I don’t see that position as being helpful with the voters or people that drive cars which is basically everybody . Lol
Mitch is full of crap again. Trump unveiled his infrastructure plan in March 2019. The proposals were pretty much the same as the one he submitted in 2018 except the price was $”1/2 a trillion less .
The plan calls for starting the infrastructure with $200 billion which will probably come from deficit spending. Then he wants private investors and corporations to help foot the rest of the bill through bonds and tolls on interstate . There’s more incentive for private industries to help finance it but that’s all I could remember .

So they don't want us to even have our "crumbs".
DJT is paving a new path with "promises kept". He is the only bright spot in the R's in years.

What ever happened with the money for all of those "shovel ready " projects that Obama was talking about.
If they would show us that the money was going into infrastructure I might be more inclined to favor this.

The tax cuts for the common man will expire if Trump doesn't get elected and renew them.

User fees instead of taxation sound reasonable.
User fees for things the citizens require such as roads make me squirm. But I do like the idea of a Paid road that saves time like they have in Atlanta and New Jersey Turnpike, I have traveled that one quite a bit.
Those tolls to cross a bridge like in NYC maybe ok, but they seem to have Highway robbery in their vernacular there.
