“Next step is really for the White House to sit down with Democrats, and discuss their asks and negotiate,” said a Senate GOP aide. “This is the legislative process. If they have suggestions, then now they need to negotiate.”

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) likewise shifted decision-making to the White House when asked Sunday about the bipartisan bill from Alexander and Sen. Patty Murray (D-Wash.).

“If there's a need for some kind of interim step here to stabilize the market, we need a bill the president will actually sign,” McConnell said on CNN. “And I'm not certain yet what the president is looking for here, but I will be happy to bring a bill to the floor if I know President Trump would sign it.”

Democrats, though, are pushing back on the idea of additional talks, saying they already negotiated a fair deal.

1. Dead Mitch

The rest of the country knows he'll sign any legislation named after himself. Why don't you? My guess is that you've never worked with children before.
