Janet Yellen's Claim About Trump's Manufacturing 'Pipe Dream' Aged Horribly In an HOUR

Doug P. | 1:55 PM on April 14, 2025

The best thing about Janet Yellen these days is that she's now the "former" Treasury Secretary, but the media's still having her on to provide "expert" analysis (and you know how right the "experts" have been in the last few years).

Yellen's latest comments that were rather quickly proven not entirely correct happened when she called the Trump administration's goal of returning manufacturing to the U.S. a "pipe dream":

The same politicians who sold American workers out to foreign countries for decades now say an American manufacturing renaissance is a "pipe dream" that isn't even a "desirable goal."

1) @POTUS doesn't accept that.

2) That attitude is how we got here.

3) They hate you. pic.twitter.com/BbtyVABSGb

Those are some serious "you can't bring it back because we already killed it" vibes from Yellen.

Also, as usual, she's wrong.

Shortly after Yellen's interview, this happened:

Right on cue!

Former Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen claims that revitalizing Americas manufacturing base is a “pipe dream.”

Within an hour of this statement, NVIDIA announced a $500,000,000,000 investment plan that would debut the first American made supercomputer.
