I read in the WashingtonPost that Sean Duffy is Trump’s pick. A former reality television star (The Real World on mtv) and former congressman in Wisconsin.

Everyone likes reading between the lines and coming up with their own theories, especially where Amtrak is involved.  And since DOT Secretary is a yawn cabinet post and gets very little media covereage outside places like TO,  here's President Elect Trump's statement on his nominee in case you haven't seen it elesewhere.  “He will prioritize Excellence, Competence, Competitiveness and Beauty when rebuilding America’s highways, tunnels, bridges and airports. He will ensure our ports and dams serve our Economy without compromising our National Security, and he will make our skies safe again by eliminating DEI for pilots and air traffic controllers.”

DEI isn't the problem for air traffic control positions.

They can't get enough people to apply, and the ancient technology, over work, fatigue and stress wash out many good employees. Forcing the survivors into more stress, fatigue, etc
