May be wrong, but he knows he's damned if he signs it and damned if he vetoes it. If he does veto it, then it goes back to the House and the Senate as a loyalty test.

Another alternative will be that he issues an EO claiming that Congress has been compromised and he is dissolving Congress effective immediately.

It may also why he had MBS to the White House - he wanted to make sure that he could slip out to Saudi Arabia if the first plan failed.

At this point, who knows?!
