Trump is bad. I agree... but why is the left suddenly all sympathetic towards rich people & CEOs like this, who exploit cheap labor.

If trump keeps to these tarrifs and importing silicone becomes too expensive then someone will open a factory to produce it here.

You're talking about a 6-10 year project before it produces anything; but we can't get the Commander in Cheese to stick to his word for 6 days.

6 years is way more than 6 days. It's longer than his presidency should be, but we're not even sure of that.
