Business favors predictability and consistency. It doesn't matter so much what politicians do so long as the business and financial market is predictable and consistent for long periods of time. Markets have enough volatility without politics adding to the mix. Businesses by and large aren't going to make significant investments in increasing US manufacturing without that predictability and consistency. There have been a few making promises to invest in US manufacturing, but you'll notice the details are always scant and a timeline is rarely mentioned. As such, it's understood to be posturing for the current administration in order to curry favor.

There's only so much room for those folks I'm not sure many businesses can count on that advantage or afford to maintain it (even some that seemed to be in found themselves out and having to suck up again).
