The Commerce secretary was on CNBC yesterday am talking about how the tariffs will bring back manufacturing jobs to US. Then a few seconds later was talking about having Apple (and other companies) make their products in the US using robotics. So very few actual American humans getting jobs.

There are also categories of things that can't be produced in the US. Coffee, avocados, diamonds etc. I haven't heard Krasnov explain how they are going to move the diamond mines from Lesotho back to the USA. :)
