Senate Democrats Introduce $1 Trillion Infrastructure Plan, Offer Trump Support If He Backs It

[Banjo]

The plan includes $180 billion to rail and bus systems, $65 billion to ports, airports and waterways, $110 billion for water and sewer systems, $100 billion for energy infrastructure, and $20 billion for public and tribal lands.

Yeah, right.

Last time the Dems supported an "infrastructure and shovel ready jobs" expendature of $800B, virtually NONE of that money went for that...

Now that the Dems are no longer in control, "we should work together on making America better"?

(Not saying we shouldn't... just pointing out the two-faced nature of the Dems. Similar to their attitude when they had 60 Senate votes. They basically told the Republicans, "... you might as well go fishing, as your vote counts for squat"... and passed Obamacare strictly on party lines. But now that the Dems control neither house nor the WH, they implore that we "work together across both sides of the aisle". Total hypocrites!)

Why would we spend money on tribal lands? Let the indian casinos pay for their own improvements.

I think republicans are perfectly capable of organizing their own slush funds. No thank you dems.
