So, we’re gonna fuck up the auto industry on the american continent while china’s auto industry gets stronger and stronger because as it sits now, they don’t need us at all. We’d be a fairly tiny addition to their market. And europe can focus on the chinese market and forget us, as again, we are a drop in the bucket…

The US is the biggest bully since the pre 1940's British Empire. We are not ripped off or exploited by anyone. When our military or dollar-policy says “Jump”, other countries ask “How high?”. This current Administration has such a victim-mentality, or more accurately, exploits the massive desire of the populace to…
Also worth noting that nothing in that quote talks about things getting better. Nothing in any quote talks about how any of these decisions will actually improve anything. Not even a concept of how things can get better anymore.
“Trump is billing the move as a means of clamping down on crime and immigration from the three nations”
“We may have short term some little pain, and people understand that. But long term, the United States has been ripped off by virtually every country in the world,” he said.
It would also be fun to watch Cananda turn the power off for the entire northeast of the country!
This is a trade war.
Sure Canada couldn’t export other places easily but the we wouldn’t have any oil to process at our refineries which would shut them down. It’s not easy to convert a refinery to another type of oil either.
Considering the way Trump has been shooting his mouth off regarding Canada, if I were in the Canadian government stopping the oil flow would be the first consideration the day after the 25% tariff was enacted. Trump’s administration may ignore it, but I can guarantee all those gun-toting ‘Muricans with their…
And that’s IF Canada still sends its energy. They could just stop oil exports and the only place that has the type of oil we refine is Venezuela.
Fun Fact: Tariffs cause non-impacted products to raise their price because they can raise them and still be cheaper.
We finally get an M3 wagon in the US and it’s the ugliest M3 ever.

DEI hire in Reagan ATC for sure. Or maybe the helicopter pilot’s second cousin is trans. Or maybe this is why we should re-designate them Sikorsky “White-Hawks.”
But seriously, this is horrible. My heart is with all the victims and their families. Accidents happen and that doesn’t make it okay, but the cynic in me is…
The INCONVENIENCE of having to wait hours to recharge during road trips is currently a huge deterrent to people buying battery-only powered vehicles. When fast charging times approach gas pumping times, they fact that electric power costs half as much per mile as gas should convince most people to switch to the more…
Oh Rivian....you naive little child. There’s a boatload of stuff this Admin could pull to make your claim look foolish. None of these are good policy, but when the whole goal of this Admin is F#ck You, I Said So....none of that matters:
The B’s in BB-8 stand for “Big Ball.” The 8 is a measurement. I’ll leave it to you to figure out exactly what is being measured, and what the units of said measurement actually are.
I literally picked up a Polestar 2 in 2021 explicitly because I couldn’t stand Elon Musk and I wanted an EV. Ever since, he’s only further dug Tesla’s grave.
Polestar is def on my list when we switch to full EV, I hope they stick around!
Hold on, won’t the government of Canada just cover the cost of the price increases for their consumers? That’s how I was told this works!!!
