25% Tariff Increase On Automobiles From The EU Possible

[media=https://youtu.be/qsNqPU6XhMw?si=fr20-yKvlWxeq44v]

Trump announces 25% tariff on cars, trucks from EU - ABC News https://share.google/yTsp9EDJEAr87NIKi

Does he even think about Americans and what they're already paying? Then he's a billionaire, not affecting him in any shape form or fashion or anyone he loves.

He became a multi-billionaire on backs of YS citizens, now he is screwing up the global economy.

Maybe if the US autoindustry produced the quality and price other countries can, they could compete.

That is precisely why Mercedes Benz of Germany will no longer have their GLC-class built in Germany by Germans auto workers and then shipped to the USA by boat.

The model year 2026 GLCs will be the last year Mercedes will build that model in Germany.

For the 2027 model year going forward, the Mercedes GLC-class will be built in Alabama USA by a bunch of Americans, specifically to avoid this 25% tariff increase issue you speak of.

In fact, any GLC-class Mercedes that is ordered by Canadian customers will be shipped to Canada from Alabama AND the Canadian government will be slapping a 25% US tariff on those vehicles entering Canada BECAUSE they now become an American-made automobile. German-made cars never had tariffs imposed on them when shipped directly to Canada from Germany.

Don't be surprised to hear that Mercedes has gone into Receivership.

For the love of God, why would anyone buy a Mercedes that was made in the southern USA by a bunch of Americans who have zero interest in building foreign model cars?

Trump himself doesn't actually drive a vehicle, nor has he ever.

Wouldn't that be fun to watch if he did! Happy weekend to you too!

@swirlie Yeah it would be fun. And it would be quite symbolic if he was driving a garbage truck when he did it. Bet when he hits the ground a cloud of orange makeup dust would poof up into the air. Cheers and happy weekend!

I actually saw something like that happen out in BC a while back when a bunch of us were riding Yamaha trail bikes through mountain passes. Someone in our group near the top of the trail turned left instead of right and ended up riding off a rock cliff at full throttle and taking the fast way down to the planned meeting place where we were all parked in a dried up river bed.

It ended sort of like you describe it would happen with the orange clown!
