Democrats Pitch Deal-Making to Trump, PBS NewsHour Reports
Democrats who swept into power on voter backlash to Trump are now pitching ways to collaborate with the president, according to PBS NewsHour.
PBS NewsHour reported that Democrats who swept into power by riding voter backlash to Trump are now pitching ways to collaborate with the president. The report, written by Jonathan J. Cooper of the Associated Press, is headlined as an account of how Democrats are pitching deal-making with the president. The summary states the central point in a single sentence and does not elaborate on the terms of any pitch.
According to PBS NewsHour, the Democrats' pitches involve "playing to his vanity" and his love of making deals, which the report says is meant to propel the Democrats' own agenda.
PBS NewsHour's summary does not specify which offices the Democrats hold. It refers to proposals only through the headline's mention of TrumpCare and commemorative plaques, and it does not describe what either involves.
The summary does not name any Democratic official behind the approach or include a response from the president. It also does not indicate whether any proposal has been accepted, rejected, or advanced.
The Federal Chronicle's account is based on the headline and summary of the PBS NewsHour report, and the full text of the article was not reviewed for this story. Names, figures, and quotations that may appear in the full article are therefore not repeated here.
PBS NewsHour lists Jonathan J. Cooper of the Associated Press as the author of the story, and the summary contains no further detail on timing or location beyond the publication information listed with the report.
