The sad thing is, if Trump does all this and wrecks the economy in a short amount of time, him and his enablers in Congress will blame Biden and the American people will believe it because they've already proven to be stupid.

Republicans have fooled Americans into thinking the manufacturing jobs from the 70s and 80s coming back. When in reality, these low education workers need to invest in different skillsets. They don't want to head the reality it's why they're still upset about the coal mine industry

I would actually wager both parties have lied about this issue.

Globalization is undefeated. The United States is a land of services and for factory jobs, automation takes care of a lot of jobs as well.


Old article but same thing applies.

Trump's victory was enabled by technology — everything from his use of social media to Clinton's email scandals to Russian hacking. But advancements in technology and how they reshape our economy may also keep him from delivering on some of the major promises that made him so popular during the campaign season.

The truth is that, over recent decades, the rich have been getting richer. Power has shifted to Wall Street and business. Globalization has caused the loss of millions of jobs in the United States. Some white Americans have also been terrified at the changing complexion — and values — of the country. Trump very smartly played to these fears and promised his supporters what he knew they wanted: greater economic opportunity by bringing back jobs shipped overseas.

But those jobs, many in the manufacturing sector, are increasingly done by technology. Machines are learning to do the jobs of manufacturing workers; artificial intelligence-based tools are mastering the jobs of call-center and knowledge workers; and cars are beginning to drive themselves.

Over the next decade, technology will decimate more jobs in many professions, inequality will increase and more people will be disadvantaged.

Some robots already cost less to operate than the salaries of the humans they replace, and they are getting cheaper and better. Boston Consulting Group predicts that, by 2025, the operating cost of a robot that does welding will be less than $2 per hour, for example.

That's more affordable than the $25 per hour that a human welder earns today in the U.S., and even cheaper than the pay of skilled workers in the lowest-income countries.

Trump may be able to keep immigrants out, but how will he stop the advance of robots?

This was during the first presidency.

This is the hurt that Elon is talking about. They are about to break America and turn us into the Hunger Games.

Not just Hunger Games. Mix that with The Purge, Idiocracy, and Mad Max, and you see the powder keg that will rip this country apart.

He won the popular vote. He's popular. He's only hated by liberals but nobody cares about them.

He'll be able to blame Biden for the first year. If it drags on, Independents will eventually shift the blame to him. I expect Republicans to ride or die with him no matter what.

Yeah, if people haven’t blamed him and Republicans for the last 8 years, they’re not about to start blaming them. Republicans always show up to vote, no matter how dumb the policies are.

Not saying it's not possible but it takes a huge amount of cognitive dissonance to blame Biden for prices during the presidency of another when Biden didn't even have these prices. This is when the news needs to be responsible and blame the tariffs for this. Will they, probably not.
