Vice President JD Vance is clapping along with the MAGA faithful to President Donald Trump's tariffs this week, but in the past he has repeatedly insisted that U.S. manufacturing jobs were not coming back and dismissed efforts to force them to return with tariffs as a futile exercise by "hyper-protectionists," according to a review of his social media posts and interviews over the past several years by CNN's Andrew Kaczynski and Em Steck.
I don’t know who is going to invest in on-shore manufacturing during a recession. Building materials cost more, tooling will cost more, pay will be higher because of inflation, and customers are tightening their wallets.
AND, Trump is obstructing the few investment incentives that the Biden admin had put in place, because “Biden bad.”
And even if all that lined up perfectly for you, there’s nothing to stop it all from changing tomorrow because reasons.
