Silicon Valley Grapples With Trump's Tariffs
News confirms tariffs continue to actively affect tech-adjacent sectors like robotics, drones, and semiconductors, with new tariffs being imposed (drones, AI/robotics protectionism) and supply chains being stress-tested—directly matching the prediction's thesis. However, one article notes tariffs haven't achieved their manufacturing reshoring goals, which is a partial but not direct falsification since the prediction was about supply chain rework and lobbying, not job reshoring success.
What would prove this wrong
Tariffs are rolled back or have negligible effect on tech supply chains and hiring, or if companies show no meaningful shift in sourcing or policy engagement.
