“We had a really wonderful, warm conversation. It was a very nice conversation. We talked about, pretty much this. This is what we talked about. This is what everyone is talking about. This is what they want to talk about.”
“He gave me his point of view and I fully understood that. We just had a very friendly conversation. It lasted probably 15 minutes. It was really good. It was really good.”
Hot Takes:
- This is encouraging. Perhaps Biden had some good suggestions.
- Biden’s camp also confirmed the two spoke and said it was “a good call.”
- Sometimes Trump can be surprisingly civil and cooperative.
