David Axelrod Calls for Bipartisanship as Trump Prepares for Second Term

The Democratic strategist expresses hope for cooperation but questions Trump's willingness to work with Democrats.

David Axelrod, former Obama adviser, stated on CNN that he hopes President-elect Trump succeeds in achieving his agenda, as it would benefit the country.
Axelrod expressed skepticism about Trump's willingness to collaborate with Democrats, citing his past behavior and social media activity as evidence.
Trump has pledged to lower prices, secure the border, reduce crime, and end foreign wars, but Axelrod questioned whether he will prioritize unity over personal grievances.
During his victory speech, Trump emphasized the need to move past divisions and unite the country, stating that success would foster national cohesion.
Some Democratic leaders, including Chuck Schumer and Bernie Sanders, have shown interest in working with Trump on bipartisan issues like immigration and defense spending.
