We have no way of knowing whether that is true or not, but let's assume that it is. We'll find out who in congress supports US jobs and who is interested in using materials made in foreign countries.

Many of these people will be up for re-election. Do you think that this could become and issue at that time?

My guess is that close to 100% of the republicans will vote in favor of the president's order and those democrats that up for re-election and are interested in keeping their jobs will do the same.

If the president did nothing else, he is forcing congress to reveal themselves.
