Only 50 years behind schedule. ๐Ÿ‘

This won't happen under the Trump administration.

He wants his name on it, so he actually apparently really pushed Isaacman to make it happen before he's out of office. Of course, that's not possible, so who knows how much he cares anymore.

He definitely intends to still be in office whenever it finally happens.

I wonder what the bookies would give you on that bet because there's a very good chance he'll be dead before the end of his presidency.

Him, or one of his kids, will be in office if this ever gets finished. The Trump family isn't going anywhere in 2028.

Stop with the doomerism, it's not helping anyone. Yes, he probably intends that. But assuming he's already won makes it easier for him to actually win.

Obligatory reminder that he's not even eligible to run!

Better late than never I guess?
