Washington D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser described her meeting with President-elect Donald Trump as 'forward-looking' and 'candid' during an interview with MSNBC on Saturday. She noted that Washington, D.C., has a unique relationship with the president compared to other cities in America. Bowser, who has worked with multiple presidents during transitions, said the meeting focused on priorities for both the district and the president in his second term.
MSNBC host Michael Steele, a former RNC chair, asked about D.C. residents' expectations from the president-elect, acknowledging the somewhat contentious relationship during Trump's first term. Bowser emphasized the meeting's productive nature, stating that they discussed shared priorities and aimed to level-set. MSNBC host Symone Sanders-Townsend confirmed that the meeting was not contentious and highlighted that crime was also discussed. Bowser confirmed the duration of the meeting, lasting between 45 minutes and an hour. She expressed hope for continued common ground with the president during his second term and support for a successful inauguration on January 20.
