I think the real takeaway of the night was Trump floating zero interest on American cars.
That might be too much, too good to be true? Like, you want to get cars to a “meh” place where the cost/benefit isn’t skewed too bad between males and models, and then win the customers with quality. It’s outright hostile to just poison the market against Japanese and German cars. I love BMW but actually Germany is really fucking gay right now, so maybe just don’t poison the market against Japanese cars. Japan is like our best friend on the planet
I’d rather one of two things.
1: a stripped down options that an average person has a chance in hell of being able to afford in cash and totally sidestep financing
2; repeal planned obsolescence, bring back cars that live for 20-30 years
But either way, just saying those magic words.. Trump wants us to actually make cars again. He should get a third term just for that
