Trump is Doing Something Obama Failed to do: LISTEN TO PEOPLE

Barack Hussein Obama came off as a very aloof, arrogant, condescending “leader.”

His “I have a pen, and a phone” style was a turn off for most in D.C., even many Democrats who complained that the president was not accessible, and did not listen to other points of view.

Of course, it’s difficult to reach out and listen, when you’re hell-bent on shoving your ideological agenda down everyone’s throat.

Thankfully, that isn’t President Trump’s style.

Unlike Obama, Trump not only reaches out to others but like a good leader, he listens too.

Elements of Donald Trump’s presidential style are already emerging and they must be discouraging to his critics.

It’s easy to miss things that do not happen. But perhaps you too have noticed a decline of trivial Trump tweets, starting spats and news cycles many mornings.

Is it possible the demands and needs of being president are steering the new politician into more disciplined behavior? At least for now.

Those demands include selling his keystone policy initiative to the country. And by country, I mean the 535 elected members of Congress, who will determine the fate of the replacement for the sinking USS Obamacare.

Trump has been meeting all along with congressional leaders. Now he’s had, of all people, Sen. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina over for lunch. Then Mr. and Mrs. Marco Rubio and Mr. and Mrs. Ted Cruz came for separate social dinners. Social is what Washington calls mealtime lobbying, and what no one expected last year during the primary campaign when Trump mocked those men.

The other evening the Trump White House had key committee members in for drinks and social bowling.
