For the factory workers in the industrial heartland it will be good.
So we should expect to see more manufacturing jobs? How long will they take to show up? What kind of products will they build?

For the general population it will be bad.
The idea of manufacturing more, cutting budget deficit etc may be a good idea. The way they go about it with trade wars pissing off countries usually friendly to the US is dubios. The DOGE and internal politics does not seem much better but that is not really any of my business as a non American.
Also if you want to cut deficit you should fund the IRS more, not less.

Mexico was importing these car parts. Because we Tariffed Mexico and Canada, the Mexico and Canadian factories are closing down.
Which is now closing down factories in the heartland of America.
Lose lose for everyone.
