@GuntherEagleman🚨 TARIFFS WORK: First Solar just opened a $330 MILLION factory in Gaffney, South Carolina. About 500 Americans are already working there, and it'll be nearly 700 by next year. The company itself says the plant was driven by demand from President Trump's TRADE POLICIES. Lutnick put it plainly: China cheats with subsidies and dumping to crush American workers. Trump fought back, and the factories are coming home. That's what winning looks like.
