Well, yeah, you have a point. I myself am doubting that I've ever understood anything about the world, the result is such a shock.
However, manufacturing is never "coming back," it's already here, just automated with fewer people, and different. The world can only absorb so many cars and sponges. So those tariffs are just going to raise prices for people who are un- or underemployed and can't afford what they need now.
There are already more job openings than applicants. Getting rid of the illegal workforce is going to cost businesses (or drive some out of business), raising prices, etc etc. A few unemployed will fill some of those jobs, but at legal rates with employment taxes.
Getting rid of health insurance that many of his supporters are now enjoying is going to be a whiff of smelling salts to some of them.
My greatest hope is that he tries to follow through on everything in his contract with America. The chaos could potentially turn the 2018 mid term elections. That and inevitable demographics will rid us of his ilk in 2020, 2024 at the latest.
But like I said at the top, I doubt my own faculties today.
