Trump offers Democrats talks on immigration and taxes

President Donald Trump has signaled openness to working with Democratic lawmakers on immigration and tax policies following Republican midterm losses, citing economic development as a key area for bipartisan cooperation. Trump told reporters in Florida that immigration, tax cuts, and economic initiatives offer potential consensus points, though he provided no specific legislative details or commitments on policies like H-1B visas. He criticized Congress for stalled action, urging senators to expedite pending bills and nominations. Trump attributed the November 3 election setbacks to congressional inaction and rising oil prices, while appointing Stephen Miller as his incoming chief of staff. The lame-duck session must handle pending legislation before the new Congress convenes in January.
