Thankfully, President-elect Donald Trump&#8217;s win in the 2024 election has provided consistent reminders of how that should be done. On Monday, Trump hosted Japanese CEO Masayoshi Son at his Mar-a-Lago estate in Palm Beach, Florida. During this meeting, the billionaire tech investor committed to a $100 billion investment in the U.S., which is double his previous pledge from eight years ago. This new investment is expected to generate around 100,000 jobs in &#8220;artificial intelligence and related infrastructure&#8221; by 2029. Trump expressed enthusiasm about Son&#8217;s significant investment and raised expectations by suggesting it could create even more jobs than projected. In a follow-up clip, Son credited his increased confidence in the U.S. economy to Trump&#8217;s election victory. In an amusing moment, Trump jokingly asked Son if he could increase his investment to $200 billion instead of $100 billion, showcasing Trump&#8217;s negotiation skills and lighthearted approach as they interacted positively during their meeting\u2014an encouraging sign after years of officials focusing on other priorities over American interests<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2380642,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/these-guys-3.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[46911,5374,34402,5894,3634],"class_list":["post-2380641","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","tag-100-billion","tag-america","tag-economic-policy","tag-politics","tag-trump"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/these-guys-3.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2380641","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2380641"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2380641\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2380645,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2380641\/revisions\/2380645"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2380642"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2380641"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2380641"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2380641"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
