Trump pledged voters and supporters that the U.S. would see a "mass exodus of manufacturing" from countries like Korea and China if they voted for him in the presidential election in November.
Trump outlined plans to provide tax incentives and reduce red tape for companies that manufacture goods in the U.S., while vowing to impose high tariffs on American companies that produce goods overseas.
"I want German car companies to become American car companies. I want them to build their plants here," Trump said, emphasizing his commitment to prioritizing U.S. industries.
Trump also vowed to appoint a "manufacturing ambassador" tasked with encouraging international manufacturers to relocate to the U.S. and also create special federal zones with "ultra-low taxes and regulations" to attract foreign businesses.
"Under my plan, American workers will no longer be worried about losing your jobs to foreign nations. Instead, foreign nations will be worried about losing their jobs to America," Trump said.
His remarks appear to be part of efforts to win over swing voters in the battleground state where recent polls show a tight race.
Trump also criticized his Democratic rival, Kamala Harris, calling her a "tax queen" and questioning her competence for the presidency.
Georgia has already been revitalizing since the passage of the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) in 2022, which spurred massive investments from manufacturers like Korean automaker Hyundai, whose plant for electric vehicles and hybrids has created thousands of jobs there.
