Trump Tariffs and Ozempic

I saw a few different headlines about Trump's tariff plans. It sounds stupid and lazy and will backfire. The idea is that the US can bring manufacturing back onshore via a couple simple policies, like high tariffs, even though the present US position is the result of decades of laws, corporate action, educational choices of millions of people, etc...

Can the US outcompete China? Probably, but it would be a huge effort, and nobody wants to make that effort because people are dumb and lazy and corporations are greedy and lazy. It reminds me of "ozempic", which is a diabetes drug, but can also be used as a weight loss drug--but it has horrible side effects and doesn't actually make a person healthy. It's not going to increase VO2 max, or muscle mass or anything salutary, plus it has potentially horrible and deadly side effects.
