Companies aren't going to suddenly decide to spend a load of money to move production to the US without some certainty that the tariffs are going to last long enough for it to make financial sense.
There's a very good chance that Trump will cancel most tariffs this year and then declare that he's won somehow.
Even if Trump doesn't, he could die at any moment and Vance removes them.
Or the next administration removes them.
Yeah, They're not going to suddenly start spending. But they're going to plan a way to move offshores.
How do you think America lost manufacturing jobs in the first place?
Doesn't matter if it gets rolled back or not. We've seen this over and over again and the tariffs just make it even more attractive to move ship.
