High speed trains would be massively (and I do mean MASSIVELY) expensive to build and would require NEVER-ENDING MASSIVE SUBSIDIES. Don’t do it, Donald.

I agree, but it would be so cool to have subways all throughout America going from one city to another like beginning in New York and end up in Chicago like they do in Paris and actually London is the best. I NEVER use the subway in the United States, but will in a heartbeat in London. It’d be awesome if we had London’s Underground....You can go from London to Paris in an hour. We need that badly. I do understand it would be expensive but Trump is a negotiator. It may work out well for all of us.

High-speed trains make more sense in Europe with a denser population and shorter distances between stops, but they make no sense here.
