"monumental debacle" in waiting

Purple Line delays push opening date back a year - WTOP

$50 million burning a hole in a politician's pocket is a dangerous thing. Perhaps he should wait to see how much money that MoCo recovers from its private partners in its current public-private partnership "monumental debacle", the Silver Spring Transit Center (which has cost taxpayers close to or more than an additional $50 million), before he spends another $50 million on MoCo's next public-private partnership "monumental debacle in waiting" (Purple Line).

Some politicians, e.g. Montgomery County MD, think that $ grows on trees.
