An AI-generated video mocking the prospect of Americans working factory jobs has been viewed over 6 million times in the wake of President Trump’s tariff agenda. NY Post writer Brian Faas shares this story.
The video — aimed at undermining the Trump administration’s promise to create US manufacturing jobs using tariffs — depicts depressed-looking, larger-bodied “Americans” working in sweatshop-like environments set to a twangy score of traditional Chinese music.
The US workers are depicted as obese, middle-aged and dull-witted as they sit, twiddling at sewing machines, in the video shared by TikTok user Ben Lau, who captioned the AI clip “Make America great again #tariff #america.”
