He wants to "restore" manufacturing to America. It's just that everyone has to be poorer and manufacturing has to be subsidized at the expense of our incomes for manufacturing to come back.

It was already happening. There was a exodus of East Asian scientists who left during the first Trump administration after the DOJ started witchhunting scientists for connections to China. One guy even committed suicide and the DOJ admitted to making up jive on people. Cutting government funding...

Both Sanders and Warren both underperformed relative to Harris in this election in their home states for the Senate Races. It's clearly not just a desire for far-left politics that's driving people into the arms of Trump. The anti-incumbency explanation makes somewhat more sense given their age...
