    Trump: Move to the US to avoid tariffs.

    Tech companies: India it is!

      I find it hilarious that their best plan is to build up another 1.5 billion country into a superpower

    So trump won’t tariff India?

      Probably his brain is rotted and the last thing he remembers is that last thing someone told him.

      Why would he? India is no really a challenge.

      • infectoid@lemmy.world ⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

        Yet.

        All it would take is for him to have a bad interaction with someone vaguely Indian and he’ll throw down a tariff.

        Yeah, because tariffs are only reserved to large competitors on the world stage like, check notes, Canada?

        You’re applying logic when logic doesn’t apply. Why would he tarriff Canada?

    What will happen is that the Chinese government will just take over manufacturing and plants and continue to make the same products under a Chinese name.

      under a Chinese name

      Lenovo is already a Chinese company. They’re just moving production for US bound products somewhere else. I guarantee most of their production will still be in China.

    They literally have manufacturing facilities in the US as well due to the IBM acquisition. This article seems to gloss over the reality of them being globally diverse for a while.

    HP and Dell manufacture more in PRC.

      Yeah, there’s no evidence that this is because of tariffs. Companies don’t make big moves like this after only a week of changes.
