>If you were Trump how would you fix American manufacturing?
There are people who haven't had a full-time job that pays well since Covid. Lotta people working gigs with no benefits. I'll wager those folks would line up for factory work.
>Chinese castings typically have a shit ton of porosity.
The good news for the rest of the world is China uses the same steel to build their own military hardware. Remember the jet engines the blew apart?
>Casting on the engine-mounts broke just from running the damm thing.
Imagine aircraft parts made of the same crap steel.
>some of our Navy ships
Yeah, unfortunately we got some bad parts. Maybe submarine parts too.
But ENTIRE Chinese ships, submarines and aircraft are made out crap steel and crap aluminum.
