Some of yall needs nets on the ledge like the Chinese iPhone manufacturing plants. 

Weren't they all moving to Canada? 

Isn't Canada doing awesome now that they are importing tons of people from the 3rd world?

Trump reminds me of an amatuer bad painter who, when making an error, trying to fix it actually makes it worse and so he has completely lost the painting and it's ruined but he needs to fix it and with every brushstroke it gets worse and he just won't put the brush down because of ego and fear and chaos.

Fuck me.  Gatorbet beat me to it.

I mean....read this idiocy: https://www.yahoo.com/news/dont-panic-over-stock-market-080358444.html

TLDR version: Trump is making us great, because tariffs mean that we'll just start manufacturing everything over here, bringing back all them manufacturing jobs.  And gosh, didn't you forget Biden, whose polices caused all that inflation (note that they never tell you what policies, exactly, those were.  Nor do they observe the glaring facts that 1) inflation was GLOBAL (meaning....not just here in the US), and 2) the US had a LOWER inflation rate than most every other western economy.  That is, when graded on the curve, the US performed WELL on inflation).

That's it, folks.  We're going to bring back all kinds of manufacturing jobs.  They'll be here in a coupla months!  How?  Well....we're going to magically build thousands of giant factories, requiring trillions of dollars in investment betting on it always being the best, most cost-effective way to do things!  Yep, investors will be lining up to put their dollars into a new plastic injection molding plant to make all those toy soldiers the Chinese done stole from us, etc. etc. etc.  And they'll do so posthaste -- those factories will be up and running before the year is out!

Dumbest.  Fucking.  Timeline.

Hey Boomer, the factories are already being built.

Think about the long game for a second. TSMC makes 60% of the chips for the world.

When China overtly moves on Taiwan they go scorched Earth and there's no more chips for anybody.

No more phones, no more computers, no more cars, no more medical equipment, no more power grid equipment, no more autonomous farm equipment, no more home appliances...

Unless the DoD... oops I mean Samsung, is building a place to make chips into the future in Taylor, TX....

None of the remaining fabs will be finished not after the CHIPS act was killed. They will say all the nice things, give Trump all the photops he wants  but the bleeding edge node fabs will never open

Those fabs are gonna lose a ton of the reasons that brought them to America if/when the CHIPS act is killed by Herr Trump

lol

The one in Taylor is finishing up and there's 10 more years already scheduled to be built there.

Keep being a defeatist boomer.

It's actually not a Trump or Biden thing, although the midwits will want to praise and blame one side or the other. It's a military funded installation that took years of planning and building and will keep going on for years and years.

They will never be built just like Trump's foxcon monitor plant is just an empty building

Trump's Foxconn factory... Look at this "10 billion dollar investment"... all they did was give Trump what he wanted a photo op in a ground breaking ceremony. Once that was over with and billions in tax money was spent.

This is the site now

Biden's CHIPS act actually created real bleeding edge factories, Trump in a fit of petty jealousy ended the program and whatever he is promising today will look like the empty buildings above, of course the sheep will be placated and excited about these promised factories and ground breaking photo ops, but I will be correct.

You are grossly mistaken.  In Samsung's own words.  https://semiconductor.samsung.com/us/sas/company/taylor/

Pffft. That’s just what THEY want you to think. 

Well I am pretty sure it is in the rosiest terms possible.  But very clearly attributable to CHIPs Act and it's still going to take eight years to complete

Samsung's fab is not going to finish, with the CHIPS act enforcement dismantled they have all the incentive in the world to just pocket the money and not build a thing.

Potemkin villages

It is a tale as old as time, when you have a banana dictatorship that only cares about optics and never about results there is no shortage of international companies willing to whore out for a photoop groundbreaking ceremony.
