"Money is pouring in," Trump said at the event. "This investment is a clear demonstration that tariffs very strongly work."

Moreover, last month, Eli Lilly and Co., a rival of J&J, announced it intends to build four new factories in the U.S. and bring 10,000 construction jobs along with 3,000 jobs for engineers, scientists, operations personnel, and lab technicians.
