💨 Abstract

Democrat Governor Whitmer of Michigan blamed President Trump's tariffs for the cancellation of a new semiconductor plant by Sandisk Corp near Flint, which would have provided thousands of jobs. Though Whitmer did not name Sandisk, state records indicated the company. Republican officials support Trump's tariffs and incentives to bring back manufacturing. Democratic officials criticized Trump's policies, attributing the loss to his chaotic tariff practices. The project included significant state incentives, but Sandisk decided against building in the U.S
