“One of the things I want to investigate rapidly – because I’ve never seen anything to this extent – the train that’s being built between Los Angeles and San Francisco, is the worst managed project I think I’ve ever seen. And I’ve seen some of the worst. We’re gonna start a big investigation on that because it’s– I’ve never seen anything like it. 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, today in the Oval Office.
Trump wants to halt the high-speed rail project that would cut travel time between SF and LA from 9 hours to under 3 hours.
