Biden makes another gaffe by falsely claiming his Catholic school teacher was drafted by the Green Bay Packers

President Joe Biden flew to battleground Wisconsin Wednesday where he ripped a planned $10 billion factory once touted by Donald Trump as a 'con' and ridiculed his predecessor for boosting it.

He ridiculed Trump in Sturtevant, Wisconsin for cheering the massive factory project in Racine and declaring it the 'eighth wonder of the world,' while announcing a new Microsoft facility on the same site.

'He and his administration promised a $10 billion investment by Foxconn build  new manufacturing complex create 13,000 new jobs. In fact, he came here with your Senator Ron Johnson literally holding a golden shovel, promising to build the eighth wonder of the world. Are you kidding me?' Biden asked, earning laughs from a crowd of supporters.

'Look what happened. They dug a hole with those golden shovels,' President Biden said in Wisconsin, where he ripped Donald Trump for boasts about a giant Foxconn manufacturing plant that didn't pan out

'Look what happened. They dug a hole with those golden shovels – and then they fell into it.'

Look, they didn't shovel other dirt – they did shovel some dirt. 100 homes were bulldozed. They wasted hundreds of millions of dollars of your state and local tax dollars to promise a project that never happened. Foxconn turned out to be just that a con.'

'Go figure,' he said. 

Trump had announced the plan with much fanfare in 2017 as part of his 'America First' agenda,' but the Taiwanese firm drastically scaled it back a few years later, citing 'market fluctuations.'

Trump leads Biden in the battleground state by half a percentage point in the latest RealClearPolitics average, in a state Trump carried in 2016 but Biden pried away from him in 2020.

In Wisconsin, as in battlegrounds Michigan and Pennsylvania, Biden is suffering from diminished youth support, concerns about maintaining support from black voters he enjoyed in 2020, and splits over Israel's war in Gaza. 

He plans to meet with volunteers as his campaign, which is boosting staff and offices, announced a new $14 million ad buy.   

Now Microsoft is promising 2,300 union construction jobs and a similar number of permanent jobs to run a data center there.

Microsoft president Brad Smith told the AP the firm had a 'steadfast commitment to under-promising and over-delivering' and talked up the Biden administration for its role. Wisconsin Rep. Bryan Steil (R) said Biden doesn't want to talk about his inflation policies.
