One member of the GQP has already done that at the 2020 GQP Trump Coronation https://19thnews.org/2020/08/on-eve-of-suffrage-centennial-milestone-rnc-to-feature-speaker-supporting-policies-barring-women-from-voting/

I'm not sure the Trump stole my soul is a winnable defense for Rudy....

They are also some of the biggest A-H drivers in the state.

Mitch throwing a bit of shade on the GQP? edit, I guess they just dropped a ton of money on the Ohio race.

I guess there are portions of track capable of 110 MPH speeds. This MLive story from about a year ago says track improvements have been made between Porter, IN and Albion, MI. There is funding available for improvements into Dearborn. https://www.mlive.com/public-interest/2021/05/amtrak-will-speed-up-trains-on-trips-between-detroit-chicago.html I think I also remember discussions about a station near Romulus, probably Wayne or wherever those tracks are south of Michigan Ave. There is a Smart Bus terminal near Middlebelt and Google Maps shows vacant land. The thinking at the time was to run a shuttle bus between DTW and the terminal for passengers heading to Ann Arbor and points west. There is already a bus running from DTW to Ann Arbor on a regular basis.

That almost looks like Lower Wacker Dr in Chicago. I used to park may car there early mornings.

Back when GPS and things like Mapquest was in their infancy I was working as a CSR for a company that did "trip routing" for several motor clubs. We had one woman who gave us hell for routing her around Kansas City on the interstate. It took her through what she termed "rough neighborhoods". The guy who took the call handled it the best he could. I wanted to ask her, "Do you really expect them to build highways thru rich white neighborhoods?"

I'll never be around to see it but I'd love something like what they have from London to Paris...best train ride I ever had.

We did a few days in DC recently. I absolutely hate driving I95 from about Fredericksburg north. A couple of side trips made it a bit more enjoyable. Lunch at the winery in Barbourdville, a quick stop at the battlefield in Manassas (basically had a private tour since it was late afternoon). Parking and downtown traffic was not much fun. Coming home we opted for 301 thru Tappahannock. Makes me glad I live on the outskirts of civilization here. Told the wife next time we park in Richmond and take the train.

The rail service from Dearborn to Chicago is supposed to be about 5 hours, it seems longer. I remember hearing about buying right of ways to prevent freight train delays. that was about 6 or 7 years ago and I don't think much has changed. You do save on parking if you're staying downtown, but taxi fares and metro fares, combined with possible rental car fares seem to make it inconvenient sometimes. About 25 years ago my son and I took Amtrak from Chicago to Clifton Forge, Va. There was no service into Roanoke, a town that once the lifeline of Norfolk and Western. It was hell. About 14 hours on the train, not to mention the hour drive family had to make to pick us up and drop us off.

As we have learned from Virginia someone who pretends to disavow Trump still becomes as bad as Trump once he takes office

RonJon as said some very stupid things lately. Par for the GQP

Yep...no retreads

Maybe if they hadn't deep sixth the previous administration's game plan

Common sense died a long time ago. It's been replaced by self entitledment.

Only the best and the brightest...

Oz probably thinks Rolling Rock is still a local brand

I blame Oprah, for both Oz and Dr Phil.

Let me get this straight. Biden is in cahoots with farmers, truck drivers and food manufacturers as well as grocery stores, who only see a small profit in vegetables. If Oz was a true Pennsylvanian, he'd grow his own stuff instead of galavanting across the countryside.
