$170 miilion does not sound like a factory big enough to build tractors.

Riding lawn mowers?

I've been in manufacturing for a long, long, long, whew!!! forever time. (it seems). I still can't claim to know how much a factory should cost for whatever product, but --- According to a news thingie I read, they'll be doing Excavators. Some new gen tools. But of course, the best part, as was pointed out by the video that brought us here, is that it all happened before DT took office. So, maybe he just misread the dates on this one.

didn’t misread it. His people put that in his notes to make it look like it happened under his watch-2025. It did not.

But it was Biden that got the deal. Trump always takes credit for the accomplishment of others. Remember that whenever he's bragging about all he's done.

seem to be good at taking credit for different things, especially things they voted against.
