Trump Tariffs Saving Detroit

Where would Michigan be if Trump hadn’t imposed tariffs on Chinese autos?

Look no further than what’s happening in Germany, where Volkswagen may have to close factories for the first time in its 87-year history. The New York Times reports: “Despite plans by the European Union to introduce tariffs on imports of electric cars from China, those competitors are starting to expand into Europe.” https://www.nytimes.com/2024/09/02/business/volkswagen-germany-plant-closures.html

If you’re an American who works in the auto industry, you should be very happy that Trump was elected in 2016. Just ask the workers in Germany what it’s like to face imports from China.
