Yesterday at this time the tone was much different
US House Speaker is on the wires saying that:
- Trump letter to Pelosi said infrastructure must wait for USMCA
Yesterday of course, Pres Trump held a press conference saying infrastructure would not go on as long as the Dems were investigating him.
The tone is a bit different today.
There were other comments this morning from Press secretary Sanders that:
- Trump was willing to talk about dreamers in immigration plan
- White House wants to move forward on debt limit work
- Debt limit work continues at staff level conversations
It was unknown whether the Pres. proclamation yesterday was across the board - including debt limit efforts (everyone wants to avoid a shut down again, and take that "chip" away from Pres. Trump down the road). Anyway, it seems that things are less confrontational today.
PS Pelosi also accused Pres. Trump of a coverup yesterday. There is no talk of that today so far.
So there seems to be a truce of some sorts.
