Last year, the U.S. selected the republican candidate Donald Trump as the nation’s 45th president. Trump promised to encourage individual and corporate investments by offering bold tax cuts, to rebuild aged and worn-out infrastructures like roads and bridges in another “New Deal”, and also pledged to revive the manufacturing industry and promote protectionism.
I think the 'comma' should be as follows:
Trump promised to encourage individual and corporate investments by offering bold tax cuts, to rebuild aged and worn-out infrastructures like roads and bridges in another “New Deal”,
=> Trump promised to encourage individual and corporate investments by offering bold tax cuts, to rebuild aged and worn-out infrastructures like roads and bridges in another “New Deal,"
Is this correct?
Thanks and best regards,
