I doubt theyre going to get anything extra from the fed on this (if they get anything) once Trump takes office.
The funny thing is that Trump is willing to spend federal money on infrastructure, but California is not even trying to work with him.
I also suspect that he would like bigger and better versions of what we've got (highways, LAX), rather than a new train system that will be an ongoing drain and may or may not be well-used.

Trump would look at the budget and projections by California analyst's and have his staff rerun them. Trump will throw the plan in the trash can as stupid, tell the world and move on.

That’s because he wants to spend money on infrastructure that works and that’s not the infrastructure CA wants to blow money on.

couple of points
1) CALexit 2018 is a good thing
2) The bullet train should be fully privatized.
3) Even with the cost overruns, graft, and fraud the bullet train is still cheaper than building a superhighway
