White House chief of staff Mick Mulvaney presented Donald Trump with an idea. According to the Washington Post, Mulvaney suggested Trump invite GOP lawmakers to Camp David, the presidential retreat in the Maryland mountains, for weekends of schmoozing with Trump’s staff. But the purpose isn’t to discuss policy or politics. Trump wants to “butter up Republicans before the big impeachment vote.”

“The casual itinerary includes making s’mores over the campfire, going hiking, shooting clay pigeons and schmoozing with Trump officials, some of whom stay overnight with lawmakers.

During dinners, Trump has called in to compliment members personally.

Trump has never taken to the rustic mountain retreat, preferring to spend his time, and your tax dollars, at one of his golf clubs or resorts.
