trump says he could "care less" if his tariffs raise car prices

For “FOREIGN” cars.

/----/ The Trump haters purposely ignore that fact. They lump all cars, regardless of where they are made, as being subject to tariffs.
That is why it's impossible to have a rational discussion with them.

This coming from the side that didn’t care when Harris-Biden took overall inflation to 21 percent over their four years.

But all a sudden they are horrified by it.

trump is a slug. He and his MAGA supporters will pay for their ignorance. This is what you get when you let billionaires run the country. I will hold off buying a new vehicle until someone with a brain is in the WH. Now we have a Moron, a Hillbilly, and a NAZI.

You? Buying a new car? Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha
SNAP wouldn't even get you a kiddie car jimboliar.
Plus nobody buys new, they buy used......

How did they control domestic inflation impact in response to Global inflation? Case in point: Domestic Energy Policy. In the face of Global Inflation, why and how is increasing regulations and restrictions on domestic energy companies going to result in lower costs to the domestic energy company, the US companies that depend on oil in their costs-of-goods, and the US consumers?

I know my power bill went from $80 a month to $150 a month under Biden. Hopefully it will start to go down now.

There is exemption from car parts coming in from Canada and Mexico as imports under the USMCA agreement are exempt. Cars assembled in America will only be affected by imported parts coming from other foreign countries.

No they're not. All major components of Honda vehicles are sourced overseas. They are only assembled here. The tariffs will effect far more than Honda, you idiot. Even Tesla will be effected.

I was working in Columbus back when Honda began building a manufacturing in Marysville, Ohio way back during the Carter presidency. They've added more since.
