"The senator shared a brief recap of his meal with the president which happened in January, right before Trump's second inauguration during an interview with Lara Trump on her Fox News program, My View, on Saturday night. [For] that experience, I would use the same words my friend Bill Maher uses gracious. Absolutely, Fetterman said. It was pleasant and it wasn't a show or anything. it was just a conversation, and we might could things we agree on, and I thought it was a good conversation."
"Fetterman then asked Why wouldn't the senator of the state that carried him in the election have dinner with the president? If the answer is merely because he is a Democrat and Trump is a Republican, Fetterman said he is not buying it. It's not about bending a knee.' It's about having a conversation with the president, and I think that's entirely appropriate, Fetterman added."
Sen. John Fetterman dined with President Trump in January, just before Trump’s second inauguration, and described the president as a gracious host. Fetterman called the meal pleasant, conversational, and not a show, noting they identified things they agree on. Fetterman questioned why a senator representing the state that carried Trump would avoid meeting him solely over party affiliation and rejected the idea that meeting the president equals bending the knee. He criticized Democrats for mishandling the border, refused to compare Republicans to Nazis, and urged both parties to cooperate to end the government shutdown quickly.
