So like a case of herpes, the Trump Budget looks like the gift that’s gonna keep on giving. Now I’m reading that the budget only includes $200B for infrastructure, and instead of making that a big pot of money that will cut into checks, the administration wants to create an “investment fund” that supposedly will promote private investment in infrastructure. The earliest that the White House expects that money to start flowing out? Late next year.

So if you like in Bumfuck, Iowa and you voted for Trump on the promise that that big infrastructure project near you would get finished, then I’ve got some bad news.
