    1)move stuff faster 2)deregulate bridges 3)have less traffic

    Only one of these things is a policy, a terrifying and bad one, but it is a thing the government can do. The other two items are just listing things that would be nice! Move stuff faster? Wow, what a bold a visionary strategy to address supply shortages, we should get supplies faster, thanks boss, I knew you could do it. Oh, you have another idea? HAVE LESS TRAFFIC?! My man, unless your unveiling a trillion dollar new public transit system, I don't even know what you're talking about. People are using the only transportation available to them. Everyone hates traffic, but everyone is traffic, WHAT'RE WE S'POSED TO DO JOE...SELL IT TO AQUAMAN...oh sorry, wrong bit

      Sounds like you're really going to love the admin's new "Just Cut It Out" mental health services funding bill!

    i think he is referring to "structurally deficient" bridges that predate modern standards and/or bridges that have had their capacity reduced to deferred maintenance, but yeah somebody gets paid to write better than that

      Yeah...maybe they meant something like "when bridges aren't so structurally deficient they need a lower weight limit imposed"

      Come on, you have a comms person to do this, surely they can do better than that

        I think his comms person would probably have somehow figured out a way to call poor people animals, based on the last few weeks.

    Causing our unmaintained bridges to collapse will surely help to mitigate supply chain issues instead of causing more of them

        They better riff on this in the next Goddamn News, such a great quote.

    He’s right. You can’t Build Back Better without collapsing every bridge in the US first.

    When I vacuum my carpet, when I light my kitchen on fire, when I take out the trash- that's how I clean my house and make sure it's sanitary.

    The Bipartisan Housekeeping Law is helping to make it happen.
