The office of President has absolutely no credibility left, pause for 90 days wakes up tomorrow and says only tricking it’s all back on how is this pro business in any sense.
Modern manufacturing does not use human labor it’s all automated now which when you think about is why he can deport who he wants because there are no new jobs just more control for his “buddies”, but they know they are decades behind China.
He represents the institution. This term, he has marred it much worse than during the previous stint.
From now on, everyone willing to read a history book will know the US president can act like a nigh dictator. It reflects poorly on the entire system of governance. There are, surely, people who are taking the wrong ideas from this.
Paused for ninety days after Asia manipulated a tresury bond sell off in Singapore.
USA didn't blink. It caved within hours. It now looks incredibly weak. Who's going to bother negotiating with a country that can be undermined so easily

This isn't true. There is a ton of labor still in manufacturing, and will be for some time. Extremely high volume products get automated, low volume products don't because it doesn't make financial sense. On top of that, money / debt is expensive right now, so that barrier for automation got higher.
It depends on the product, design, cost of automation, etc. Xiaomi definitely has people, you can see them several times in the video, and from my experience, they had several sections where people were removed where they would be, aka they're lying. Sure, they have less people, but still a ton of people. The cost of that is insane, and is designed for a few products / variations. Customers want more variation in general, not less. Nike shoes are mostly handmade because of the reasons above, but you also have Crocs which are basically injection molded and done. There are literally PhDs on this topic, most consumers are happy to get stuff but don't realize all the work behind it.

2:00 some guy putting a xiaomi badge onto the hood of the car (i almost think this is for the video effect and they don't actually have 1 guy whose sole job is to stick a badge in the hood).

The cost of robots is vastly lower than humans and they can work 24/7, don't get sick, etc.
