In remarks in battleground Georgia, Trump says "we’re going to take other countries’ jobs"
Former President Donald Trump on Tuesday said during a campaign speech in battleground state Georgia that he wanted to “take other countries’ jobs,” and boost manufacturing in the US if reelected.
“With a vision I’m outlining today, not only will we stop our businesses from leaving for foreign lands, but under my leadership, we’re going to take other countries’ jobs. Did you ever hear that expression before? Have you ever heard that we’re going to take other countries jobs? It’s never been stated before. We’re going to take their factories. And we had it really rocking four years ago. We’re going to bring thousands and thousands of businesses and trillions of dollars in wealth, back to the good old USA,” Trump said during a speech in Savannah.
Trump said, “And under the plan, American workers will no longer be worried about losing your jobs to foreign nations. Instead, foreign nations will be worried about losing their jobs to America.”
“And it won’t even be difficult. Your only worry will be deciding which job to take. There will be plenty of them. That will be your biggest problem, ‘Darling, which company should I go with?’ We’re going to bring them back, and we’re going to bring them back at levels not to be believed.”
“I want German car companies to become American car companies. I want them to build their plants here. I want to beat China in electronics production,” Trump said.
Trump said if reelected, he would offer “every major company and manufacturer on Earth. I will give you the lowest taxes, the lowest energy costs, the lowest regulatory burden, and free access to the best and biggest market on the planet but only if you make your product here in America.”
“If you don’t make your product here, then you will have to pay a tariff, a very substantial tariff, when you send your product into the United States,” Trump said.
Trump on Monday threatened 200% tariffs on John Deere if the company follows through on its announced plans to lay off staff in the Midwest and move some production to Mexico during a roundtable with farmers in Pennsylvania.
