Many in the media have spent the last week hyperventilating over a phony writer’s opinions, but the American people just witnessed President Trump lead arguably the most transparent, substantive policy discussion with Congress – maybe ever.
It’s more evidence of President Trump delivering on his promise to tackle tough issues like immigration for the American people.
I can never remember seeing a president convene a discussion of an issue with this many congressional voices and this many viewpoints being discussed publicly. Pretty remarkable day at the White House.

Also: I have covered Washington/politics for 2 decades. I have NEVER seen a president invite the press in to film negotiations with Congress.

Trump smart for opening immigration discussion to press. Public gets to see deal making POTUS at his best.

That was great @realDonaldTrump. You should do it again in the future.

BREAKING: Brilliant move by POTUS - in the middle of the Wolff onslaught - he allows LIVE coverage of him working the table with Dems/GOP on immigration. Thoughtful, policy proficient and determined to get a deal.

.@WolfBlitzer gives credit to the WH for opening the bipartisan immigration meeting up to cameras: "I don't remember when a White House has allowed TV cameras in such a meeting."
