Lutnick on CNBC: It's not about helping workers (though he tries to say the opposite


"Why can't iphones be made in the US with robotics?" Then later says "We need to employ Americans, but Americans can be much more efficient with robotics."

Frequently repeats the "We've been picked on" butt hurt gaslighting.

Says a dollar collapse is not possible while graphics on screen show US dollar down against Euro and pound about 2% and 1% just in one day.

Dodges question about CEOs going to sit back for a year or two before making big plant investments: Says McDonalds could not bring french fries to Korea because they couldn't state the country of origin of the potatoes as required by Korea. In my view, that is McDonalds fault, not Korea's fault. After all, who trusts Chinese food? Who wants Chinese potatoes.

the factories might, given time, come back... the JOBS will not. The factories will be completely automated.

when POTUS literally changes his mind/positions on these major issues in the time it takes him to get from one microphone being in front of his mouth to the next on an hourly basis?
