“America First” or Imported Steel? A Question of Words vs. Action
Apr 15, 2026By Debra Flint-Salter
Made in the USA and his phrase 'America First' are just words, not action or support of the many steel and iron workers that have been laid off, as he accepts donated steel from Europe. What a liar.....no surprise.......unpatriotic.... ...ya think?.......and no regard for the American industries that should be used for an American structure if he is so inclined to have it built! Let this sink in and understand how full of crap this man is, and his constant BS of MAGA, as it was only a branding tool!
'While the White House imports foreign steel to build Trump’s ugly Epstein Ballroom, California is opening its first new steel plant in 50 years,” gloated Gov. Newsom via his official press office account, referring to Pacific Steel breaking ground on a new mill in his state this week.
The governor also responded on his personal account, suggesting a new slogan for the administration: “Make America Luxembourg Again?”
Another pointed criticism was offered by Minnesota state senator Grant Hauschild, who wrote: “Foreign steel in the White House? Are you kidding? We’ve got Iron Range mines shut down & 100’s of United Steelworkers laid off.
“Instead, they’re outsourcing one of the most iconic American buildings overseas! American steel built this country, it should build the White House too.”
