”Either it’s an emergency or not - he’s already lost a lot of leverage in the courts by dragging it out so long...”

I don’t see it that way. If I come home to find my house on fire, just because I initially grab a garden hose in response doesn’t mean I don’t need the fire department to ultimately get the job done. And grabbing the garden hose first says nothing about whether there is a true emergency. Trump is wise to get whatever he can out of this deal, and then fund the rest of the wall via emergency declaration or other method. Getting any significant funding now knocks Nancy and Chuck off their high horses and prevents them from using another “shutdown” for political propaganda. With that accomplished, Trump goes ahead and funds the rest via alternate means.
