Glenn Beck Takes on Krugman: Why American Jobs Matter More Than Ever

Glenn Beck slammed economist Paul Krugman for attacking President Trump’s push to bring manufacturing jobs back to America. Beck ripped Krugman’s recent article where he apparently argued against making items like sneakers and textiles in the U.S., suggesting Krugman prefers keeping production in Chinese sweatshops. Beck fired back, asking why Americans shouldn’t have these jobs instead of relying on foreign child labor.

President Trump’s “America First” policies are already reviving U.S. factories. New tariffs on foreign goods and massive tax cuts for companies that build here have led to and in Trump’s first month back. Companies like TSMC, Apple, and Stellantis are expanding American operations instead of shipping jobs overseas. The Small Business Administration’s new “Made in America” initiative cuts red tape and offers loans to help small manufacturers grow.

Krugman’s opposition highlights how coastal elites look down on blue-collar work. While Krugman writes off industries like textiles as unworthy of American workers, Trump’s policies prove these jobs can thrive here without exploiting overseas labor. Beck called out the hypocrisy of claiming to care about workers while supporting trade deals that gut American towns.

Conservatives argue that rebuilding U.S. manufacturing is about national pride and security. Relying on China for basics like clothes or computer chips leaves America vulnerable. Trump’s tariffs and tax incentives are reversing decades of bad trade policies that hollowed out the Heartland. As Beck said, “Why let China dominate industries we invented? Let’s make everything here again.”

The fight over manufacturing exposes a deeper divide. Progressives like Krugman see globalism as inevitable, but Trump and his supporters believe in American workers’ ability to outcompete anyone. With at risk if Trump’s tax cuts expire, conservatives urge Congress to lock in policies that put our workers first. The choice is clear: protect American paychecks or keep lining the pockets of foreign dictators.
