Foxconned in Wisconsin: Trump's 8th Wonder of the World

Now, Microsoft has bought some of Foxconn’s Wisconsin property. At least somebody will work there. Instead of the 13,000 jobs promised, Foxconn has delivered only about 1000. That big orb they built? It is apparently used for storage and can be rented as a reception hall. Some say Foxconn never really planned to build there, that the company was simply trying to appease Trump and avoid threatened tariffs. That is not clear. But it is clear that Foxconn is a failure and will never put 13,000 people to work. Its empty buildings are a monument to more failed political promises.
