The catch is that he probably will refuse to put the House bill up if Trump’s bill passes first.
It won’t.
My understanding, unless I’m missing something, is that the Schumer bill is something totally new, a “clean” CR that includes no additional border security funding. If so, then that’s the catch: Mitch lets the Dems take a vote on reopening the gov’t without border security funding in the hopes of spinning that as “proof” that they’re advocates of “open borders.”
