Trump "Our tariffs make it so that companies can open their factories here in the US to suit our needs."

Factory won't be open until 2030 due to massive permits & other legal struggles

The kikesucker is deregulating everything. Talking about killing OSHA. If that happens factories will open overnight.

OSHA can go fuck itself, for the most part. Industry safey was never about safety; it's about corporations paying expensive lip service so they can receive cheaper insurance premiums. OSHA just holds the gun to their heads to make sure they do.

The idea is to make it more lucrative to build those factories here instead of over seas. It did indeed do this, but prices were fucked up for a long time & still kind-of are. I wonder what this round will bring.

Oh yeah, someone's totally going to build a factory here now and they'll finish it right when Trump leaves office and that tariff immediately comes off. This just fucks us over again.

A lot of the infrastructure already exists.

He wants to kill OSHA, which would indeed make corporations jump at the opportunity.
