President-elect Trump was on with Hugh Hewitt this morning and discussed his approach to getting his biggest reforms passed in Congress via reconciliation.
We told you last week that Trump wanted one bill to pass them all and that is still true. But he is open to passing them in two bills if he can’t get it with one:
President Trump on the reconciliation approach: "While I favor one bill, I also want to get everything passed… The border is going to be secure. We're going to start it immediately… I did it before and we're going to do it again… I have a lot of respect for Senator Thune…… pic.twitter.com/YjPSMJ54wS

Trump also told Hewitt that he will immediately undo the massive oil and gas ban that Biden just implemented on 625 million acres of the continental shelf on the east coast:
PRESIDENT TRUMP: "I see it just came over that Biden has banned all oil and gas drilling across 625 million acres of U.S. coastal territory. It's ridiculous. I'll unban it immediately." pic.twitter.com/mGijm5N6v7
