So High Speed Rail isn't needed?

We need to slow down, not speed up.

Do you think air travel costs $2.00?

California can't even find enough water to put out a freaking fire. How are they going to build and maintain a exotic rail transportation?

Do you need water to build a railroad?

At least according to trump. Apparently air fare is only $2.00

Which is good because I need to fly back to Kansas and get my ID so I can buy some milk here.

Trump Says High-Speed Rail Isn’t Needed Because ‘You Take an Airplane – It Costs You $2’

The president alleged that high-speed rail would be a less efficient and more expensive alternative than air travel, which in his estimation, costs $2.

“We’re gonna start a big investigation on that because it’s– I’ve never seen anything like it,” he said. “Nobody’s ever seen anything like it. Nobody has ever seen anything like it. The worst overruns that there have ever been in the history of our country. And it wasn’t even necessary. I would have said, you don’t buy it. You take an airplane – it costs you $2. It costs you nothing. You take an airplane. But this got started. And if you have to, you drive, you can drive.”

Trump says some stuff in obvious hyperbole. Rational people know what he means, but it's funny to hear the leftwing clowns say "What? The war wasn't over in 24 hours? That means Trump lied". Blah blah.
Trump's point is air travel is way cheaper than a rail would be. You can go round trip from DC to Orlando for $48. Tell me what transportation is cheaper than that.

Rail travel makes sense in tiny flat countries like denmark. Not in vast countries like the US. Trump understands that. Leftwingers don't.

I've already arrived at my destination. I used the "Get Rich Slow" method. Worked great. I still have my health (considering my age) and most of my marbles.

Of course.
