Is this a non-stop loop on CNN. MSNBC? The three old-fart networks?

Will the MSM give anywhere near the time they've given over to babbling about the tariffs?



American manufacturers are seeing a surge in demand as President Donald Trump's tariffs force companies to reconsider doing business in China.

Trump's tariffs, including a 145% levy on Chinese goods, are causing American-made products to be more competitive in the market. As a result, many small and medium manufacturers are experiencing a surge in demand and are preparing to ramp up production and hire new workers.

Jergens Inc., a midwestern toolmaker with less than 500 employees, says it's "going like gangbusters" trying to keep up with demand, The Wall Street Journal reported. They are seeing an influx of orders from customers trying to avoid import tariffs, along with steady defense-related demand.

"We are running 24 hours a day, seven days a week" said Jergens president Jack Schron, according to the Journal. "We are swamped."

Grand River Rubber & Plastics, a plastics and rubber manufacturer in Ohio, says customers that once offshored to China are reversing course, the Journal noted. Two buyers who left years ago returned within days of each other and two new oil filter manufacturers have already placed orders. The company's new business could amount to $5 million annually, roughly 10% of Grand River's revenue.

...

SafeSource recently increased the number of production lines from two to eight, each making over 20,000 rubber gloves an hour. As new operations become more efficient, they expect costs to decrease significantly.

“We think we can get extremely close to Asian prices,” said Steve Mott, a partner with the company, as reported by the Journal.

If they can get "extremely close to Asian prices" then why do they need tariffs to drive their business?

What about the stuff we don’t make and the orders that can’t be satisfied? It takes years to build plants. One “feelz gud” article doesn’t change international trade facts.

Do you believe this?

Even as the president insists prices will fall, economists and politicians warn his tariffs could sharply raise costs for American consumers, CNBC reported. However, executives at SafeSource Direct, a Louisiana-based medical products manufacturer, say prices are likely to decline as domestic production ramps up

Why would prices decline?

It doesn't take years to build manufacturing plants. Many buildings are available for manufacturing, and many plants can increase production, by adding new lines or going to 3 shifts.

I don't know maybe not having to ship shit from oversea would reduce costs.
 
It doesn’t happen overnight. How much hurt us MAGA willing to take?

What doesn't happen overnight? expanding manufacturing? No one said it could happen overnight. I simply said it doesn't take years to build a manufacturing plant or expand production. Expanding production or adding a new shift can happen in weeks.

Liberals can F-off with how much "hurt" is MAGA willing to take, you all pushed "hurt" for years to support Ukraine and climate change...
 
As long as the same exact product here is made for 5x the same product overseas I'm on board.

They didn't have any problem with FJBs war on fossil fuels and the attendant inflation and inevitable recession either.
 
Chesp skate corporations defected because they were afraid to pay a high wage to American labor.
