I hate to hear that the President is reaching out to this weasel. It makes it look like President Trump is desperate and afraid of the shutdown.
I’m pretty confident that Trump is holding all the cards. My bet: He will show Schumer all the damning and incriminating evidence he has on him and will give him a choice: straighten out or be exposed/indicted/imprisoned.
Mr. President, please place the recording device on the table and inform him that you are recording this conversation. Make sure the press is aware that you will release the recording at the close of the meeting.
Disagree...it makes him look like the President that holds all the cards and is giving Chuckie one more chance. Chuckie has to go to the White House after being summoned by the President, think of the optics of that.
It makes it look like Trump did everything he could before Schumer and the Dems shut down gov't.
LOL! Lighten up! Trump is doing this for show.
It makes him look like he is trying to be bipartisan. If Check won’t deal then Trump can say I tried.
No... it makes it look like Trump is trying to avert a shut down.
He's holding all aces in his hand.
Make the outreach to Schumer.
Make Schumer come to him.
Make Schumer an offer you know he will refuse.
Then claim Schumer as the bad guy.
Except to the average Joe, it’s going to look like Trump did everything possible to avert the shutdown; Joe will then blame the Democrats.
“It makes it look like President Trump is desperate and afraid of the shutdown.”
I think meeting with Schumer makes President Trump look ‘in charge,’ reasonable, and Presidential.
“I hate to hear that the President is reaching out to this weasel. It makes it look like President Trump is desperate and afraid of the shutdown.”
No, I see what he is doing. Everything has to be exposed as to being directly the Dems fault. Any direct action on Trump’s part would lead to wailing by the press. Just give them the rope. They must be hoisted on their own petard.
Geez, have you learned nothing over the past year?
Judy dear......
You need to watch “The Godfather”
Schumer was not invited, Schumer was summoned.
Trump will make Schumer an offer he dare not refuse
As fellow New Yorkers, Trump and Schumer go back a long way. Also, as a New Yorker, Trump is Schumer’s constituent. Makes for an interesting dynamic between them.
No. It makes the President look like the adult in the room.
Oh wait. He is.
In any other situation, yes. But this makes it look like Trump is making every honest effort to work with the Democrats. If the vote fails, the Democrats will more likely look like sh*tholes.

He’s pasting Scummer with it.
