Factories are not coming back to the USA in large number, for a lot of reasons, at least not until full automation + tariffs makes them economical. But the biggest reason is that what's going to happen is that the average joe is going to suffer a bit, then will vote against these policies in the next election, and that's only 3.5 years away. If it takes a year to build a factory -- and frankly these tariffs could be adjusted again or removed in a few months -- and then they're likely to be fully removed in 3.5 years, I'm just not sure it makes sense to invest in a factory.
My suspicion is that Trump will declare a national emergency and suspend elections at the mid-term if it looks like the Republicans will lose seats in the House.
They’re the most likely to go along. The whole point of the army is following orders. Congress doesn’t have the threat of jail for not listening to Trump.
Want to bet that Trump's argument for a third term hinges on the US being in a recession/depression and needing him to see the economy through the struggles?
