Hyperbole much?
"Computer and electronic product manufacturing shipments totaled $339.4 billion in 2012 and accounted for 5.9 percent of total U.S. manufacturing shipments. Shipments of semiconductor and related devices, such as integrated circuits, memory chips, microprocessors, diodes, transistors, solar cells and other optoelectronic devices, totaled $72.2 billion or one-fifth of industry output that year."

Just one city in China makes 90% of the world’s electronics ,proof:

China destroyed the U.S. electronics industry
Try reading that link first before you give false "stats"
She other 10% made in Japan,S. Korea, Asia .
Show me NUMBERS of how many smart phones or laptops are manufactured in the USA, not shipped , assembled but manufactured.
I've never seen a smart phone or laptop made in the USA . I do see Made in China on the back of all my electronics like my smart phone,laptop etc. . What planet are you on? show me a picture that you have with a smart phone made in the USA ok?
The USA “assembles” toyotas most of Japanese parts and China made electronics parts.
If the USA manufactures so much electronics why does the USA have to import all these hundreds billions of dollars worth of electronics (most if not all from China):

Electronics
In 2017, American importers spent the most on the following 10 subcategories of electronic equipment:
Phone system devices including smartphones: US$113.1 billion (up 7.7% from 2016)
Integrated circuits/microassemblies: $33.5 billion (up 8.9%)
TV receivers/monitors/projectors: $24.6 billion (up 5.2%)
Insulated wire/cable: $20.2 billion (up 4.2%)
Electrical converters/power units: $14.2 billion (up 0.7%)
TV receiver/transmit/digital cameras: $11.9 billion (up 12.1%)
Electrical/optical circuit boards, panels: $11.3 billion (up 6.5%)
Unrecorded sound media: $11.3 billion (up 28.9%)
Lower-voltage switches, fuses: $10.9 billion (up 4.4%)
Solar power diodes/semi-conductors: $10.7 billion (down -22.8%)
Among these import subcategories, America’s purchases of unrecorded sound media (up 28.9%), TV receivers, transmitters, and digital cameras (up 12.1%) and integrated circuits or microassemblies (up 8.9%) grew at the fastest pace from 2016 to 2017.
These amounts and the percentage gains within parenthesis clearly show where the strongest demand lies for different types of imported electronics among US businesses and consumers.
Machinery
