Trump Praises Navy Contract at Wisconsin Shipyard
President Trump returned to Wisconsin on Thursday and boasted about the economic benefits of a Navy contract at a shipyard on Lake Michigan.
[The] massive deal is worth up to $5.5 billion. We’ll put the shipyard to work constructing some of the fastest, most advanced and most maneuverable combat ships anywhere in the ocean. This contract will support your 1,500 full time employees, and it will also enable you to hire another 1,000 people all across the shipyards in Wisconsin. An estimated 15,000 additional new jobs will be created through the Wisconsin supply chain. You notice that’s not a supply chain going through China and going through other countries. It’s called the Wisconsin — isn’t that nice? The Wisconsin supply chain. That’s been bugging me for about 25 years. I think that’s why I became president, you want to know the truth. What we’ve done with your — great deal, the U.S.M.C.A. — and Canada no longer takes advantage of us like they did.
