Since you argue that more purity in US manufacturing is needed, I see that you agree with Trump in his stance that manufacturing needs to return to the USA.
Not really my point. Just pointing out the mixed message that the MAGA leadership is sending by having patriotic merch made outside of the USA,
The way the video is presented shows that some items such as basic caps and shirts say Made in USA, but other items such as bomber jackets and mugs and golf hats say made in other countries. This is an accurate representation that some manufacturing exists, and represents a work in progress.
Which of those items cannot be currently made in the USA? I could be wrong, but I'm guessing that every single one of those foreign made MAGA items could be made in the USA. So why don't they? Greed, of course. More profit from cheaper foreign goods.
Trump says that there is a lack of manufacturing in the USA, and that this needs to change. I am happy that you looked at this video and agree with him.
As a consumer, I'm not entirely sure that I do agree. Sure, I'd like to buy American whenever possible, but, like so many Americans, I'm also a cheapskate. If American made products can compete on price, then great. If not, then cheaper foreign alternative it is.
