Between this, the tarrifs and the brain drain, why would any manufacturers consider operating in the US anymore?

They'll still want access to Americans coz there are profits to be had, and they can price gouge under a fascist kleptocracy many orders of magnitude harder than elsewhere.

What they don't understand is that the fascist leadership will backstab many/most of them eventually, especially if they possess any moral fiber whatsoever. Luckily for them, capitalism has already purged corporate leadership of morality and ethics.

But if we don't have as much money due to increased prices on life essentials and assistance cuts, how are we supposed to buy all these things? Bad logic on their part, if this is their approach.

There is no bottom. They'll continue crushing the working class all the way to slavery and feudalism.

Stop expecting logic. MAGA and fascism is a severely psychotic mental illness that is empirically a dead end. A death cult.

There's no real push for that to happen. This is about crashing an economy, stealing wealth and creating a a massive almost slave labor class at the bottom.
