Ok so he’s threatening people who have the advantage with…something? I mean they could just as easily go “no, we’re good” and then the US would have neither chips nor factories.

If he’s hoping to have that technology here so the US can steal it, well obviously that’s crazy and these companies have already considered that.

And even if he was going to be nice to them that’s kinda wild that Mr. Super-racist would be so ok with using American labour to enrich foreign executives.

Is “the Art of the Deal” about how you can put yourself in absolutely awful bargaining positions while begging for others to do your job for you? ‘Cause he’s excellent at that.
