Don’t know. He rambled on for about twenty minutes about his early life. Then near the end, he brought up AMTRAK. Yeah, just what we need.

Heard him say something about there is more money in this bill for trains than it cost to build AMTRAC.

I love the idea of train travel, however, Amtrak has been horribly mismanaged for decades. It came about because the freight railroads what are used to run passenger trains as well couldn’t make any money due to these new things called airplanes.

Amtrak still seems to be stuck in the past about the needs of the traveling public. For example, if I can get free Wi-Fi going hundred miles an hour at 35,000 feet, Watch a movie, etc. How can these idiots not figure out a way to get fast reliable Wi-Fi on a train. They chose the dumbest option, which is to rely on cellular networks which best cover roads, No the more remote areas were train tracks can be found, even in places like the northeast corridor.

We need to pay closer attention to our record players.

He could have used the Amtrak story as a segue to what a train wreck his presidency has been.
