President Donald Trump pitched his infrastructure plan on Thursday in Ohio. In a campaign-style speech, he talked about a variety of topics including deregulation, tax cuts, and a recent trade deal with South Korea. He also bashed Hillary Clinton for making a bad trade agreement with Koreans, calling it a “horror show.”

Trump said there was no better place to begin the campaign on infrastructure than “the state-of-the-art training site,” where he gave his speech in Richfield, Ohio.
