I’m sure they wouldn’t run a new high speed service over existing infrastructure without carrying out any necessary checks and upgrades.Actually it might be infrastructure as this was on an existing bit of the route. Rumours that it might be driver error (speed). That doesn't change the sociopath's first tweet and political pointscoring rather than sympathy to victims.
But he's also cutting Amtrak's subsidy for some routes so even his infrastructure spending plans have a downside.

They might have borrowed their "Experts" from Network Rail....
Going back to that story. If the driver was speeding at 80 mph on track built for 30 that's a serious error which if deliberate should get the book thrown at them. I suspect though it's a new line and he was briefed wrongly on line speeds. It'll all come out in the investigation at I await another crass Shitgibbon's I told you so tweet after.

Absolutely right.Just caught up on the thread. Same old.
Same old Trump being an absolute **** and being called out for it.
Same old people defending him in spite of all evidence that points to his total ineptitude and stupidity.

The concern, if I read it rightly from reports online, is not that Trump may sack Mueller, but DAG Rosenstein, Mueller's boss.
At present, Mueller has to report regularly to Rosenstein with updates and the sheer fact that there is no sign of any halt to proceedings, suggests that Rosenstein is satisfied with what's happening.
However, should Trump replace Rosenstein (who he recently called "weak"), with a more sympathetic person to his cause, then...

There was someone I heard yesterday saying that there is resistance in Congress to spending on infrastructure in order to pay for tax cuts.
How can spending on infrastructure pay for tax cuts?

He'd nominate his son as well!

They're already adding over a trillion dollars to the debt for the tax cuts, infrastructure spending would make it worse. If anything they'd rather take the money earmarked for infrastructure and give it to their mega-donors through more tax cuts.How can spending on infrastructure pay for tax cuts?
