“good will”

Who among us is familiar with the above phrase these days?

Please, don’t bother with any show of hands…

There was another gathering of the Donnie, Chuckie and Miss Nancy Jamboree earlier today at the White House.

Democratic congressional leaders emerged from that meeting, and with cameras blazing, announcing that Donald John Trump had agreed to pursue a $2 trillion infrastructure plan to upgrade the nation’s highways, railroads, bridges and broadband.

I wonder if the word ‘D-E-B-T’ was mentioned by anyone??? 

How the fudge will the country hope to finance this project???

This was the first substantive sit-down between Trump and Democratic leadership since the 35-day government shutdown last winter unfolded at a tense moment in the history of this great republic.

We ALL remember that fiasco…when ALL parties decided to act like they were fighting over the last dance and who would partner up with whom, except for Pastor Pence [go back and review the tape!].

Well, NOT today.

Everyone seemed to like the sound of the music at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue on this last day of April.

Senator Chuckie Schumer (D-NY), the minority leader, said that there had been “good will” in the meeting and that it was “different from some of the other meetings that we’ve had.”

Speaking alongside Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), he said the group planned to meet again in three weeks, when The Weave was expected to tell them how he planned to actually pay for the ambitious project.

There’s still time to go off-shore with the family trusts…but, for heaven’s sake, don’t wait!

It’s a gilt-edged certainty, the GOP payment plan will involve: cutting Social Security and Medicare; complete revamping of Medicaid; massive reductions in Veterans’ Benefits;  closure to dozens of VA healthcare facilities; elimination of the EPA; serious cuts to medical research/facilities; and, gutting countless social safety-net programs for impoverished citizens and seniors.

‘Good will???????????????????????
