Trump says “he couldn’t care less” if auto companies have to raise prices on vehicles

[kyzr]

Not sure if that is what people voted for.
On Sunday, a CBS News poll found that 52% of Americans disapprove of how Trump is handling the economy. About 55% of the poll’s respondents said Trump’s focus on tariffs was “too much”.
That's an ominous figure. Its not so much that he hasn't got a plan. He has got a plan but its a shit plan. It comes to something when Rand Paul is the adult in the room.

The UAW loves the new tariffs on IMPORTED cars, not domestic cars.
Biden and democrats were ending gas powered cars by 2035.
That meant all cars would be powered by Chinese batteries.
Trump just saved the US auto industry from unfair competition.
This is exactly what we voted for.

 

[Lesh]

He actually wants the exact opposite.
Leftists are simply the dumbest ***** imaginable

Then why did he say what he said?

Oh wait. You don’t actually care

Thats an ominous figure. Its not so muh that he hasnt got a plan. He has got a plan but its a shit plan. It comes to someting when Rand Paul is the adult in the room.

If a nation doesn't make things it is dependent on their enemies for their survival.

Of course, what he said was...

"I hope they raise their prices, because if they do, people are gonna buy American-made cars," Trump said.

Fine with me. Will be nice to pay less for made in USA. I usually pay more for made in USA, because I want quality, and I want to employ my neighbors. MAGA.

The American manufacturers will raise their prices too because they can....

You’re just too dumb to understand that.

 

[candycorn]

And his followers just shrug

WTF

As long as a black woman wasn’t elected...they will rejoice in the misery their orange god is delivering. Curious group.

Since you reply with no meme, the right can't meme

I don't meme.

Broad brush. But then, what's new about that?

Dead horse.

Buy products made in America.

 

[Manonthestreet]

Come on man we gotta save the planet.....

 

[ColonelAngus]

The whole point is for foreign cars to cost more so American consumers will buy American.

Why do foreign nations put tariffs on American products?

 

[22lcidw]

It's not just that he doesn't care. He doesn't HAVE to care because he's a billionaire, so nothing that he or Musk or anyone else inflicts upon the rest of the country NEGATIVELY IMPACTS him.

That's why it makes no sense at all to put someone who cannot and will not in ANY respects be held accountable for the things they do, including those things that violate the rights of others - either civilly or criminally, back into the most powerful office in the U.S. if not the world.

The fact that half of our country doesn't understand this simple concept is beyond sad.

The bastion of Progressives spewing they are for the common man said not a word on the inflation. The first two years of Joe voted all of that legislation in pure lockstep.

 

[Orangecat]

Well obviously this isn’t surprising. Anyone should have figured Trump was full of shit when he talked about the pain of inflation on American consumers. I mean out of desperation they put a pile of groceries on a table just to pander.

But alas, Trump obviously never cared about the poor or middle class. Now that he is president, what difference does it make to keep up the charade?

It will raise the price of all cars you moron.

What cars that are assembled here are assembled from parts made overseas...with tariffs on those parts

Do you not realize that??

It will incentivize domestic parts manufacturing.
Do you not realize that?

 

[Billiejeens]

Then why did he say what he said?

Oh wait. You don’t actually care

Because he understands the purpose of tariffs.

Neither Biden nor the democrats have the authority to end gas powered cars. WTF is wrong with you?

What's all the excitement about? Trump is doing exactly what he said would do. He even warned about initial price hikes.

Too bad dimocrap scum don't get their news from Adults, instead relying on the Muppets of the world for their 'news'.

dimocrap scum got their news from MTV for over a generation (oh, yes. they did). Now that those idiots have closed down their 'news' division (2023) dimocrap scum are scurrying like the rat turds they are to find another source of confirmation bias to cater to their pre-pubescent brains. Even when they're 40 years-old, they still have pre-pubescent brains.

But -- What's all the surprise?? He's doing exactly what he said he would do.

You’re not supposed to believe anything, moron. Poor people aren’t buying new cars. Think.

 

[sartre play]

Huh?

Think many have that thought ONLY because he said he would fix many things on day one.
Something that is just words, political words. And has little to do with the reality's.
