he White House is planning to invite a group of moderate House Democrats to meet with President Trump, two sources said.
Democrats from districts President Trump won in 2016, including members of the Problem Solvers Caucus, will be invited to the meeting, according to two GOP sources. Their hope is that freshmen Democrats in these swing districts might be more interested in getting credit for looking like they want to problems than in denying Trump a wall.
The goal: They are trying and isolate and peel off these Democrats. House Democratic aides note that there has been no sign these Democrats are in danger of leaving the fold.
The White House had put together a draft list of the Democrats theyd invite, according to a White House official, who said theyd only invite members who they believe would be willing to buck House Speaker Nancy Pelosi.
If Pelosi wont even start to negotiate, well go around her, the official said.
Multiple sources have suggested the White House is considering a shift from hammering Pelosi and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer over their refusal to support a wall a tactic that has gotten them nowhere to engaging new, moderate Democrats in the hopes of cobbling together a bipartisan deal that includes some wall funding.

And make sure there's lots of cameras....
He is inviting Dem Congress critters who were elected in states that President Trump won in hi9s presidential election. They were elected by promising their constituents that they would support President Trump and work with him.
Now they will be revealed as either liars or promise keepers.
We will soon see.
The lair list will be published. The liars will be accosted one way or another, quite publicly.
“You know if the Dems were smart, they would advocate immediate amnesty for all illegals in exchange for immediate border security.”
They should have taken the DACA deal a year ago.
It'll be awhile yet before he declares an emergency... what, a couple of weeks yet? Place your bets.
She’ll fit in so well with the others who make a career out of dancing around the real issues.
Yes. Unless the Dems are crushed into a cave in, the government stays shut down which we love!!
HA HA HA HA HA!!!! Good One!!!!!! Love it!!!!
But the article said MODERATES! those two gals are lib tards.
Isn’t Trump famous for completing construction projects ahead of schedule? They can litigate all they want, but by the time the case is settled one way or another, the wall is built. What then, tear it down? Not going to happen once it’s built. Even the Dems couldn’t get support for tearing down the wall once it’s built - which is why they’re fighting so hard to keep it from getting built.
