Descripción de How Trump is manipulating the Amtrak accident

President Donald Trump took to Twitter after the Amtrak derailment. Before he expressed his sympathizes, he used the accident for his own political gain. Here are his tweets:
“The train accident that just occurred in DuPont, WA shows more than ever why our soon to be submitted infrastructure plan must be approved quickly. Seven trillion dollars spent in the Middle East while our roads, bridges, tunnels, railways (and more) crumble! Not for long!”
“My thoughts and prayers are with everyone involved in the train accident in DuPont, Washington. Thank you to all of our wonderful First Responders who are on the scene. We are currently monitoring here at the White House.”
How did we get here?
An Amtrak train fell over an overpass Monday south of Seattle in Dupont, Washington, after it traveled up to 80 mph. It was making its first run along a faster route when it spilled onto a highway below.
Six people are dead and the death toll is expected to rise. 78 passengers and five crew members were on board when the train derailed. “At least 50 people were hospitalized, more than a dozen with critical or serious injuries,” according to the Associated Press.
Several vehicles were struck by the falling train on Interstate 5. Multiple motorists were injured.
