these guys are such idiots lol

who the hell gives a fukk about manufacturing jobs?!?!

unemployment in the US is near historical lows and with inflation under control + rates potentially coming down it wasnt an issue for the forseeable future

not to mention those are the same unskilled jobs that nobody really wants to do and robotics and AI will likely cut loose in the long run anyway. i cant believe America really elected this idiot a second time

I think the idea Trump has in his mind is to bring back high paying manufacturing jobs like they had in the past in the midwest but I don't think it will happen like that in modern times.

If the idea is anything like this ass clown described, its gonna be construction jobs for a limited time (job's done when the building's done) and changing the wheels on a robot, etc

It isn’t going to happen. Those blue collar manufacturing jobs not coming back here in mass.

Those rednecks are going to have to go learn a trade or something.

Meanwhile, the Trump administration is not going to do shyt but run up the price on imports at the docks which retailers will in turn pass off that cost to their consumers.

In a couple years when we are likely in a recession conservatives will be saying but Biden….
