The meetings come as Republican leaders in the House and Senate have debated the best strategy to secure quick wins after Trump is sworn in.

"I'm angling to be named the pope of Greenland," Fetterman told reporters on Capitol Hill after confirming the meeting.

Democratic Sen. John Fetterman accepted President-elect Trump's invitation to visit him at his Mar-a-Lago club, the senator said in a statement provided to ABC News.

Fox News senior national correspondent Aishah Hasnie reports on who will attend President-elect Donald Trump's dinner at Mar-a-Lago on 'Special Report.'

President-elect Trump is hosting a group of GOP governors for dinner at Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach, Florida, Thursday evening, including Ron DeSantis, Glenn Youngkin and Kim Reynolds.

Reports that Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) will be the first Democratic lawmaker to visit the incoming president at his Mar-a-Lago golf resort — coupled with his comparison of MAGA flirtations of taking Greenland to the famed Louisiana Purchase — provoked an immediate stream of reaction Thursday from political observers across social media.
