After Tuesday’s train derailment near Philadelphia, conservative real estate mogul Donald Trump proclaimed he’s “the only one” who can fix the country’s infrastructure.
Trump took to Twitter to post his self-promotional message and criticize politicians who couldn’t fix the problem or “build.” The Amtrak derailment, the cause of which is still being investigated, occurred when the train was on its way from Washington, D.C. to New York City. As CNN reported, six passengers died and 150 were injured.

Well he was correct in saying, “Our country has horrible infrastructure problems.” The rest of it, not so much.
Not so modest, you are very good at talking, too…
‘Fix’ infrastructure?
If you fix your hair first, then we’ll take you seriously. Maybe.
Then shut the fuck up and do something about it. Since you haven’t to this point, you are just as complicit as you’re saying these “politicians” are.
Trump will make the trains run on time! Very comforting.
