Trump: The quicker fucker-upper
Guys, while we were all watching Cheetolini getting impeached, he was working his usual white magic:
Trump slashed Puerto Rico’s Medicaid money as part of budget deal
President Donald Trump intervened to cut the federal government’s Medicaid funding for Puerto Rico as part of a larger government spending deal, according to four sources with knowledge of the discussions.
The budget deal unveiled by lawmakers this week allocates up to $5.7 billion in Medicaid funds for the island over two years — instead of $12 billion over four years that Republican and Democratic leaders on two key congressional committees had endorsed after months of negotiating a long-term financial path for Puerto Rico.
Thin orange-skinned racist Prznint Stupid and his pocket Nazi Stephan Miller have slashed Puerto Ricans access to health care, which many of the Hurricane Maria’s victims still desperately need. So his abuse of power is not just Comrade Stupid trying to get another country to interfere in our elections, he is also abusing our fellow Americans because the Mayor of San Juan Carmen Yulín Cruz Soto said some mean (ACCURATE!) things about him.
Mock Paper Scissors 
If it is all spread out, as in released by the year or the month, that doesn’t sound that bad.
5.7 / 2 = 2.85 per year
12 / 4 = 3 per year
So it is still looking like a cut, but since these numbers are rounded, which way the rounding went could make the numbers look either better or worse. I mean, still a cut even if it is a cut in the length of time covered so the whole thing will have to be rebudgeted and approved in half the time, but it could be a lot worse, especially with trump involved.

I’m surprised I haven’t heard anything about funding for his Wall being a large part of the negotiations. Is he slipping, or is he willing to make a few concessions, in order to not have a Gov’t. shutdown?

He’s probably just distracted. He doesn’t seem to be really good at multi-tasking, and he does have a couple of things on his plate.
