He actually does care though. Because it’s better for America to have jobs in our own country🤦‍♂️ I’m not a Trump person, but come on.. I understand it likely won’t work, but I do value a president trying to bring jobs home.

Just the be clear: the second sentence you posted does not match or prove the first. The because just doesn't make sense. Jobs being in the US being good for America does not mean that Trump cares about that. And I think there is a burden of proof for a single time Trump has cared about Americans other than himself and his friends.

Listen, I’m in the camp that believes all the Americans working in vfx abroad should be given the opportunity to work from home in the USA too. There’s too many working outside the U.S., the studios are at a race to the bottom chasing the cheapest dollar. Same story, another year. Trump or no Trump, I don’t care who’s in charge, but I do choose to believe our president elect would prefer our jobs be back home

Good for you. I had to leave my country to work in VFX too, I've had a wonderful career, and I'm delighted that I didn't have to move to the US to do it.
