Trump only started to think about asking the Democrats when he had pulled the bill. I can't really see what's in it for them. They've got a proven, workable system in place and unless that changes then I can't see them needing to come to the table. Trump may have convinced some of his more diehard followers it is not working but not the public at large; only 17% agreed with his bill.
I think Trump's issue is that he is trying to run the Presidency like a businessman. This doesn't work and we've seen him stumble at Muslim Ban #1, Muslim Ban #2 and Trumpcare/Ryancare. Rather than taking the time to sort each thing out properly, he just moves on to the next thing. That might, though, be his approach given his term of four years.
