It’s pretty good timing. After all, Trump’s been touting his new infrastructure plan like crazy lately.

If you recall, President Trump donated his first-quarter salary to the National Park Service, his second-quarter to the Department of Education and his third-quarter to HHS to fight the opioid crisis.
You KNOW if Obama did this, MSM would be slobbering. They’d be all, “Wow. What a GUY! He really cares! He’s putting money where his mouth is!”
But since Trump’s doing it, they’re going to do their best to pretend this never happened. So predictable.
