Are these factories going to have suicide nets like the ones in China? Its to prevent overworked workers from jumping off the roof fyi.

And the consumer will pay for that also!

They’ve figured out how to deal with Trump. He’s a terrible businessman. All they have to do is say they are going to invest billions, he regurgitates it to the press hoping for an easy win, then they never follow through. He doesn’t make deals. He says he makes deals. As all con artists do.

Was there much more to that article that didn't appear here ?
That took two minutes seventeen seconds to read.
I had to read everything trump said twice because he makes only trump sense !
The guy is probably the dumbest politician of all time.

To the guy that says $40k phones are ok because people will be paid well
Ok so then people in China are still making the phones for $400 and selling them to Americans for the same $900 they always did and the American consumer will pay the governments $39k tarrif ?
Or are you going to tell people they can't bring in phones ?
Do you imagine there will be much investment in America to innovate ?
The lastest cool feature will only be available on the Chinese phone right?

Somewhere, somehow, shitstain is making a bundle on this personally. He doesn't give a shit's what's made where, he sees an opportunity.

He just sees cameras. He wants to be the center of attention.

Someone link the story with rhe $40000 iPhone cost for building it in the US. Also, the CHIPS act set money for companies to build advanced chips in the US. Biden protected it so trump couldn't destroy it. Trump fired the program directors illegally so nobody can get any of the protected money. Now that he stopped bidens good plan to build chips, trump is mad no one is building chips. And the fucking morons clap for him.

If the USA must depend on slave labor to have cheap goods, then it should not have cheap goods. If a smartphone is $40k when built by people paid properly, then fuck it, only the rich get them then. I don't care about that - pay producers of labor more money.

Do you imagine there will be much investment in America to innovate and improve phones when only one percent of today's sales are made at the same mark up?

They know something's up. Instead of holding out for a regime change in a few years...

It's subsidized under Biden's tech bill. Take the subsidy and make Trump look good, or pay a tariff and publicly fight Trump.

Nobody should apply for these jobs. Not one person. I don't care if it's $200 an hour. Let's show them.

That's a stupid take.

No president should be allowed to strongarm busines. Create laws offer incentives but threats of tarrifs targeted at specific businesses shouldn't be tolerated. The only way for them to see this is on thr bottom line.
