Link lists products to be featured:

Trump is not responsible for any of these products being made in the US. Vermont did not suddenly decide to produce maple syrup when Trump was elected. Indiana did not suddenly start making brooms. Alaska did not begin to make bowls in 2017.

Contrary to the perceptions of some folk, the US is the second largest manufacturer in the world and according to global manufacturing CEOs, is positioned to reclaim first place by 2020. This forecast was made in late 2015.

The basis for this projection was the unprecedented pipeline of back orders for custom industrial robotics being designed to compete with the world’s cheapest sources of labor.

If realized, whomerever was elected in 2016 would take credit for it and ignore the pipeline of back orders predates their time in office.

Incorrect. Trump supporters are. Whenever we legitimately criticize Trump, you fall back on the old, But Hillary, but Obama, and but Democrats excuse. And none of them are excuses, because none of them are in power.

Wasn't one of the rallying cries of the 2016 campaign season the "fact" that Obama had killed ALL manufacturing in the U.S.?

How did all of these companies ramp up so quickly?

Just posted link to the products in post #53.

All of these products ( some outright curious) substantially predate Trump.

Rarely does a day go bye on this forum that a poster does not claim the US no longer manufactures anything. And they seem to believe it.

The amount of misinformation out there is stunning.

Isn't it.

I'm constantly amazed by posts that are total BS.

Information that is so easy to look up it only takes seconds.

There seem to be “ official” MAGNA hats made in the US and knock- offs made in China.

Trump milked the “ We don’t make/ manufacture anything, anymore” at rallies. Repeat anything often enough , more people believe it.

People believe anything when it seems to validate their perceptions. And they repeat it.

No doubt there are some who will see Caterpiller featured at the Made in America PR event and believe Trump made them the largest manufacturer in the world of construction equipment and ignore they have been top dog for 100 years.
