45 hinted at willingness to let the July 4 date "slip" but then started doubling down again.

Huge bills like this normally take almost a year to craft and because of this back and forth between chambers, usually end up with a "Joint Conference Committee" with members from both chambers, who are tasked to work on a SINGLE bill that both House and Senate would eventually vote on.

This trying to do it in 4 - 5 months was idiotic (for them), was mandated by someone who before 2017, had zero experience in any elected office nor knowledge of how government operates, and done with the intent to have a symbolic "show" to correspond with a holiday.
