*As a side note I am glad this place does not get overly political.  For the record I don't hate the president but I get weary of the political rhetoric and I fear we are going to punch China in the face at a VERY bad time as our economy struggles.  I probably better get used to it with an election approaching.

Yes, I think trade tensions with China are going to ratchet up more. I think this epidemic was a huge wake-up call that outsourcing all of your country's manufacturing is a horrible idea.

It's one thing to do that with a country you can trust, but I don't trust China. At all.

I expect the president is going to do all he can to get critical pharma, tech, and equipment manufacturing back to the Unites State ASAP.
That seems doable for pharma.  It would seem tech could at least spread it out to other countries. Not holding my breath for a big shift in heavy manufacturing this decade.  The GOV would have to fund it, and we would have to warm up to some serious inflation.  I think the horse is out of the barn on globalism and just spreading it out is where we'll head for now.  Part of my port is not looking forward to the election season.  Economy is shot until well past November and this is the only way I see left to fire up the base.  He doesn't have to do it anything close to right, he just has to raise hell for now.  He is good at that so I'll fasten my seat belt.  Smile
