Punchbowl News: “We spoke to Hakeem Jeffries Wednesday, the day after Democrats romped to the House majority. We wanted to hear about his plans for legislating and changes he wants to make to the institution.”
”There are a few things you need to understand about Jeffries at this moment.”
”First of all, as of late Wednesday, he still hadn’t spoken to President Donald Trump, Speaker Mike Johnson, or anyone in the White House or House GOP leadership.”
”Trump said Wednesday that Democrats were calling him, asking to make deals. That apparently doesn’t include Jeffries, who, with at least a 255-seat majority heading into the next Congress, is instantly in the driver’s seat in any power battle against Trump.”
