Trump’s program is likely to be Constitutionally sound, along the lines of building and maintaining roads, as opposed to Obama who handed out money for everything but building roads.

"along the lines of building and maintaining roads"

I think I could argue against the bill on constitutional grounds, but in this case, I argue against the Keynesian fallacy that such spending is a stimulus to the economy. Since the money being spent must also be confiscated from the same economy being "stimulated", the net result is, at best, a wash.
