How on earth did you get that from the original posters comment?

“Win for America” is gross nationalism. Zero sum thinking with combative implications.
It's a win for American industry, same as a politician would say when a new factory opens or something. I don't know a less offensive way to put it.

He didn't remotely say the combative stuff I would say, that it is partially a zero-sum game where we should stay ahead of the curve.
