I'm wondering how this protectionist trend will impact overseas hires. Will US companies continue to hire talent remotely outside of their borders? Will they be incentivized to only hire in the US?

More businesses will be incentivised to locate in the US, to avoid tariffs, but they'll still be incentivised to hire from outside the US due to cheaper labour (there's no tariff on wages).
