This is a LCD manufacturing plant ...

And the first step in place to commence robotic assembly of Apple iPhones....and other similar products IN THE USA.

Think about it ...the screen that you see in a smart phone is a big part of the cost of the phone

Rest is a few complex chips (made by Intel)...battery and case.

The MAGA is strong with this one.

Although true that much of the iPhone is done overseas, there are many components of the iPhone already done here in the USA. Corning is a major supplier of the glass. Many of the chips in the iPhone are designed and made here in the USA. Apple has nearly two-thirds of their worldwide employees working here in the USA. Can't be said of other smart phone makers. Foxconn building here will increase the USA-content of iPhones, way beyond other popular smart phones.
