3. Is this his plan to have states raise taxes to pay for infrastructure to get partial matching funds

Thus negating any measly middle class tax cut?


Or is this his plan for public/private partnerships where the public gives up the resources and private companies do the construction and we get to pay tolls/a perpetual use tax?

4. He is freaking delusional...

Where’s the money coming from Donnie? You’ve already ask for troop increases to hep your fight in places like the Middle East!! You’re actively pushing for a massive increase to the deficit to fund your unneeded corporate tax scam!

He has no more intention of building infrastructure than he does anything else he says. Just opportunistic bullshit to calm the masses.
