Trump wanted the memo released B/4 he even read it because it affirmed something he already believed
Chris C. is right. Trump still has a grudge against Hillary (we see it frequently in his tweets) and it does not matter if he puts lives at risk with the release of this memo---as long as he thinks it proves him right. damn.
The incredibly simple reason why Trump is going to release the Nunes memo

Trump believes memo could undercut Russia probe
...............My strong suspicion -- based on what I know of Trump -- is that this was never really a debate at all. (On Tuesday night, Trump told South Carolina Rep. Jeff Duncan that he would "100 %" release the memo.)
Trump wanted the memo released before he even read it because it affirmed something he already believed: That top officials at the FBI didn't want him to win and worked to finesse the investigation into Hillary Clinton's private emails so that it didn't end in an indictment for her.
This tweet from Trump -- sent less than a month ago -- makes quite clear his view on the FBI and broader Justice Department:
"Crooked Hillary Clinton's top aid, Huma Abedin, has been accused of disregarding basic security protocols. She put Classified Passwords into the hands of foreign agents. Remember sailors pictures on submarine? Jail! Deep State Justice Dept must finally act? Also on Comey & others"
Trump has long believed that forces embedded within the federal bureaucracy are hell-bent on keeping him from being successful. That belief is, in part, what guided him to fire Comey last May. That belief is what led him to publicly pressure deputy FBI Director Andrew McCabe to resign. (McCabe did so earlier this week.) That belief is what had led Trump to repeatedly rage against Attorney General Jeff Sessions for recusing himself in the Russia interference probe.
And so, when the Nunes memo emerged, it was like a dream come true for Trump. The memo proves his point! He was right all along! Comey and the rest of them were out to get him!
That his own FBI director has urged against the release of the memo because it presents an incomplete and inaccurate picture of the bureau and could do real damage to the intelligence-gathering abilities of the agency is not terribly concerning to Trump.
It proves him right. What else does he need to even think about?
See? Like I said: Simple.
