Most likely not "Fake News" although it comes from an anonymous source, but "anonymous sources" say that on Wednesday, President Trump, Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker, and Apple Contractor Foxconn will make the announcement that Foxconn will be building a plant in Wisconsin to make Apple products, most likely for iPhone components in the USA, adding to the Apple manufacturing that is already done in the USA which includes the iMac in Elk Grove, CA, the Mac Pro in Austin, Texas, and Gorilla Glass screens for iPhones and iPads at Corning. This Wisconsin plant was first rumored back in June. — PING!
