WASHINGTON — In a move to address the latest political developments, President Donald Trump is set to meet with Republican senators for breakfast at the White House on Wednesday. This gathering will be the president’s first detailed response to Tuesday’s election outcomes, which saw Democrats secure significant wins in crucial races.

A representative from the White House confirmed to The Hill that invitations had been dispatched to the Republican senators. The breakfast meeting is scheduled to occur before President Trump heads to Florida to deliver a speech at an economic conference.

As of Wednesday, the government shutdown has reached its 36th day, with minimal signs of progress toward a resolution.
