The simplest answer is that he has never been told "no" in his life. He's in a position of high scrutiny where a large percentage of the things he wants to do is being denied. Travel ban? Noped. Repeal and replace? Noped thus far. Just repeal it then? Noped still. He's not used to it. It infuriates him. So he thinks of it like a business he ran where if someone doesn't do what he wants he just fires them until someone comes along who does.
It of course doesn't really work that way - as we've been seeing with Mueller after Comey and will see more of in the future. For now he's in the "I'm the boss, do what I say or I'll find someone who will" phase. The questions are how long that phase lasts (either by his own adjustments or congress removing him themselves) and, if it does end, what phase happens next.
