      Also all the material I need I need to build that production plant is under a 104% tariff. NBD.

          Not to mention those trained people mentioned above attempting to move here have to fight deportation for checks notes, coming here on a work visa, having a tattoo, speaking your mind, not being white. Hard to say really.
