The majority of Oahu residents don't want to pay any more for rail, and McDermott wants to force us to do so.  Let HART build what it can with the money that it has.  Let's see what that is before committing any more money for rail.  McDermott is one of the leaders of the Hawaii Republican Party, which has taken positions on issues contrary to what the majority of Oahu residents.  For example, the large majority favors gay marriage and the right of women to control their own bodies, but the Hawaii Republican Party is on the other side of the fence.  No wonder Republicans are becoming extinct.
