For those curious as I to the article's "what":
President Biden will travel to Racine County, Wisconsin, on Wednesday to unveil a $3.3 billion investment by Microsoft to build a new artificial intelligence data center, according to Biden officials.
and the "why":
He'll be taking a not-so-subtle shot at former President Trump in the same location where Trump touted a $10 billion Foxconn facility, which he called the "eighth wonder of the world" seven years ago.
Microsoft closing a bunch of game studios and investing billions on AI at the same time, that's just great huh
Closing a bunch of profitable game studios*
They weren't floundering (at least Tango Gameworks wasn't, I Guess I'm not positive on the others).
Was Trump's $10 billion Foxconn facility built? Is it thriving today?
Edit: googled and answered my own question, it was never built.
Didn't stop them from collecting $3 billion in tax breaks though
Fucking Racine
Why would anyone build anything in that shithole?
O&H kringles.
The now deceased Foxconn factory...
Racine county is located between Chicago and Milwaukee. In 2012, Obama won this county by 51% - 47% margin. In 2020, the county went for Trump by 51% - 47% margin.
It's not like his supporters actually look into things. He tweeted that he opened an Apple factory in Texas that had been open since 2012 or something when he visited it. All his stupid goobers undoubtedly believed him.
Voters don't want to hear about billions for corporations.
Guarenting a Biden victory is as easy as him publicly denouncing Israel and stopping all weapons sales and "aid" to Israel.
That's it. Just stop funding a genocide.
But he cares more about supporting Israel's genocide than preventing trump from becoming president.
The economy is far more important than Gaza to most voters.

It's debatable if this stuff really helps. It raises GDP, but all that money stays with very few people.
-
Biden has those voters already. What he doesn't have is the demographics that care about their tax dollars funding a genocide: the youth, minorities, and progressives. So if he's doing this for the votes, it's a waste of time effort and money.
If beating trump is all that matters, why aren't people demanding Biden do the stuff that most helps him beat trump?
Why can Biden pick and choose with no regard for what is effective, but voters have to shut up and vote blue no matter who?
The only place that leads is effectively having zero say in who our president is.
The next Republican will be at least as bad as trump, shit doesn't just get better over there.

That's not even a majority opinion in the voters of the Democratic Party. I really don't know where you people are getting your idea of the American electorate.
I really don’t know where you people are getting your idea of the American electorate.
They get their ideas about the American electorate from their Online and IRL echo chambers.
A poll was just released saying a majority of Democrats characterize what's happening as a genocide, and 30% said it was a top issue. 40% of likely voters in general call it a genocide and 70% want a permanent ceasefire. Where are you getting your idea of the American electorate from? Cause poll after poll has shown a majority of Americans and a large majority of Democrats, even if they won't call it a genocide, disapprove of what's happening in Palestine.
Even so if it was a fringe issue this election is looking to be incredibly close and may be decided by 10,000 of those "fringe" voters in Dearborn Michigan deciding not to vote for Biden.
Voters don't want to hear about billions for corporations.
Maybe if you read the article, you would know it's "from" not "for"
You really are Hell-bent on getting Trump elected (thus ensuring the extermination of the Palestinians you claim to care so deeply about), aren't you?
