I’m not sure if you are just a liar or simply gullible. Your post is a total lie.

Everyone should know that your posts are propaganda and are borderline traitorous to the Union, the Republic, and the Constitution.

 

The AI answer:

 

No, it is not true that manufacturing jobs created are concentrated in tariff-protected industries.

 

Economic studies and government data show that tariffs often increase production costs for downstream manufacturers, leading to job losses or stagnant employment in protected sectors rather than net job creation.

Protected sector declines: In industries directly targeted by tariffs (such as motor vehicles and parts), employment has actually dropped rather than grown.

for instance, motor vehicle and parts employment fell by 15,000 following steel, aluminum, and auto tariffs.

 

BigBallss edit:Read the above three times out loud,

Downstream costs: Tariffs on raw materials like steel and aluminum raise input costs for American manufacturers who use them, putting domestic producers at a disadvantage and shrinking employment in those downstream businesses. [1, 2]
Broader consensus: Independent analyses from organizations like Econofact indicate that trade wars and tariffs have historically resulted in net job losses economy-wide rather than a boost to manufacturing jobs. Additionally, a consensus of economic discussions on platforms like Redditemphasizes that short-term policies like tariffs are insufficient compared to structural investments. [1, 2]
Where job growth is happening: Recent gains in manufacturing employment are largely driven by a shift toward automation, management, and specialized technical roles rather than direct expansion in heavily tariffed smokestack or raw-material industries. [1, 2]
