Jesus fucking christ delete your account you fucking dumbass.

Was *ELON FUCKING MUSK* noticing your tweet and realizing he can cancel TXHSR really worth the likes? Fuck off, if it gets cancelled or they make a larger run at defunding Amtrak, at least we know it’s partly your fault.

And to be clear, there is no ambiguity, TXHSR isn’t “pregnant” or whatever your stupid subsequent joke was. all of us transit advocates literally have one job for the next four years and that is to quietly shut up and take the good news and not post about it. We celebrate good news offline now.

Is there reason to expect this won't get bogged down by lawsuits and regulatory issues?

Trump has said that he wants high-speed rail. I foresee him strong-arming people to get this up and running as fast as possible, but will do nothing to help California HSR

Trump's actually doing one thing good for once

Oil & auto lobby will go insane but it's also hard to imagine it won't be wildly popular with voters

They need to label it the Trump Train ASAP to try to circumvent negative polarization.
