How a company with a decades long history of scams and inflated claims is able to Still fool politicians is beyond me. Their name is literally Fox Con, and somehow politicians are convinced each time that letting a fox into the taxpayers pocket won't be a con... This time.

Apple has told Foxcom to move some production of iPhones to India, for tax reasons and in case things in China go awry.

Exile the Wisconsin politicians who framed the Fox Con to India.  And take TFG who bragged about it.

The difference between China and India is that China will deliver on your bribes.

The politicians aren't being fooled.  It's the voters who are being fooled.  Specifically, the voters on the Republican side who are consistently lied by the Republicans they keep voting into office.  The politicians know exactly what they're doing.  Stop voting for Republicans.

This will definitely go ahead, but they're "investments" not investments, aka loans that will totally boost your economy and you'll have them paid back in no time but if you don't we get all of your land.

October, 2022:

"There literally is a gorgeous six-lane highway that was built for 18,000 vehicles and automated trucks [that looks] totally abandoned. It's incredible," says representative Gordon Hintz, a member of the Wisconsin State Assembly.

I am sure Wisconsin salt of the earth voters will get on that right after they help their senator Ron Johnson and his caucus with Rick Scott repeal social security and Medicare, pass a 35% federal sales tax and abolish income taxes.
Hey, remember when we considered Paul Ryan a talentless, corrupt hack?  He looks like Harry Truman at this point in comparison.
