Whatever. We still need to get out of Afghanistan and spend the money on rebuilding bridges and dams in America

If Trump loses, a big reason will be he never came through with that infrastructure spending for the decimated Rust Belt. He talked about it at all his 2016 rallies, but once in office he let Ryan and McConnell block it

Infrastructure doesn’t need to be rebuilt. It’s perfectly fine the way it is, with occasional repairs to keep roads flowing and bridges up. Civil engineering boondoggles have been with us forever. Japan has spent copious amounts on bridges and roads to nowhere. It’s still stuck in a multi-decade slump. And accumulated a government debt to national output ratio 2x Uncle Sam’s.
