"Nobody has ever seen before" - yeah, nobody has ever seen the imaginary auto plants
Trump: "Auto plants are all coming back to our country. They're coming back from different countries where they left us for Germany and Japan and South Korea, Canada, Mexico. And they're all coming back at levels that nobody has ever seen before. Tariffs did it. I did it."

I’m so glad woke is dead. It was annoying having to be considerate of others and occasionally get yelled at online when I offended someone. I much prefer a post-woke society where private businesses get yelled at by government officials for changing a font and the military is stationed in US cities.
