    “Obviously, I don’t know all of his ideas, but let me tell you about two that are incredible,” answered Huang. "The first one is utterly visionary. The idea of tariffs being a pillar of a bold vision to re-industrialize to onshore manufacturing and motivate the world to invest in the United States is just an incredible vision. I think this is going to be a transformative idea for the next century for us, explained the Nvidia CEO.

    That’s some hardcore brown-nosing by Huang. There is no other way to frame it.

        Most CEOs are. They can spout words endlessly without ever actually saying anything, but apparently investors like the tone of it.

          Now that you mention it… It totally makes sense why AI is taking off with all of these companies despite clearly having massive fundamental issues. They’re used to the machinations and hallucinations every day already, they don’t see any issues with it.

      I have no recollection of him using sarcasm, but this kind of reads like extremely naive, or thick sarcasm.
      Since we know he is obviously very smart regarding business, it surprises me he would be this naive.
      IDK he may just use the rhetoric that benefits Nvidia most under the circumstances?

    Step 1: Enact tariffs. Step 2: Eliminate Taxes, and convert federal revenue to a tariff-funded system. Step 3: Anger international trading partners leading to reduced trade, thus reduced tariff revenue for the federal government. Step 4: Federal government goes broke and the oligarchy turns every town into a company town.
