President Trump calls for manufacturing to return to the United States

In a town hall meeting aired on Fox News yesterday, President Trump took questions from the public on the topic of ‘America Together Returning to Work’. The President emphasized that the Wuhan virus (COVID-19) pandemic has made the vital importance of ending globalization and returning production to America clear.

One questioner asked President Trump what advice he would give future presidents to prevent a similar crisis from occurring in the future. The President was unequivocal, as recorded in the transcript: “We have to bring our product back home, we have to make our product in this country. We can’t be hostage, because that’s what we are. We can’t be hostage to other countries, China in particular, but also to other countries. We can’t ever let that happen again.”

Another caller asked the President about why the antibiotics America needs are manufactured in other countries such as China instead of at home, and when America would be self-sufficient with antibiotics. “The reason . . . is because other people that sat in this chair . . . they were foolish,” Trump said. “You could even say because they were stupid. Because they allowed this to happen. And it’s not only China . . . But we’re bringing that whole supply chain back. Nobody has to tell me to do it. I’ve been talking about that for years.”
