[See NewsBusters for more.] The journalists at CBS This Morning on Thursday hyped a potential DACA deal between Donald Trump and Chuck Schumer as a “clean” plan in comparison to all the “messy” GOP options. Co-host Charlie Rose touted the idea of geography being a good reason for a deal between the Democrat leader and the President: “Is he simply more comfortable with Chuck Schumer because they're both New Yorkers, one from Queens and one from Brooklyn?” Journalist Nancy Cordes offered this explanation: “I think what it says is that the President likes to be able to not just cut deals, but cut quick deals and he's able to do that with Democrats. He knows that when Nancy Pelosi or Chuck Schumer say that ‘we've got the vote for X, Y and Z' that they're going to be right.”
