Pelosi and Schumer aren't there. Wouldn't the two of them be needed the most to be able to cut a deal with the dems?

Any reason Pelosi isn't there?

They get their own VIP meeting with Trump. Schumer, Pelosi, McConnell and Ryan.

They don't want to be at the shit show. They will likely be fine dining with Trump, Ryan, and McConnell, having a good laugh at our expense (both figuratively and literally).

Dana Bash on CNN was saying with that many people at the meeting it was unlikely any specifics would be hashed out anyway.

To look like they're doing something while doing nothing.

Why? Did she give a reason why?! Don’t they need people to talk about a compromise?

She really didn't go into detail. She made it sound that the number of people in attendance was too large to really get into the details of a compromise.

@seungminkim

Both Graham and Flake say there’s talk of reallocating the 50K lottery visas to some TPS recipients.
Issues:
1. Will Trump accept that?
1. Universe of TPS holders is at least 400,000. Which does not equal 50,000
