No matter what your point of view or which side of the political aisle you are on, it’s a certainty that progress is being made.
Obamacare provides a perfect example.
On Tuesday, President Trump called a meeting of Republican senators to discuss Obamacare.
Heading into the meeting there were four Republican senators against the replacement bill.
Progress Delayed is Progress Made
Following the meeting, Senator McConnell says: ‘It’ll just take us a little bit longer’.
“We made good progress,” he told reporters after the roughly hour-long huddle in the East Room.
“We’re not quite there, he added. “But I think we’ve got a really good chance of getting there. It’ll just take us a little bit longer.”
Close to Agreement
Tuesday afternoon Trump proclaimed Senate GOP ‘very close’ to agreement on health bill
President Trump said Tuesday afternoon that Senate Republicans are getting “very close” to passing their embattled plan to repeal and replace ObamaCare, but added that if it fails, “that’s OK.”
“I think the Senate bill is going to be great,” Trump said during a photo-op ahead of a meeting with nearly every Republican senator at the White House. “So we’re going to talk and we’re going to see what we can do. But we’re getting very close.”
The Bill is going to be great, but it’s OK if it fails.
