We Had It All - a Cynical Look At Trumpeting

We have it all Indeed we do, both me and you. The scandal crawling beneath the sheets, outrageous claims shouted in the streets; the gropes, the lascivious touches, firm untruthful lies and only after much denial, comes the story chastised. These are, shall we say, past almost forgotten indiscretions made by so many legislative ineffective legends as much more rises to a level of unanswered questions. It's a power play, a need of complete control how it is obtained is a wonder to behold. Deflect the truth and place solid blame on predecessors who once reigned. Could we just focus here this was suppose to be a turn around year instead we throw away the progress made, everything for which we already paid. Months passed with little done except for slippage on equality and guns, no compromise, discussion or lack thereof pains into the cold and dark of April rains. The future held in promises begins to erode and wane.
