    The army of millions and millions of people screwing in little, little screws to make iPhones, that kind of thing is going to come to America, it’s going to be automated

    What does he mean? Are people screwing in the screws? Or is it automated?

    As a patriotic American, I will no doubt buy a $34,000 USD half-ass built Chevy iPhone from Miss A. Sippy. /s Comes with Meim Kumpf and X (formerly known as something useful) pre-installed.

    It was probably never his goal, he just want companies to move outside China in order to hurt it, even if they’re still outside the u.s.
    They don’t care about being united in diversity, so if we(sterners) “lose”, i hope that we’ll be treated as awfully as we are/‘have been’ treating others, not that any other country diverse&powerful enough(, able to threaten the u.s.,) will be authorized to emerge again.
    When they destroyed the u.s.s.r. they made sure to destroy Yugoslavia, encourage separatism inside the Russian Federation, and support anti-russian forces in ex-USSR countries, after giving “friendly” advices that had the worst economic consequences.
    And we(sterners) don’t even have a good reason for ruling supreme, there’s nothing to compare since we have no public plan for the future, no assumed alternative to offer except an ahistorical&amoral modernity promoting selfishness and a capitalist-owned representative democracy with a varying attachment to freedom(, less concerned about comparing it with Freedom than the alleged situation in “regimes”), to the point that we’re even hiding these reasons for desiring hegemony at the expense of a peaceful diversity, and lying about other countries.
    The alternative to our attacks would obviously be to work together, but some diversities/differences aren’t tolerated and a war for hegemony is the only plan/future for these mindless brutes, i can only pray that the just/virtuous/good side will win. I don’t know if they will but they deserve a better world.
