Bold to assume he would build something for the benefit of the peasant class. Or create something where he cannot profit from financialy.
Let me guess, this will become a gadgetbahn
One is a passenger train, another is a freight train carrying hazardous materials. The risks are VERY different.
Also, if you’re looking for something to blame for the East Palestine, Ohio, train derailment, look at lax regulations:
Following the derailment, reaction and commentary focused on industry working conditions and safety concerns, including: the lack of modern brake safety regulations,[3] the implementation of precision scheduled railroading (PSR),[4] reduced railway workers per train, and increased train lengths and weight.
I mean, build the infrastructure like every other nation & then you can trust the train.

200mph? Like those french trains in the nineties?
Yeah, even the german ICEs can do that much. US mediocratism as usual.
Fun fact: the train pictured here is a Siemens Velaro. That’s the same family of train as the ICE.
It’s the American Pioneer Edition, the variant for the American market, set to operate Brightline West services, but even that one is based on Velaro Novo, a platform designed 100% in Germany.
Edit: Velaro Novo for comparison:
It can do that much for about 20 minutes before it hits a Stau.
Hey now, we were mediocre before but now have crossed well into toxic inferiority.
ICE making America Great Again!!!"
200mph is pretty good. That’s 320 kph. IIRC, China’s high speed rail has a max speed of 350kph, often cruising at 300kph.
Trump, a very stable genius knows high speed rail is a good idea. I am extremely against high speed rail as an antifa leftist.
Trump could propose universal healthcare & many on the left would suddenly hate the idea of everyone having healthcare.
Bait so low quality even tuna won’t touch it
He did say it, at least once. I know he didn’t mean it, but still.
Not me. I don’t have blind allegiance to any team.
Where are you seeing this? I sort of see the opposite.
For example, Hasan Piker, one of the most popular leftist streamers, has a MAGA hat that he puts on when they do something right.
As always, the party of projection is unable to understand that the rest of us actually aren’t tribalist twits.
No, but most of us would be sceptical of how he’ll implement it, if it ever comes to pass at all… He’s announced a number of things I’ve actually agreed with and I can’t think of a single time he’s not found some way to fuck it up
I have never seen so many downvotes on this platform. Also why do you write such nonsense, do you truly believe that or are you simply trolling ?
Also, you are a big silly.
Its called projection. They automatically hate anything the other side does because they have no actual principles, so they assume the otherside would act the same.
you’re getting loads of downvotes, but I honestly think it’s mostly from people who feel called-out on some level that we all, as a society, have long abandoned wanting better outcomes and just want emotional validation.
This is the trick that Russia and other entities amplified in our social media spaces and forums, the raw emotions and anger that leaves people making choices based on feelings rather than solid understanding of politics.
I mean, it’s too late now, it all worked and got people so distracted that we let the coyote in to guard the henhouse. But I mean, ideally yah we would need to put some better effort into separating how we feel from what we really want. That ship has sailed a long time ago, leftists are as delusional as the right now, but in a different direction. RIP democracy.
I half remember something like that happening in Brazil. The right proposes something the left approves, there’s no fight, they realize their mistake and start opposing their own idea.
I’m reminded of the time Mitch McConnell filibustered his own bill because too many Democrats supported it.
i agree twitter user @ FrottingIDK
Don’t worry it will be bankrupt in no time like all the other Trump stuff including Casinos.
It’s high speed rail. I’m guessing the general attitude in here is that we don’t want this to fail.
How can you bankrupt a casino? How do you find against math itself and win?
Two casinos.
And the answer to your question is money laundering.
If money laundering bankrupted casinos, then Las Vegas would be just another ghost town in the desert. It takes a special level of stupid to bankrupt a casino. Especially if you are using it to launder money.
It was actually 4 casinos.
https://news.temple.edu/news/2016-10-25/bankruptcy-expert-studies-trump-casinos
Those Las Vegas casinos you are referring to are in compliance with money laundering laws. Trump’s were not.
If you’re not taking in enough to cover the amount of money laundering you’re doing, you’ll end up with a loss on the books.
Ummm, the casinos in Vegas were very much not in compliance with much of anything for decades…https://themobmuseum.org/exhibits/open-city/#%3A~%3Atext=In+the+1940s+and+'50s%2CMob+syndicate+could+invest+here.
I’m sorry, I thought it was pretty obvious that I was making a comparison that was contemporary with FinCens actions against the Trump crime syndicate. Not 70+ years ago.
He is fighting against math right now. Maybe the real game with the tariffs is market manipulation.
How can you bankrupt a casino?
All of Atlantic City basically collapsed on itself as Vegas siphoned away the high rollers.
Trump thought he could buy into an old casino and revitalize it. But he’s Trump, so he did it all wrong and just got to ride the crash all the way into the dirt.
Trump knew he wasn’t going to revitalize anything. The whole thing was a money laundering scam for him.
Well, he thought running a casino was an easy way to print money. He threw a ton of investment at pastiche, bilked his builders, shortchanged his staff, and created a very glitzy slum.
The Adelsons and the Wynns have been laundering money in the same way, but none of their casinos go belly up. They’re just as evil but far more competent.
Oh, great, more phallic shapes to slap the Trump label on.
Musk sabotaging this “centuries old technology” based project in 3…
What if we made the Trump train… But instead of a train it was a car and instead of a railroad it’s a street.
Actually, Musk would embrace it and claim to invent the whole concept, say that no one has ever done it before, even while just rebranding a Siemens Mireo: https://tech.yahoo.com/transportation/articles/tesla-launches-worlds-first-electric-111535136.html
The only reason Trump wants to do this, is because Elon would get the contract. Just another way to funnel taxpayer money into the hands of the PayPal Mafia.
Art of the deal.
Act of the deal.
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.
Canadian here. No we fucking won’t.
It would make getting to DC for protests a whole lot easier.
It’d be Trumps “Hitler build the Autobahn”.
And there is no forgiveness either.
I wouldn’t trust it for a second. They’d use it to move minorities into camps more efficiently
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.)
Or just a quick stop in the valley between Dry Mountain and Saline Peak near Death Valley to “drop off some passengers”.
Arbeit Macht Frei, baby.
That’s German for “All aboard the Trump Train!”
Only Arbeit is capitalized and its the only noun.
In german the capitalisation of words sometimes changes the meaning of the:
macht (from the verb machen, to do/make) Macht (as a verb means force/power/might)
I saw this double meaning several times, like the title of an art exibition: Geld Macht Kunst ( money, power, art or money makes art)
OK but you missed a golden opportunity to use the word Fahrt.
