Long-shot Biden challenger praises Trump White House for outreach

Dean Phillips gave ex-president praise and criticism and repeated that Biden cannot defeat Trump in the election later this year

Dean Phillips, the Minnesota congressman mounting a long-shot challenge to Joe Biden for the Democratic presidential nomination, praised the Trump White House for its outreach on issues and legislation he worked on and said he had not seen any of that reach-out by the Biden White House".

I don't believe that we've had a president recently that invested in the way one needs to develop ... those relationships and that work ethic," Phillips told Johanna Maska, host of the Press Advance podcast and a former aide to Barack Obama.
