Safe bet the standard gaggle if clowns still got their share of the lucre.

Trump had seized on Newsom’s remarks in February that the project as planned would cost too much and take too long. Newsom has shifted the project’s immediate focus to a 171-mile line in the state’s Central Valley, but he said he’s still committed to building the full line.

It sounds like Gov. Newsom is having a hard time making up his mind. No money for half-steppers! lol

MAGA!

What are we going to do without President Trump after Jan 2025?

The whole rail line thing (high-speed or slow as snails) was only intended to spread urban crime and homelessness to the suburban and rural areas...

This has been the principle goal, and totally successful result, of every subway, streetcar, or other type of rapid transit plan over the past 60 years!

YAY! More winning!

One suspects that everyone (including Mister Jerry Brown and Mister Gavin Newsom) knows that the project was sold to voters on a mountain of lies; and, that aside from being a pork feast for unions and other Dem pals, the (ha ha ) "bullet" train will never travel a fraction of an inch.

However, one highly suspects that if Brown or Newsom ever ADMIT the truth (obvious as it is) then they become liable for legal action and even greater public ridicule.

The answer (as best that I can guess) is that they suspend most funding, and PRETEND that it's still a viable project (which is never even was. Ever.)

Newsom's biggest worry?

That would be a California ballot measure that called for a thorough and timely audit of every penny, and an investigation that would names names.

Politicians would let that money go because it was already "spent".

But Trump's a businessman. He's going to want that money back if the project's not going through. Spend it somewhere else in his budget.

democRAT hi-speed train projects are ALL slush-fund boondoggles anyway.

Looks like CA will have to re-purpose the little bit of railroad to a bike path or something. The bridges can keep a bunch of homeless people under them.

A high-speed rail from Los Angeles to Las Vegas might have been something worth having. All lanes on I-15 are solid cars from LA to LV on Friday night, and LV to LA on Sunday night.
