How is it a temper tantrum?
Being that he campaigned on the wall. He was promised money for a wall last year that never came and it was promised (at last year's EOY Budget) by the same arseholes who refuse to sign it now.
It is hardly a temper tantrum to deliver what is promised or hold out until he gets what he promised and campaigned on and was promised.
In fact it would be dishonest to misrepresent it in those terms because of these facts.
Not to say, of course, that the wall is good, bad or indifferent, the shutdown is a good idea or bad idea, or anything more. In fact it could really hurt his re-election hopes maybe. Anything is possible and within the universe there is likely many reasonable positions to hold over the shutdown. That it is a temper tantrum is not one of them.
