| Aug 29 at 4:22 | comment | added | Luke L | @MickeyQ I'm not definitely sure, but I don't think the sentence meant that. I think the sentence means "There's no other president who knows more about infrastructure than Trump." Maybe. But I'm not super sure, so it's open for discussion. Any other things that I can improve on my answer? | |

| Aug 29 at 4:04 | comment | added | MickeyQ | Thank you! "And if there has ever been anyone who has been president in the history of this nation who knew more about infrastructure than Trump... Eisenhower, maybe?" I thought this sentence meant if there has ever been anyeone except Trump who has been president and has known/knew more... That's why I included it as an example. | |
