I’m not certain that’s a good idea. Great for the consumer but international trade policy is complex. Tariffs have a purpose and it’s not the way that the fat king wants to use them - but they still have a purpose.*

Here’s something a Dem president could do about affordability in January 2029; rescind ALL tariffs on Chinese EVs - By mgaelster September 22, 2026 at 10:18:57 AM

  - Protectionism stinks. Bad for everyone. The thing Dems will have to tackle if they win in 2028 - By mgaelster September 22, 2026 at 12:05:29 PM

  - Biden had it right with NEVI. Lots of haters in hindsight and he could have executed better, but we would still be farther ahead in infrastructure growth with Biden vs Trump.* - By Lodz September 22, 2026 at 12:05:53 PM
- I saw a number of Chinese EV SUV's while I was in Barbados. They are better and less expensive that anything the big 3 produce. I have a feeling that there tariffs have insulated our manufacturers from needing to innovate. Opening the market may crush them. * - By Falco September 22, 2026 at 10:21:48 AM
  - It's complicated. As an auto industry employee, I would say this is a "be careful what you wish for situation". (m) - By jfitz September 22, 2026 at 10:37:34 AM
    - Turning to Xi's China to solve our problems is as good an idea as it sounds.* - By ftb September 22, 2026 at 10:42:30 AM
  - 100%. US manufacturers have all but abandoned EVs.* - By MFlyer September 22, 2026 at 10:27:31 AM
  - That sounds like a reason to do it. Don’t give a small number of auto workers a windfall - By mgaelster September 22, 2026 at 10:27:30 AM
