You don’t know what you’re talking about; GE is a huge domestic manufacturer. Its plant in Lynn, Mass, is one of the world’s largest manufacturers of both commercial and military jet engines. In North Carolina, GE builds power plants using parts made at multiple of its US plants in New Hampshire, Michigan, Kentucky, Vermont and elsewhere. And that’s just the tip of the iceberg.

How many plants does GE have in the US? The number of GE's manufacturing plants in the US has dwindled from 191 in 2017 to 82 plants in 2020. GE has over 500 plants offshore. Aerospace is big for GE as is Health Care and all of the HC unit products are made in Asia. https://www.usatoday.com/story/tech/news/2016/01/15/ge-appliances-get-chinese-owner-us-state-mind/78848400/

How many plants does GE have in the US? Enough to be a manufacturing giant in the segments where it competes. I even listed some of the U.S. towns where it has especially large, productive facilities. That is substantially more than what you claimed, so it isn’t me that needs "help." juanmanuelfangioii ...

GE's largest segment is in the crapper as aerospace has been in the tank for 4 years. less than 20% of the manufacturing capacity of GE in in the US. Yep a juggernaut.

I simply disproved your claim about "brands like General Electric that has zero US manufacturing now." Please don't try to to make our discussion about something else.
