I don’t think it’s useful to split hairs about how much real infrastructure different fascists built.

Consider: Mussolini did •not• in fact make the trains run on time. (There’s research on this: his train system ran very poorly!) But he •talked• all the time about how he’d made the trains run on time, and that lie still lives on as a well-known phrase today.

That’s completely in line with modern Trumpian fascism.
