Wolf Blitzer Lauds Trump for Compromise -- Unlike Those 'Very Conservative Hardliners'

What he does deserve some credit for, Nia, is he says, you know, all of his policy decisions, these are his opening bargaining positions. He knows if he's President he's going to have to negotiate with Democrats in Congress, he wants to come up with something, it may not wind up being perfect the way he would like it. He's willing to negotiate. That's different than some very conservative Republican hardliners who say, "Take it or leave it."
CNN's Nia-Malika Henderson voiced agreement:
That's exactly right. The word "compromise" is essentially a dirty word, and a lot of these folks went into office essentially proposing ideas that never would fly, but certainly are music to the ears of some folks in the conservative electorate.
