Since some people seem confused about this, we could have had a major infrastructure bill, with overwhelming Democratic support, at any point in the past 3 years; Trump and his party were the obstacle https://t.co/alnlqhyMBf— Paul Krugman (@paulkrugman) February 6, 2020

The punchline is that, as you can see from this story in Brooks’s own newspaper, House Dems introduced a major infrastructure plan last week. But I suppose it’s unrealistic to expect someone who gets paid a six figure salary plus God knows how much in speaking fees to write about politics to actually look stuff like this up.
