It's a deliberate, forceful reassertion of an image of American industrialism that we have inherited from the 20th century. — Judy Woodruff

I think, as a historian, what strikes one the most about this [Donald'd Trump] program is just simply its nationalism, with his commitment to the redevelopment of American manufacturing and industrial jobs, providing jobs for the constituency that was so important in electing him. — Judy Woodruff

By that time, the British conceded that machinery innovation had shifted to America. — Charles R. Morris
