When President Trump was in office, he moved heaven and earth to bring jobs back to the country. Even during the pandemic, he kept to his “America First” agenda. He started initiatives that brought critical manufacturing to America.
That included investments to ensure U.S. companies were making personal protective equipment, like gloves. Trump ensured that we were not dependent on foreign supplies, especially during the crisis of 2020.
But very quickly, the Biden administration fumbled the ball. Mismanagement and poor planning have shut down entire operations that were supposed to provide Americans with jobs and quality, life-saving products. Now, Trump is planning to expose Biden’s major failure to the entire country, in epic fashion.
From Breitbart:
Former President Donald Trump… is considering taking up an offer for a tour from the CEO of a Virginia factory that is not producing anything right now because Democrat President Joe Biden’s administration screwed up Trump’s “Made in America” initiatives…Because of Biden administration screwups — in large part because of the Biden team’s moving of funding efforts from the Pentagon to the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), as detailed by a letter sent by Sen. J.D. Vance (R-OH) to HHS Secretary Xavier Becerra — Blue Star and other facilities like it are not making anything despite the hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars spent to get them up.
Donald Trump is considering visiting Blue Star’s abandoned factory in Virginia. When he was in office, Trump secured funding to get companies like Blue Star to make nitrile gloves and other PPE domestically.
These gloves are used by doctors, police, EMTs, and even restaurants. Billions are used every year. Most of them are made overseas, forcing the U.S. to be dependent on other countries. Trump initiated a plan to ensure that federal funds be used to get American companies to make these products.
But Biden failed to follow through. One of the Biden administration’s mistakes was to move the funding from the Pentagon to the Department of Health and Human Services. There appeared to be no reason for this, yet Biden moved the program from the hands of capable administrators to an agency known for waste and failure.
How badly must a government be to screw up something that was already working? Blue Star’s factory in Virginia is “mothballed.” Not a single glove is being made. American workers are deprived of good jobs and millions of people have to buy this product from China.
It would be a powerful image for Trump to stand in front of this factory. He would blame Biden, as an example of his incompetence. Biden claims the economy is “strong,” but he is hiding his administration’s many mistakes and failures.
Key Takeaways:
- Donald Trump is considering a trip to a factory shut down by Biden.
- Trump secured funding for American companies to produce PPE.
- Biden’s mismanagement of the federal government led to these companies shutting down.
