It’s probably the only way he gets the wall funded.
The Bush League Republicans who still dominate the GOP in Congress does not want the Cheap Labor Express shut down.

There are many in the GOP that do not want to build the wall. We all know it. However, many of them are stepping down or retiring this cycle. At this point, based on his own statements recently Trump has calculated that he has to help the GOPe hold power because the alternative is worse.

“... is there a time limit for him to sign or veto it? ...”
A bill does not require a presidential signature,
but 10 days are allowed for a presidential veto.

“... also do a line by line veto ...”
No, there is no such thing.

He won’t. We need the Kavanaugh vote first. Then he can shut it down.

“I doubt this is going to happen, he is not going to do it before the midterms.”
It won’t happen. Maybe it will next round.

Or the next . . . or the next . . .
