Bold to assume he would build something for the benefit of the peasant class. Or create something where he cannot profit from financialy.

Don't trans people hate trains too?

[–] Takumidesh@lemmy.world 106 points 1 month ago (5 children)

If trump managed to build effective high speed rail that goes coast to coast, hits more than just NYC and LA, and is affordable, I think history would probably end up forgiving him for a lot of shit.

Never gonna happen though.

I wouldn't trust it for a second. They'd use it to move minorities into camps more efficiently

[–] Sergio@slrpnk.net 11 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Yeah, they would arrest more Latinos without due process and have us build the rail as slave labor (contracted out to their corporate buddies, ofc.)

Yeah fuck it I'll support the Trump train

[–] gmtom@lemmy.world 38 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Honestly at this point, we should just all fully get behind this tactic as I think it genuinely has a good shot of accomplishing more than taking politics seriously.

The giant, gaping flaw in your idea is that it requires leftists to all rally together and cooperate on a unified plan and actually work together.

With America's amazing track record of spending big on repairs and maintenance to infrastructure, I can see absolutely nothing going wrong with this at all.

[–] ameancow@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

Okay forget rails, we put big fucking monster-truck tires on the trains and just crash through the countryside.

[–] MNByChoice@midwest.social 13 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Let's declare a war on bad infrastructure! We can funnel all "War on Y" money in. America First! Let's reduce unemployment with a huge jobs program. Hire everyone to build tracks, trails, and parks.

Just have the people who maintain the roads in michigan build it! What could go wrong!

This is exactly how you motivate a toddler.

[–] SaharaMaleikuhm@feddit.org 22 points 1 month ago

At least the toddler grows up eventually

On an unrelated note I, another scary leftist, am so triggered every time I see a Tesla. Right wingers switching to EVs really makes me feel like an owned lib.

YES! I TOO MINDLESSLY HATE ELECTRIC CARS!

IF PEOPLE START ALL GOING ELECTRIC I WILL BE SO MAD I WILL RENOUNCE KARL MARX AND START EATING MEAT AND RETURN MY HAIR TO NORMAL COLORING

I SURE HOPE THEY DON'T START BUILDING NUCLEAR PLANTS

Shhhhhh don't call it a high speed rail or they'll never buy it

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 54 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

I am for high speed rail, but I am 150% against the Trump train.

I would prefer my 200mph train to stay on the tracks.

[–] piccolo@sh.itjust.works 12 points 1 month ago

When you arrive at the train station, the trump train pulls in, and its 2 jackasses pulling a train of red wagons built by telsa.
