Even American made cars will be more expensive. Tariffs will make imported cars more expensive. Do you think American manufacturers will not use it as an excuse to increase their prices?

Personally I always have. But I still think these tariffs are idiotic.

Is it wrong for governments to try to change consumer behavior or do you believe in the invisible hand of the free market ?

By intentionally limiting our affordable options, not increasing local options, alienating our allies? Yes, that is very wrong.

Our "allies" that send more money to Russia than we send to Ukraine? Those allies?

"But American" doesn't matter as much if most of the parts or materials are imported.

Buckle up, because everything is about to get more expensive.

Trump is living in the 80s in his head and thinks the US still manufactures all these parts and raw materials.

Tell me which “American” cars do not have a significant percentage of their components made overseas and this subject to tariffs? I’d be interested to know.

Democrats have already made cars more expensive with their fixation on global warming. They have gas guzzler penalties, high mileage rules. Tesla makes money on every sale of Audi, BMW, Mercedes by selling mileage credits.

60% of their replacement parts, at least, are sourced from outside the country. I assume many of their original parts are too.

Yes. I wish this article distinguished between Canadian and US-made parts, since we have put tariffs on Canadian goods, too. but it gives an idea:

Right, because it’s that easy.

Probably. It happened during COVID with those supply chain disruptions. Trump just caused more disruption. It will be COVID redux, at the very least.
