The CEO of Goldman Sachs trolled President Trump’s “infrastructure week” in one of his first tweets.
“Just landed from China, trying to catch up…. How did ‘infrastructure week’ go?” Lloyd Blankfein tweeted Friday.

The White House had planned to focus on the administration’s infrastructure initiatives this week, but instead was bogged down by Trump’s tweets and former FBI Director James Comey’s testimony.
Thus, prompting numerous jokes about “infrastructure week.”
Blankfein has been a member of Twitter since 2011. He tweeted for the first time on June 1, condemning Trump’s decision to exit the Paris climate agreement.
Today’s decision is a setback for the environment and for the U.S.’s leadership position in the world. #ParisAgreement

In a tweet earlier this week, he urged the U.S. to invest in infrastructure to “keep up” with China.
Arrived in China, as always impressed by condition of airport, roads, cell service, etc. US needs to invest in infrastructure to keep up!
