LUTNICK: TARIFF WILL APPLY TO FOREIGN CAR MAKERS BUILDING CARS IN U.S.

@jon-nyc

Surely an error. That makes zero sense.

[jon-nyc]

It might be. While the guy who posted it is a markets guy who usually gets things right I’ve seen this reported nowhere else.

He could well have meant ‘tariff relief’ instead of tariffs. Meaning for those making 85% of a car’s content here.

[Renauda]

Should hope so.

This facility was under construction years ago and Trump had absolutely nothing to do with it.

Does he mention all the Taiwanese on work visas at the facility?

Yes, this all started in 2013. I guess we should thank President Obama. LOL

I honestly am trying not to be this way, but at this point I have absolute (true absolute) zero trust in anything the administration says. To me, that is scary. If there is a major event (attack, meteor, etc) how can I trust a single thing said? Contrast that to January 2020 during the state of the union where I not only had normal trust in what Trump said, but was starting to like the results. (Things changed during COVID and the election denial, of course)
