problems, i believe, with jim in san francisco. sitting next to me and watching all of this unroll is mark lotter, the former assistant and spokesperson for mike pence at the white house. so the positive side of this is that the president's finally unrolling the infrastructure plan. the negative side is, mark, to be perfectly blunt, this comes after days of controversy over rob porter, over a second, quote, resignation or firing from the white house, controversies over the lack of security clearances for rob porter, and the president fueling this issue by tweeting and commenting his support for the men rather than the women who claim that they were victims. >> i know this is something on the infrastructure side that the president's been talking about for a very long time. he's a builder by nature, so i know he's excited to get this project launched. prior to coming to washington, d.c., i spent a lot, most of my career, working for governors and mayors back in indiana.
