Trump on ‘Made in America’: ‘We Were Moving Big on Bringing All That Back,’ But Biden Screwed It Up

Breitbart News Header

PALM BEACH, Florida — Former President Donald Trump excoriated Democrat President Joe Biden for screwing up efforts his administration began to make important stuff in America again during an exclusive interview with Breitbart News.

Trump, who sat with Breitbart News for more than two hours at his Mar-a-Lago resort in late December, said that when he was president “it was happening” that major critical industries were moving back to the United States from overseas. But, now that Biden is president, Trump argued that is no longer happening despite all the bluster from Biden’s White House claiming that he is interested in making things in America again.

“Even the CHIPS Act, money goes to foreign countries,” Trump said, bashing one of Biden’s signature legislative achievements that authorized billions of dollars supposedly to make semiconductor chips in America again. “How about that?”

“We were moving big on bringing all of that back,” Trump continued. “I did that through a system of tariffs and other things and frankly we’re not going to protect you if you take our businesses. We don’t want you taking our businesses.”

The Trump administration saw for the first time in decades an influx back into the country of major critical industries—and a slowdown in the drain out of the country of other critical industries. Trump’s tariffs on steel and aluminum imports essentially saved those industries. Now, under Biden, U.S. Steel—once a “powerhouse” company representing American strength—is reportedly possibly about to be sold to a Japanese competitor. With Biden in the White House, this is a commonality across many industries, from the semiconductor industry after the CHIPS Act failures to the metals industries to even the production of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic. In fact, some reports published late last year show that Biden as president has let proposed medical glove manufacturing facilities wither on the vine after Trump tried to jumpstart them at the end of his administration. That’s not to mention what has happened to the auto industry under Biden, which has been so bad that the biggest autoworkers strike in years paralyzed the industry last autumn.
