“Amtrak Joe” has long had a personal 1:1 scale toy train set, and some of the craft labor unions have given him big help (votes, money, muscle) over the years. But here is the thing: you think there is easy money that can stick to a person’s hands when it goes to defense contracts? Well, that trick was old hat to railroading before the “last spike” was daintily tapped by a guy in a good suit at Promontory. Amtrak Joe wouldn’t know a magnet valve from a compromise bar, but he has made it clear that all (rail) roads lead to Bidenville. Crack Boy getting put on the Amtrak board was slam-dunk nepotism and a great way for the Biden Family to manage their little “transportation consulting” business.
