Translation: We promise “good” jobs like mining emeralds in South Africa and working construction in exotic locations like Eastern Europe to rebuild cities while learning Russian.
I think he has watched those Chinese videos of the assembly line of people doing nothing while the robots do all the work. He might think that is normal.
Yeah that's not how capitalism works but ok. Good thing Republicans have a long history of creating jobs so we can totally believe this guy ... Oh wait
#howardlutnickisanudnik #howardlutnickoversizeseverything There are approximately 170,100 robotics engineers working in the United States, reports Vault. Over the next 10 years, the U.S. alone will need 12,500 engineers in the field.
Stupid has no bounds. Robots have practical uses but robots don’t buy things. They don’t contribute to taxes. They don’t fuel the economy. Impoverish as many people as you can and you dry up a huge source of your income.
I like round numbers. Thrilled to hear it’s going to be 5 million, because 4.3 million just doesn’t have the same ring to it. Especially when you are talking about imaginary things - which is a Republican specialty.
So very very true... Though to be fair, it seems that Republicans have cornered the market on worlds dumbest people and they're all fighting to prove who is the stupidest.
Every time I think they won't say something even stupider, they prove me wrong. At this point I'm wondering if they're trying to figure out how some of them can walk and talk at the same time.
They could care less if it does or not, stop being naive!
As for media, talk about being told what to ask and how to ask it!
This is no longer media sadly, reporting news is now bought and paid for talking points that are aloud to be told!
So the amount of jobs created to build the factories will be sustained to maintain the factories?
And Apple, OpenAI won’t automate the shit out of whatever they can to increase profit margins?
Why do they just let him spew the most nonsensical garbage?
Name a business that will buy a robot that has cameras for eyes & microphones for ears. It will communicate to who and what will this spy actually be connected to?
Replace Lutnick with a robot. It'll create a job the real guy is worthy of: cleaning up the grease traps in a fast food joint after it closes for the night.
A large reason for the tariffs is it is something the Boy-king can levy and remove on his own. He thinks it makes him look like a big shot-and his sycophants are too cowardly to tell him he's a wrecking ball and to call him out.
If a Dem did this, the Repubs would be apoplectic! 🤦🏽♂️🤡
You know why he’s so sure of it? Because, like Trump, he’ll tell a story full of lies and their followers will eat it all up as fact. They lie like others breathe. He will be held to account, ultimately, and the families of the CF employees he stiffed will say “Justice served.”
"5 million guaranteed 6-figure jobs" is what I took from this. I mean it would be amazing if it happens. Can we all please remember this and hold them accountable if it doesn't happen? We need to be better at gathering evidence like this.
If you believe that major mfgers will expand their US operations without relying on automation in a huge way vs. hiring humans - you must also believe in trickle down economics, that Trump won the 2020 election, and the tooth fairy is the one leaving your money under your pillow.
Agreed.
Mfg'ers will get bigly tax breaks to move back to the US - promising tons of good-paying jobs.
They will hire a lot of construction workers and an initial group of employees for the first few years - but then - most will be replaced by automation/AI/robots.
Now, there are bigtime reasons for automation in our supply chain. The industry is down about 2-3M people - and is not interested in paying a lot to lure them into the mix . Amazon is already offering up to $22/hr in some areas...but I can't see them going higher. However, I see the potential for
Seen more of this guy on TV, especially cnbc market channel, in 2 days trying to mansplain tariff mistakes than last 3 administrations secretary of commerce together..in fact couldn't name them could u...it's All about the markets to these people and how to benefit...robots over people par example
Lutnick is quickly earning the title of stupidest cabinet member. And that takes some doing.
Anyone who has taken econ 101 knows that not only does automation reduce the labor force it also reduces the volume of wages circulating in the economy causing stagnation and a lowering of wages.
Why do these people give the propaganda bot airtime? He's just a bullshit peddler and will never vary from the party line. Regardless of how insanely bizarre his arguments are.
This asshat blames unions of course. What a fucking asshole, unions did not wreck American manufacturing, the quest for more profit did, greed did, hubris and arrogance did.
This trump depression is gonna be the greatest depression believe you me. You'll be so tired of depressing. Greatest depressing.. They're eating the dawgs. Puti and I we went thru well not as much as Epstein now there was a man Palmer's cock tears it his eyes tariff here but gone great tv
Another idiot who thinks he's smart because he's rich. American economy has moved away from manufacturing. Any politician who says the tariffs will bring back manufacturing jobs is either delusional or he's lying.
And anyone who thinks factory workers, electricians, and plumbers make $150,000 a year is delusional, too, although I think to him that sounds like very little money.
Do you know how hard David had to stifle that laugh for the sake of his job. I have watched David and Carl for years, and believe me, they know bullshit when they see it.
On the other hand, Joe Toupee Kernan and Booyah Crammer would be doing the Trump weiner pull dance.
Crazy idea, create the training, then jobs first before you impose mass unemployment with few available livable wage jobs for people to fill. It’s almost like maybe he’s making it up.
As for fed employees in D.C. area, certainly those level of 6-figure salaries made rest of America blanch (and I lived recently in SF Bay Area, another place of unaffordability)
But with the total absence of income equity in a nation with obscene wealth inequity, my priority..
The entire interview was insane and barely tethered to reality.
Facts mean nothing to Frank Lutnick and the truth means nothing to the staff at @cnbc.com
Well, yeah... sort of. They will need some people with knowledge and skills to program and develop (read college degrees). What kind of people will they replace? Less educated?? This is why I have a hard rule at the grocery store - if I have more than two items, I will not use the self check out.

It's total bullshit
Hope your warranty expires soon you piece of shit.
"Our real president is trying to create self driving cars for taxis.
And self driving trucks for freight.
But those are just an anomaly."

Selling it to MAGA.

Gone.
And then what?
Blame it on Obama? Hillary? Hunter's Laptop?
The Trump standard.
I can tell that's bull$hit through a smart phone screen.
Humans don’t.

HOW will the robots create jobs? Explain it to me like my life depends on it.
Go
if this is possible, and it isn’t, but IF it’s possible, do you know what they would need? IMMIGRANTS.
just look at Apple, Microsoft, Netflix, Amazon and Google employees, when we talk high skilled jobs a huge chunk are immigrants
This will be the new work force

💙✌️💙
Where is the evidence they are providing the ability for them to get back to (paying) work???
But with the total absence of income equity in a nation with obscene wealth inequity, my priority..
By the way, if you have the whetstone, I can do the sharpening
So yeah, the United States fell into its deep decline 45 years ago, and I have been there to witness it
