President Donald Trump on Tuesday said he would talk with Democrat leaders if they reopen the government by approving a Republican-led stopgap funding bill designed to temporarily fund U.S. government operations.
“I would like to meet with both of them but I said one little caveat, I will only meet if they let the country open,” Trump said, referring to requests by Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries to meet “anytime, any place.”
