On August 22, as reported by Fox News, US President Trump had previously expressed his strong support for state governors and local government officials to actively back the development of artificial intelligence (AI) data centers. He underscored that such initiatives would notably expand job prospects within the construction sector, stating emphatically: "If I were a mayor or governor, I would make every effort to entice major AI enterprises or data centers to establish their presence here. Not only do they generate a plethora of jobs, but they also inject significant capital and tax revenue into the local economy." Furthermore, Trump noted that, in light of the prevalent opposition from a majority of Americans towards the local construction of data centers, the AI industry must intensify its public relations endeavors to garner broader public endorsement.
