Mark Penn, a former Clinton advisor and pollster, has urged Democrats to consider collaborating with Trump’s administration on issues related to crime. He argues that the party’s current approach to handling crime and border security is ineffective and not producing the desired results. Penn, who has a background in public opinion research and political strategy, is advocating for a more cooperative stance in order to address these pressing concerns.
His call for engagement comes at a time when Democratic leaders are grappling with how to tackle rising crime rates and immigration challenges. Penn suggests that working with the Trump administration could provide new perspectives and strategies that might not be considered within the party’s current framework. While some within the Democratic Party may view such collaboration as controversial, Penn emphasizes the need for pragmatic solutions that prioritize public safety and effective policy implementation.
