He's clearly pissed about signing it, but he signed it anyway. The March for our Lives is happening tomorrow and is surrounding the White House. He knew that if the government shut down, he'd get raked over the coals for flying to Mar-A-Lago with everything shut down, so he did it just so that he can get away.
WaPo: "Flake warns Trump of impeachment remedy if Mueller probe is halted"
Sen. Jeff Flake, one of President Trumps most prominent Senate critics, told The Washington Post in an interview Tuesday that he would support impeachment proceedings against Trump if the president ends special counsel Robert S. Mueller IIIs investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election without cause.
Were begging him: Dont go down this road. Dont create a constitutional crisis. Dont force the Congress to take the only remedy that Congress can take, said Flake (R-Ariz.). To remind the president of that is the best way to keep him from going down that road. To fire Mueller without cause, I dont know if there is any other remedy left to the legislative branch.
Flake compared any possible effort by Trump in the coming weeks to end the Mueller probe to President Richard Nixons infamous 1973 firing of the special prosecutor during the Watergate scandal.
