Something is coming and he knows it will bring him down(his name in history and that hurts his family). Trump warned him this week he would fight back if he kept it up and it would be ugly. You can only play the impending death card for so long and continue down this path. He needs Trump destroyed but is to far gone mentally to realize the smarter play was to go away quietly. Either way, his name is trashed and his family hurt, he is just making it worse unless a coup happens.
We are going to see a lot of retiring and spending more time with the family of the smarter swamp people.
Very odd, not sure what he is trying to do other than stop President Trump on every single issue.
