Here's the thing about this whole issue.
Trump made a commitment, in front of the cameras, to sign whatever the bipartisan team came up with on immigration. And as usual he has proven himself to be a terminal lying sack of shit. He honors his commitment to the members of Congress and this all goes away, including the possible government shutdown. That's all there is to this story, except for one really fucked up reality...
Trump wants a government shut-down. He sees himself as a big hero to his moronic base if he shuts down the government. I don't believe his cognitive processing is sophisticated enough for him to come up with any other reason for acting like such an asshole.
