Both sides made bipartisan noises Wednesday in the wake of Tuesday’s seismic shift in Washington power; let’s all hope it truly opens an era of lawmakers working together for the American people.
asserted
lawmakers → make → people
That’s what most voters want, but it’ll mean both Republicans and Democrats looking past their differences and opening up to principled compromise.
asserted
Republicans → ’ → compromise
Again, the initial signs are good: “I can work with [Democrats] on a lot of things,” President Donald Trump said, pointing to immigration as one area in particular as ripe for cooperation.
He not only can “get along” with Dems he said; “they’ve already called” to “talk about things, and that’s fine.
asserted
that → work → things
Trump correctly notes that, despite their new majorities, Dems won’t have enough votes to override his veto, so they’ll have to work with him to get anything passed.
asserted
anything → note → him
House Speaker-to-be Hakeem Jeffries (D-Brooklyn) offered his own olive branch, vowing: “We are ready, willing and able to find bipartisan common ground with the other side of the aisle” to “bring about meaningful change.”
asserted
We → offer → change
His top priority: “the affordability crisis” — though only time will tell if he accepts that compromise there means bending on such things as the rush to end all fossil-fuel use, which is driving up energy costs.
asserted
which → tell → costs
Incoming Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (also D-Brooklyn; can we hope for inter-borough amity with the prez from Queens?) was more defiant, declaring: “The days of Trump’s supplicant Senate are over.”
But he still nodded to the larger point: “Voters did not give us the majority so we can do whatever we want,” he admitted, “they entrusted us with the majority to do what they — the American people — want.”
asserted
they → income → what
Now he just needs to admit that they want both sides to bear down and work together.
asserted
sides → need → ?

Dems → eye → blowout
Also encouraging: Sen.-elect James Talarico (D-Texas) cites “a wide variety of issues that [Dems and Trump] can work together on,” including immigration reform, cutting red tape, promoting housing and lowering costs for Americans.
asserted
Dems → cite → Americans
More: “We have to build bridges in this country, we have to repair the ties that bind us together”; people are upset with the “extremism” on both sides.
asserted
people → have → sides
Talarico even praised Trump on a red-flag issue: “He has done a better job than the previous administration in securing our border.
asserted
He → praise → border
Obviously true, but very few Dems have dared say so: Can others, to deliver for the America people, join him in recognizing where Republicans have done well — and resist shooting down good ideas just because the GOP backs them?
asserted
GOP → dare → them
Of course the party’s crazies will resist; they want Schumer and Jeffries to hold endless show trials of Republicans, as well as to push for radical agendas that will go nowhere amid the gridlock.
asserted
that → resist → gridlock
Democrats serious about progress will push the extremist loudmouths (including the antisemites) to the margins, where they belong.
asserted
they → push → margins
Republicans, too, will need to face down their cranks and kooks.
asserted
Republicans → need → cranks
For a decade, Democrats’ approach was all-out #Resist Trump; can they move on?
asserted
they → move → decade
One good start would be joining to pass Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse’s bipartisan permitting bill ASAP: It speeds up approvals for an “all of the above” approach to energy, both green projects and fossil-fuel ones, to directly address affordability.
Don’t just talk cooperation; stand down now, and start working together for the people.
asserted
It → join → people
