With today’s tech, from prefab steel buildings to computerized lathes I think much quicker than “years”.
Especially with President Trump in charge.
For any criticism I may sound like I send his direction, I am just concerned and I really see him as the one candidate who ran in the last twenty years, who is really for America once again.
Maybe he is slowly and quietly, making preparations for such an operation.
After all, fifty years ago the A-bomb was constructed by teams all over the country, without anyone being aware.
Could just be, that might happen once again.
With steel and CNC equipment imported from china?
Good luck with that.
Domestic manufacturers of these materials and technologies are between exceedingly rare, to nonexistent.
Try to buy a US sourced machine tool, with 100% US sourced component content.
The US abandoned heavy manufacturing in the 1980’s for cheap foreign labor in third world communist countries.
Large US companies are sales, marketing, and financial firms now.
The chinese think decades ahead in their planning. Americans don’t see anything past the next quarter.
