I'm sure the market for this product will be so huge, that it can compensate for all the other losses in the U.S. manufacturing sector.
You misspelled “gains in the U.S. manufacturing sector”

The U.S. manufacturing sector is highly concentrated in capital and intermediary goods, which have substantial value-add but aren’t readily visible to the consumer nor do they comport with traditional notions of manufacturing (“omg steel”) and are rarely called manufacturers - instead they are aerospace, pharmaceutical, chemical, machinery, semiconductor, etc firms.

Highly innovative U.S. pharmaceutical manufacturer, Gilead Sciences, out with yet another first in class blockbuster; this time a HIV prophylactic (a manufactured vaccine) to prevent vertical transmission. The U.S. manufacturing sector remains on the technological frontier with exclusive, innovative products that are simply unavailable at any price in other economies, showing the sustainable value add of the U.S. economy, both now and for decades to come
Most people will not be able to afford it to use it twice a year on going. They can only make money in the US for 10 years charging high prices to US residents then once it becomes generic and others will have access and china/india will make it and sell it for cheap. Just like HCV treatment therapy, most can't afford it so they just wait for generic to come out eventually.

Could be worth a congratulations had it not come with unnecessary qualifiers such as "highly innovative," "Blockbuster" or the meaningless and exaggerated extrapolation at the end as this has no consequence on the US economy now or in the future. It's just one more overpriced drug unfortunately targetted at the low-level miscreants of society who get HIV in the first place.

I’ll support her if she could actually pull it off but how do you do that while simultaneously lowering rates and pissing off the Chinese?

The same way current inflation is <2% even with expectations of rate cuts and bad U.S.-China relations. China simply isn’t important in U.S. economic life, and the U.S. has substantial areas of productivity growth that will only grow (the labor market churn is ending and people easing into their new jobs, a substantial amount of capital deepening, the AI bonanza, etc) that will simultaneously have disinflationary pressure and positive growth effects

Full breakout of major economic policies / objectives:

GROCERIES AND FOOD
  • First-ever federal ban on corporate price gouging on food and groceries
  • Set clear rules so that corporations can't unfairly exploit consumers with pricing to run up excessive corporate profits
  • Empower the FTC and state attorney generals to investigate corporations for violating the rules
  • Aggressively regulate mergers and proposed consolidation among food producers and grocers
HEALTHCARE
  • Expand the $35 insulin cap for Medicare to all Americans, not just the elderly ones
  • Cap all Americans annual out of pocket prescription drug spending at $2,000/year
  • Ramp up Medicare negotiations with drug companies over their most expensive drugs
  • Regulate pharmaceutical companies that block competitive and abusive practices by middlemen
  • Cancel medical debt for millions of Americans
TAX CUTS
  • Extend Inflation Reduction Act subsidies and lower premiums for ACA
  • Expand Earned Income Tax Credit by up to $1,500
  • Restore the $3,000 per child tax credit from the Inflation Reduction Act
  • Expand the Child Tax Credit so that even the poorest of families receive it (currently families need to make a high enough annual income to receive it)
  • Increase the Child Tax Credit to $6,000 per child for first year newborns
HOUSING
  • $25,000 down payment assistance for first time homebuyers who have paid rent on time for at least two years
  • Tax credit incentives for home builders who build starter homes sold to first time homebuyers
  • Build 3 million homes
  • $40B to local state governments for building housing
  • Pass the Stop Predatory Investing Act, legislation that would prohibit investors who acquire 50 or more new single-family rental homes from deducting interest or depreciation on the properties.
  • Pass the Preventing the Algorithmic Facilitation of Rental Housing Cartels Act, legislation that cracks down on companies that allow landlords to collude to set high housing prices via software and price-setting algorithms.

I think you've scared him into blocking/ignoring you.
