmET.
Trump’s letter ‘postponing’ the trip was released by the White House at 2:12pET.

WH official says Pelosi’s trip “would have guaranteed” that federal workers remain without pay “because she would not have been here to negotiate any kind of deal.”
Still, the official says, Trump “made clear in the letter she can still go, but must do so commercially.”
