Democrats Get Their Meeting with Trump

Punchbowl News: “Schumer and Jeffries have been demanding this meeting with Trump, and now they’ve got it. Will it be a repeat of Trump’s disastrous December 2018 sitdown with Schumer and then Speaker Nancy Pelosi? Or will 2025 Trump be different? Will the president invite in cameras like the last time? How will Jeffries respond in his first-ever sitdown with Trump? There’s lots to ponder.”

“Johnson and Thune should want to be in this meeting to make sure that their negotiating position is represented. Trump likes nothing more than chasing a deal. Of course, the two sides are far apart. But with Trump in a room with two Democrats, you can’t be too sure of something unpredictable happening.”
