    Will liberals think it's OK for Dem leaders to work with Trump (who many see as a racist, sexist, etc.) so long as they cut good deals?

        Assuming voters draw these arbitrary lines belies a common-but-fundamental failure to understand that politics is situational. /3

        As a liberal, I'm fine with it if it's for the best of the country. I'm tired of the hypocrisy the debt limit so often reveals.

        Clever framing, but issue is whether Dems should limit the damage (from their point of view) where possible, and the answer is, Of course.

        I am a Dem and I can assure you that my opinion of him will never change. But we can work with him when possible. After all he is president.

        This is an #Evergreen statement but Rs shot themselves in the foot by going with him because he spoke out against immigrants.
