That actually makes sense; if he feels like the White House is setting him up to fail and hang this all on him as the scapegoat, his best play might be to change the focus and undercut the whitehouse. He's in a pretty-much no-win scenario, but standing up to Trump at the exact moment that everything begins to collapse is a chance to salvage something out of this.
