Nu vill Trump hålla kvar US Steel i USA med tullar och inte låta Japans största stålbolag köpa upp det.
"President-elect Donald Trump has again indicated that he intends to block a Japanese firm’s $15 billion takeover bid of US Steel upon taking office, saying the former American giant can eventually stand on its own."
“Through a series of Tax Incentives and Tariffs, we will make U.S. Steel Strong and Great Again,” he said on his Truth Social platform on Monday. “As President, I will block this deal from happening. Buyer Beware!!”
Stålarbetarnas fackförbund stödde Kamala Harris som president men stödjer nu Trumps försök att blockera affären.
"The United Steelworkers union, which endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris for president, said Tuesday it supported Trump’s opposition to the deal, writing in a statement: “The USW welcomes President Trump’s continued opposition to Nippon Steel’s acquisition of U.S. Steel, a deal with serious long-term implications for U.S. economic and national security.”
Både Trump, Biden och Harris har varit emot uppköpet.
"The surprise development allowed the steelmakers to reset the clock, potentially keeping the controversial deal alive. But Trump, then the Republican presidential nominee, as well as President Joe Biden and Harris, had all voiced their opposition."
