Personally I think this will be one of the biggest disappointments to those people who have been hurt by downsizing and loss of jobs to foreign entities.
I DO see (actually BOTH candidates proposed this) a very good opportunity for good paying jobs in rebuilding our infrastructure. It will likely be a huge bill for it. My question here is IF we are tremendously increasing spending on infrastructure (which I DO support) and at the same time cutting business taxes and personal taxes, how can we NOT avoid greatly increasing the deficit ?
So back to the original questions for the supporters of Trump. What jobs do you think he will be able to bring back ??

The coal mining jobs will return to PA.
Textile mills to New England,
Steel mills to Youngstown.
Vinyl records might even come back.
Definitely.
Just gotta take on China,
And get rid of 'regulations'.
Gonna be a huge Trumpy changey thing.
Believe me,,,,

Blackjack dealers, table game attendants, slot machine attendants, waiters & waitresses, cashiers, concierge personnel, housekeeping staff & groundskeepers (most of these will be undocumented workers to save money . . . Americans don't want these jobs anyhow). The economic boom and massive job creation will be limited to rebuilding the Atlantic City strip and certain really, really classy golf resorts in Florida.

Lot of funny answers but I think that what we will see is an extension of the Obama era infrastructure programs.
More road repairs. More bridge repairs. Grants to cites and states to upgrade airports. Stuff like that. That sort of thing does create jobs although they do tend to be temporary.

Yep, decent money for awhile but not the long term work that most are looking for. Nevertheless it WILL be good for people who get the jobs AND for the US.

Infrastructure, I hope. Yes, it does create thousands of temporary jobs, but the we are desperate to have the work done across the country. Who knows, some of those temporary jobs may lead to longer employment for some. I just wish it would get started.

Notice anything?
Not one response from the trumpers.
They seem more interested in dancing on Hillary's bones than they are with the future.
It's not a serious movement

Maybe we need to make it easier for them,
On a campaign stop in Pennsylvania Trump promised he would "put the miners back to work".
Are there lots of unemployed coal miners in Pennsylvania, and do you see them going back to mining?
