Why Didn't Obama Keep His Promise to Buy A Chevy Volt?

[easyt65]

Six Years Ago Obama Promised to Buy a Chevy Volt. Now It Is Dead

"I got to get inside a brand-new Chevy Volt fresh off the line,” Obama announced to a cheering crowd of United Auto Workers activists. “Even though Secret Service wouldn’t let me drive it. But I liked sitting in it. It was nice. I’ll bet it drives real good. And five years from now when I’m not president anymore, I’ll buy one and drive it myself.”


"The failure of both the Volt and the Cruze is instructive. The Volt was a very high-priced car that was heavily subsidized by government policies, both federal and state, favoring electric vehicles. Many thought its high-price tag doomed it, especially since the gas-powered Cruze was a very similar car at a lower price point. But neither achieved the expected sales. These were cars Americans did not want.

Obama, who once described the manufacture of these cars as “jobs of the future,” could not be reached for comment."

Bwuhahahaha.....

Trump’s massive tax cuts to corporations led to GM laying off 14,000. But their stock went up

Trickle down, baby!

Now GM claims it will shift towards electric vehicles, using what it learned from the Volt for future geberations of electric cars. Obama can always biy one of those.

Dumb POS probably couldn't figure out how to plug the charging cable into the wall socket, anyway.

So are you trying to blame President Trump for Obama LYING / FAILING TO KEEP HIS PROMISE?

 

[boedicca]

Why? Because Obabble was just spinning the narrative to justify both his bail out of GM and his Porkulus spending on "green energy". He has no intention of living in the drab, poor quality ways he wishes to push on "the people".

I hope the buyers aren't counting on another trillion dollar payout from the
American taxpayer.

No. Are you retarded?

 

[Pilot1]

Why would he? The Media didn't hold him accountable when he WAS President, why would he care about being called out on yet another lie after he was President? Also, he wouldn't be seen dead in anything but a very high end luxury vehicle as he hob nobs with his "friend" Richard Branson, and the like.

LOL! Trump bailing farmer’s out after intentionally collapsing their industry cost us taxpayers more. With the auto’s, at least we recouped most of it. The retarded farmers get their bailout as a gift (along with their massive socialist subsidies)

 

[easyt65]

No. Are you retarded?

Nope...I was just wondering if YOU were.

Don’t believe you

The US taxpayer who paid the bill lost a TON of money on Obama's Nationalization of GM. The govt reportedly sold MOST of the remaining stocks they stole/owned from the deal at a LOSS. GM even sold part of its American company to foreign car makers.

If you count a LOSS 'recouping most of it' I guess you are right.

We lost less than the $12 billion Trump gifted to our piss guzzling farmers

When American farmers stop farming liberals will be first to starve to death as they have no idea where food comes from, let alone how to grow/raise their own.

So what's the downside to tariffs?
