Washington – President Donald Trump is promising to work with Democrats next year, starting with shoring up the nation’s crumbling roads and bridges.

He tweeted Friday, “I predict we will start working with the Democrats in a Bipartisan fashion. Infrastructure would be a perfect place to start.”
The president added, “It is time to start rebuilding our country!”
The statement of priorities came as Trump was preparing to leave for Mar-a-Lago, his resort in Florida. He is expected to release a framework for increased infrastructure spending in January, relying on a mix of federal, local and private spending. Trump has used the deadly train derailment in Seattle to call for more infrastructure spending. The accident happened on a newly completed bypass.
It is December. He has been President for a year. About time he had a plan for something or the other.
Our bridges and subways are falling apart!
He gave away all the money in tax relief?? to the billionaire
Wjhat level of gullibility does it take for someone to write this poorly reported drivel? Trump doesn’t have a plan for infrastructure and never will unless he can get a piece of the action. And he didn’t promise to work with Democrats, he “predicts” he will.
Infrastructure would have been the easiest thing to do from day 1 of his administration, but he hasn’t even taken the first step, and by signing the tax cut for the 1%, he’s now broken every single one of his promises to the middle class.
