I'd say it's less the nature of Foxconn and more the vision Republicans (including Trump) have. When they talk about bringing jobs back, they envision returning to the days when you could work a US factory job until you retired and pay for your home, car and 2.2 children. That is, an era that's unlikely to come back.
Of course, returning to that era would involve raising wages to comparable levels and increasing taxes for the rich, but Republicans backing this nostalgic factory work won't tell you that.
No, they actually long for the days where people were paid shit and worked long, hard hours for little money.
