Everything Dump touches dies. Sorry, car industry.
I’d be fine with a country that cares about regulations/safety building our vehicles, instead of us, who try to avoid and undermine them at every opportunity.
Trump’s tariffs aren’t really intended to rebuild domestic manufacturing; they’re just another grift.
In Trump’s defense… he sucks at math.
Be like Tesla and just glue plastic parts together. Problem solved.
Big tobacco is enjoying a sales increase from supply chain and manufacturing employees.
This is intentional. Trump is not serious about bringing manufacturing home, he’s trying to instead create chaos and crash the economy just enough to seize additional powers.
Trump also gutted EV manufacturing domestically because “electric cars woke hurr durr.”
China was already leaps and bounds ahead of the US in the EV market, and his big dogshit bill basically kills any chance of that changing.
The whole world will transition to electric cars and no one will want to buy tank sized cars with 10 MPG.
Ahh yes…the art of the steal!
Either he doesn’t know how anything works, or he just wants the world to burn.
It’s extortion. Plain and simple. It’s not about America first, it’s make/pay chump money and you’ll be allowed to continue doing business as usual.
Humpty Trumpty is about to have a great fall again with egg on his face once more with all his scrambled lies…what a disgrace, disaster, and complete loser…everyone has had enough, this guy needs to go
This is going to end with a democrat needing to bail out the auto industry again isn’t it?
It’s Conservative “logic”.
It’s almost like US trade policy is being run by someone with no understanding of economics; maybe even by the dumbest goddam student in the history of the Wharton business school.
Now we get to see, in real time, how the fuck Donald Trump managed to bankrupt casinos and tank major businesses. Casinos which are basically designed to print money. He’s filed for corporate bankruptcy at least six times, costing investors billions.
Trump didn’t end up in personal bankruptcy in the ’90s not because he hadn’t completely crashed and burned, but because the fat old banks didn’t want to lose their invite to the Epstein/Trump party circuit. He was broke, out of options, and they bailed him out anyway.
Only about 30% of his ventures (2000-2015) were actually successful, and most of those were in real estate, which is about as close to idiot-proof as business gets when the market’s booming.
Whenever you’re wondering why Trump does things that seem to hurt America, ask yourself “how does this effect Russia” and it begins to make sense.
We often think of Trump as insane, a chronic liar, demented, racist and fascist. We forget to add that he’s stupid too. I can’t recall another person who embodies so many negative traits. Trump cannot be caused solely by genes. That would turn Darwin’s theory of survival of the fittest on its head. It just couldn’t be possible to transmit so many bad genes into one person. His parents must have been flaming assholes. Each must have brought their separate set of obnoxious genes into the soup and then cooked that mess into perhaps the worst person in history.
I mean if people thought putting people in charge who don’t even understand what the word economy means was going to work out for anyone then they are in for a big surprise.
¡ThE mAsTeR nEgOtIaToR!
It was known things like this would happen well before he started imposing tariffs. There’s tons of economic research and examples to choose from. None of it is flattering to our strategy
Let me fix that…
Build in EU/Japan and ~~you’ll~~ U.S. citizens only have to pay a 15% tariff.
Its called “letting your country be run into the ground by an idiot.”
This is what happens when you have morons make policy. No surprise.
back in the day, when all that was on the roads of america were vw bugs and big ol’ heavy sedans, that was pretty much our only choice. We didnt want to drive those gas guzzling, difficult to maneuver UGLY american built behemoths so we bought smaller cars from overseas, mainly the german VWs and japanese cars and some french cars.. It Was A Choice because we also thought that those foreign cars were designed better and ran more efficiently..
Not buying american cars has not been about the skill of the autoworkers.. it has always been about the companies’ Refusal to make more gas efficient vehicles.. less wasteful.. and smaller..
