Lindsey Graham, R-South Carolina, and Dick Durbin, D-Illinois, seized on this comment as a sign Trump is committed to finding a workable solution on the immigration issue. Trump is saying that Dreamers will have a path to citizenship after “10-12 years.” People like Sens. “Over a period of 10-12 years, somebody does a great job, they’ve worked hard, it gives incentive to do a great job.”īIG news here. “We’re going to get the wall, we’re going to get great border security.”Ĩ. The point here is a) he is hyper-aware of media coverage of him and b) his feelings about reporters are entirely tied to whether or not they have written nice things about him of late.ħ. I’m not sure which reporter Trump is referring to but it doesn’t matter. “Thank you for some of the nice things you’ve said over the recent past.” They give away money at Davos? So that’s why people love it so much!Ħ. “I’m going to Davos to get them to bring back a lot of money.” “I don’t even know if he saw that stuff, but I put it out.”Ĥ. Also, Trump “rarely” puts out a tweet “praising somebody.” Same, honestly.ģ. Trump is referring to a Vanity Fair piece published Monday that alleged Kelly and the President were on the outs. I rarely put out a tweet, praising somebody, but only when they get a false story.” First question: You guys like this guy? So, so Trump-y.Ģ. Trump wanders into a meeting between his chief of staff and a bunch of reporters. “How’s he doing, OK? I think by the way he’s doing great.” I scoured the transcript and flagged a handful of the most notable lines from the President. Trump, as he does, touched on a wide variety of subjects – from Kelly to the special counsel investigation to FBI deputy director Andrew McCabe. It was classic Trump who, despite all of his rhetorical emphasis on “fake news,” is an avid consumer of the news and relishes the back-and-forth banter with reporters. Just before jetting off to Davos, President Donald Trump stopped by a sit-down that chief of staff John Kelly was having with reporters – and immediately started talking.
