Car Saleman in Chief

There has been no such mandate and I've never supported that, fool.

/——/ The Biden administration's electric vehicle (EV) mandate aimed to significantly increase the adoption of electric vehicles, targeting that 50% of all new vehicle sales in the U.S. would be electric by 2030. This initiative included setting stricter pollution standards for automakers, encouraging a shift away from gas-powered vehicles, although it faced potential challenges from the incoming Trump administration

Amazing what a couple of hundred million dollars can buy.

American president is now spending his time trying to sell cars for his very rich "friend".

And tommrow he will finally end EV subsidies he was calling waste of money on for years on advisory of senior DOGE leader

Did you say anything when Joe Biden was driving Ford electric trucks around for camera crews?



Or when he gave speeches at Ford facilities with their cars featured in the background?



Or when he gave Ford 9.2 billion dollars?

Unless America returns its middle class and balances your budget, the U.S currency and Americas solvency will not be long for this world. Wake up, the world.is playing you, including your allies who tax, tariff and place artifical barriers and restrictions to harm your economy.

When the admin engages in unethical/illegal acts.........right out in the open........it's sometimes easy to not notice they are in fact corrupt acts. trumpery has made us somewhat numb to it because trump violates the rules so often.

Governmental appointees, even SGE's like Musk, don't get chosen for positions of power if they, oh I don't know, own a car company. Or own companies getting billions of dollars of government contracts. It's too big of a conflict of interest. But in the error of the age of trump, anything goes. Like the prez promoting Musk's car company at the WH.

Under ordinary circumstances this would immediately be condemned by both parties in Congress and the OGE. But trump has installed a crony to lead the OGE so...........

"OGE has been notified that the President is removing David Huitema as the director of OGE," the office said in a notice on its website. "OGE is reverting to an Acting Director."

Huitema was appointed to a five-year term by former President Biden. He was confirmed by the Senate in November 2024 and sworn in on December 16, 2024. The office's website initially listed Shelley Finlayson as its acting director. Finlayson has been at the agency since 2006, serving most recently as chief of staff. But Mr. Trump signed a document Monday evening tapping Doug Collins, a Republican former member of Congress and current Department of Veterans Affairs secretary, to be the acting director of OGE.

The move to oust Huitema comes two weeks after Mr. Trump fired at least 17 inspectors general from their roles as watchdogs without explanation, and as Mr. Trump and Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency task force have upended multiple government agencies.

Trump ousts director of Office of Government Ethics

President Trump removed the director of the Office of Government Ethics, the independent agency responsible for overseeing ethics rules for the executive branch.

that's the reason I couldn't stand Clinton.

I bought a car from a guy like him once.

total lemon

I bought a 30,000 square foot apartment from an orange game show host.

It turned out to be only 11,000 square feet!

I also invested in his airline, his steaks, his vodka, his casinos, and his university...

Biden has consistently liked cars, consistenly supported renewables and EVs. There was not just some one company or person in the industry that he was catering to.

He was also very pro-union, which is why he had a problem with Tesla's union busting stance and didn't invite them to administration's EV events. I think that was a mistake given Tesla's prominent role and market share, but at least it's clear where Biden was coming from.


Thats very different from Trump getting pretty much bought out by Musk, completely turning around his rhetoric about EVs, putting him in power of what gov spends on and now doing a presser at the White House to sell Tesla cars.
