All the machines are unplugged right now?

When are they going to be pressed for the locations of all these manufacturing plants.

This Administration is full of just plain old stupid people and Donald Trump is a genius and don't worry, good things will happen... Wow, just wow...

Not necessarily a lie, per se. He may be conflating and expanding on several things he hears in passing from his fascist compatriots: construction of concentration camps, machines to process the inventory, and AI to manage it all

Lemme guess, in two weeks, right?

Hmmm. Seems there should be workers building those factories and workers installing those machines. Are those factories springing up out of thin air?

You don't just plug in industrial systems.

He seems to have a four year old’s understanding of the economy. Without the “why mommy why”curiosity that would make him actually knowledgeable. Sad.

I've got a revelation for Hassett, very few manufacturing companies are planning capital expenditures to buy new "machines" to plug in right now. The tariffs are killing them!!

The stupidity is staggering. Has this idiot ever slept through business 101, the section where they cover plants and capital development projects?

He’s not a serious person at all

Great “analysis” genius. 🤦

This asshole is like that energy vampire in What We Do in the Shadows, except he sucks away all your intellect.

Sounds like most of the building is Hassett's creative building of a bullsh** scenario.

Exactly.

Yea, he needs to smile his ass out of politics.

The only machines plugging in today are killing jobs.

I will never understand why these people willingly debase themselves for Mr. Piggy.

Same vibe of “if they would just let the water flow”

Legit question: Does anyone live in an area where a new factory is being built, or an old factory renovated? If so, are they hiring? And if they are, are they hiring Americans, or did they bring their own people? The one new "opportunity" in my area brought its own employees from Canada, so...

The machines that were subject to tariffs from countries with technicians who get harassed by CBP. Why do business in the US?

WHAT?????

So I take it in two weeks the machines will be plugged in then?

Why, once the robots are plugged in they’ll do the job

That's all it takes!!! Who didn't think of that before???

Seriously! WTF does that even mean?

A clown.

Can he keep this going all the way to November? "The machines are plugged in, the employee parking lot has been paved, the human resources forms have been printed, the key card system has been activated, and as soon the the floor paint dries, they'll be hiring the workers."

Happiness is just round the bend 😉

Energy vampire, Colin Robinson is at it again.

He’s either stupid, or he thinks we are.

Hassett’s smug demeanor drives me nuts.

This assholes answer is par for the course for republicans

Really???? What an effing moron you are. If they are putting in machines, asshole, there won’t be any jobs, ffs🤬🤬🤬

What "machines," Hassett? The ones that MAGA & the ICE troops shuttered in North Carolina thanks to roughing up the Koreans who tried to invest in America? The ones your boss shut down because of his ridiculous tariff attacks on Canada? I mean, c'mon, you can't keep kicking the can down the road.

Dear @cnn.com , Please ask this asshole where these buildings are being constructed? I've personally never heard of one groundbreaking. NOT ONE

Has he ever ever ever been in a factory or plant? A steel mill? A smelter? Anywhere besides a financial institution corporate office?

Jam… tomorrow!

Spending on building manufacturing plants has dropped every month trump has been in office. bsky.app/profile/jayd...

Was this two kindergartners; her holding his hand while they walk across the street? She nods as he tells her, "We are good."

Come to Mpls, bitch

Yet, please keep investing in AI so we can replace workers with robots and make more profit.

This is the guy Trump is going to make the chair of the fed. He is going to force interest rates down and cause our economy to tank due to China and Japan calling in their markers. Trump's a Russian asset and is doing Pit n's work. Republicans are scared because there is blackmail on them from Putin

The plugs to the kuka robots? Those plugs?

Wanna guess why they aren't plugged in? There's no power to supply them. The infrastructure isn't able to handle the load. Wanna guess who consistently denies funding for expanding infrastructure at every level of government?

nobody even buys a machine for business unless they already have somebody to run it. a machine sitting idle is a waste of money

And, if they did, they'd be robotic with precious few human employees.

Life support machines?

Plugged in??

Really talented guy. I mean, to stand there with that insipid smile on his face and lie like that takes real skill.

Tired: manufacturing jobs. Wired: manufacturing job numbers.

Once horses grow horns, we'll all have unicorns.

There used to be so many new people coming in 2023( when I was shifted from the consumer to the space and defense department) now there's barely a person

Thank you for the Sesame Street level of explanation of how our economy works. I am afraid Kermit has some follow up questions.

Oh please, won't you save us "the machines"?!

Once they learn to swim, we'll fill the pools with water.

He means ... AI is coming ... for your jobs.

*Grabs Suspenders* I may be just a small town such-and-such, machines aren’t usually plugged and ran until there’s people to do so.

yeah, all those machines built by the declining construction jobs ... - totally checks out.

He remains invincible. open.substack.com/pub/thebulwa...

Even if we accept that as a viable explanation for the lack of manufacturing job growth, it doesn’t explain the LOSS of manufacturing jobs.

So they get everything up and running, and then they hire people? The product line is running, but they haven't hired anyone to work it? That doesn't sound efficient at all.

Why do they just repeat these government numbers without even a statement noting that they are probably not accurate?

Mike MyPillow Lindell has a class action lawsuit against ALL machines. He will STOP THE MACHINES Kevin! Who should we believe?

So the machines will be hiring humans? Sounds like Hal the Computer.... www.youtube.com/shorts/5lsEx...

I think Hassett would have failed my economics class in college. LOL.

look up "sycophant" and you'll see this weasel's picture

Only problem is: there are no machines....

How many of these jobs are due to replacing deported immigrants?

"And if I'm wrong, sue me!"

Are the machines in the room with us right now? 🙄

Propaganda

And whole families can get to screwing.

Former industrial engineer here (in addition to other things), that's not how any of that works dumbass.

Why are they not hiring workers to plug them in?

I don't remember seeing any news stories about a high demand for machines last year given that they need to be purchased before they can be turned on.

Hassett laziest tech support: “Have you tried plugging it in?”

About the time the factory jobs would hit, these guys will be ready to hit the ground running..

Who is going to be able to afford to buy these all singing all dancing human replacing machines They don’t exist, & if they did no SME could afford them This is a scam, followed by a billionaire tech bro monopoly take over…

What machines is he talking about

The explanation for the jobs numbers is obviously that the stooges that Trump installed in the Labor Department are inventing their own statistics.

I work in manufacturing, machines are plugged in there’s just no business. These idiots don’t understand that U.S. companies don’t only sell to U.S. customers. They also sell to other countries. But because of tariffs and complete incompetence of our government, other countries are buying elsewhere.

Do ya think them numbers were cooked?

Please ask these liars where these factories are.

Will the robots do the hiring, Kevin?!?

Who is plugging in the machines then?

Ah so they were unplugged. Makes sense.

The horror of the moron… what the heck is Hassett talking about?! These kakistocratic cabinet members of this rogue regime are plain evil and stupid!

The machines will be hiring the workers?

Bu... bu... but... those machines rely on parts built in countries that are being attacked by Trump tariffs.

#Two-weeks

Scripted Answer, that he practiced😁

Considering the lack of truth & transparency in this administration, show your work because we can’t believe a word you say.

Hassett: At least that's what GROK tells me...

Wow, would hope that somebody in that position would know that's not really how it works. But they are all just lying extremist idealogs by this point...

🤣😂

I don't understand, they have deported hundreds of thousands of people, right? That should be hundreds of thousands of new jobs. Where are the job jobs that all the immigrants took?

Sounds simple right🤔simple and stupid

Why didn't anyone ever tell us that we just needed to plug in some machines, and we'd have jobs? Who knew it was so easy?

Gotta plug in those machines!!!

Wow can’t wait! “Hey everyone! Hurry! They’re plugging the machines in! What machines? I don’t know!? The machines!!!!”.

"The US manufacturing sector is in recession."

AI is supposed to do all the work or so we are told

Construction is in fact going down.

Do ANY of them ever tell the truth?

The entire MSM in America is pathetically weak. I think the last good TV interviewer was Tim Russert. These MSM people don't give a💩about getting facts. It's all about how many viewers they get and how much advertising dollars they can sell.

she sucks, remember when she claimed milk prices doubled under Biden?

"Us rich people will never need other people again!"

The check is in the mail, trust me bro, no really, any day now, it'll be fine 😜

Are the machines in your head?
