Moved earth and heaven, that which we are, we are;

Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will
To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.

In farm country, a bit of oil sprayed on the gravel road is adequate infrastructure improvement. In suburban white America the roads are just fine. They are only a few decades old.
Trump's constituency doesn't understand their connection to world trade goes right through the cities. Goods from China and elsewhere must be shipped via the crumbling cities. Those tractor parts won't arrive if the ports are dark or burning.
