Garamendi has an IQ of about 83. In this case, however, his warning about all things Chinese are valid.

Probably not.
The Chinese don’t need to wipe-out the US Rail system.
The US government market-fixing, the ICC and unions already did it.
“Wipe out”??
How?
Nuke them from Orbit?
EMT burst?
Oh, undercut pricing from US manufacturers who have a very, very limited US market, EEOC, OSHA, EPA, LGBTQRSTUV regulations, etc.
Panama Canal syndrome?
The Chinese built our rail system - give credit where credit is due. With drones and autonomous driving, rail’s days are probably numbered.
And then China can starve.

That would, of course, imply World War III, will anyone be around to ride the rails?

Amtrak is good it all on its own...
Only because politicians have sold out America.
