or the price of oil to start to crater. I know he's shocked--HOCKED--that he got played by {utin.

I really think he expected foreign manufacturers to kiss his ass and plan to build factories in the US overnight.

Manufacturing might eventually return to the US as AI aided advances in robotocs make our plants more competitive than the roomfuls of underpaid third world workers on assembly lines. That's just a guess and hinges on our not blowing ourselves up over the next 40 yars or so.

It''s just not going to hap[en quickly, no matter how many stupid ideas come out of this gang of ideologues and other idiots.
