6. I think he might want to include the automakers in on this grand scheme of his.

The auto industry is multinational in both the manufacture and sales of their cars.
To change their manufacturing and marketing to suit one man who is going to be a short lived phenomenon is an idiotic idea.
It would require perhaps 10 years and hundreds of billions of dollars to have American cars 100% made in America. Not to mention hundreds of thousands more workers; workers we don't have and aren't going to have thanks to the President's deportation policy.
Also, the price of those cars would be too high for most people to afford to buy them.

We're rapidly approaching a 25th Amendment situation here folks. Trump is losing brain function more and more each day. The sad part is that JD Vance is Vice-President. Him taking the oath of office is a sight I never want to see.
