Trade war chaos? US vehicle prices could spike by up to $10K with Trump’s new tariffs on Canada, Mexico

So many faces for leopards.
Really getting suspicious that they’re actively trying to get people to riot at some point simply as an excuse to invoke the insurrection act (and then deputize the proud boys et al)
Truth has no meaning. When they are ready to do that they'll just say that they saw there were riots on the news and that is why you now have a live in nazi to keep an eye on your family and make sure you are not passing on any gay frog genes.
Nah, this is just ransacking and gutting the government. All the oligarchs remember how much money they made off the covid pandemic and want to recreate that. Doom spending to try and drown out the voices, panic spending because toilet paper, etc. Also there is 100% a reason trump kept talking about wanting to see the gold in Fort Knox and that is totally just a stimulus for the uhaul industry.
Same thing with the tariffs. They are hoping for small stock market crashes that let them buy low and then sell when it rebounds because the tariffs are totally coming next month, not this month.
And... that is also why there is such a big focus on Canada and Greenland. That is land that is going to be less impacted by global warming and they know it is coming (there was a spectacular article by a sex worker in Geneva on the topic. Short version: Everyone knows it is coming and that stopping it would hurt quality of life. So they are focused on making sure they are comfortable while we die).
There are already plenty of parallels between how Putin seized power and Trump. If he's following the playbook, a false flag should be coming down the pipe any day.
Yeah - it would absolutely not shock me in the slightest.
When they caught those Russians prepping for a plane bombing and discovered evidence of a likely broader plot, my immediate thought was “they are 100% planning on framing the Ukrainians for something absurd as a nonsense casus belli for Trump to use”.
hes probably getting pointers from his secret talks with putin.
They absolutely missed the best chance they'd ever get when that Zizig cult got arrested. To me, that sounds line they haven't got their plans in order yet.
Honestly leave the US as soon as you can.
Been there, tried that in 2016, it's a lot harder than you think, especially if you're older even if you're in tech.
And then what? Whatever goes down in the US will spread to the rest of the world. You won’t be able to hide from it
Nazis are popping up all across the world.
The only country i eould probably be able to emigrate to is the UK, since my mom is English. I don't forsee the UK being much better than the US in 5 years time.
Nah, if they really wanted that we'd already be in a recession. Maybe if the tariffs actually start impacting the economy to the point where there's an actual market collapse, then we might see some people hitting the streets.
In reality, the capital holders won't allow the media to rile up Americans too much until the billionaires start getting hit in the wallets. Until then we still have our bread and circuses.
They want to quietly bleed us dry so we are forced to work to survive. They don’t want a middle class, because they aren’t as easy to control as someone living paycheck to paycheck.
nothing is really stopping them from doing it anyways, its much easier to do it in red states, but magas dont riot in large numbers like Ds do.
Pretty sure they could invoke the insurrection act whenever they want. Why not? Just lie and say there are riots, who's gonna stop them?
Don't worry. teslas will have a huge government rebate program to help offset the tariff induced price hikes.
But charging them will be illegal.
The subsidy will go to Tesla stock holders, not car buyers.
I'm so glad we saved Gaza by not voting for Harris. Great job, everyone!
lmao it's been month and you're still blaming palestinians? You're such a loser
Imagine blaming people who got bombed by your country for your own electoral loss.
Now imagine doing it for 6 month.
Do you have any real life friends?
Just in time for me to need a car. Thanks, evil orange asshat.
lol
And unless you live in the like five places in the US where not having a vehicle is even possible you're screwed. I hate! Having to depend on my car for everything. I don't make enough money to have a reliable vehicle so every day it's nerve racking whenever the car makes a unfamiliar sound, or takes too long to start.
I just got back from Atlanta, Georgia, and holy shit I almost forgot how bad road infrastructure could be. 5 blocks from a grocery store and it's basically illegal to walk to it. There technically are crosswalks, but no sidewalk to get to them. The funniest part is the traffic is significantly worse than similar city populations because most of the intersections are high risk high speed crossings.
No sidewalk getting to Target across the street from our hotel when visiting family in the midwest. Death walk.
even with public transportation, in the west its already in jeopardy because we have a budget problem and our city is planning to cutback a ton of services. by summer time, because in the last few years since covid protocols was lifted they have been ramping up citations violaitons to compensate for the loss.
Well there goes my chance to buy the new Honda prelude. 😭
Economy is taking, stocks are tanking, jobs are tanking. 😭
Fml.. imma keep riding on my 07 Honda forever 😊
The smartest thing a car owner can do is keep a single car running forever.
Now that depends very heavily on the car. An 07 Honda? Mechanically you're probably right. If it's rusting, I'll have to disagree with you though. Japanese cars do have a tendency to rust more than their western counterparts (at least applies to a lot of the ones made in the 90s and 00s).
I've seen some mid-00s Audis' powertrain issues make grown men cry, metaphorically speaking.
In b4 the supporters start yelling, "Won't be a problem for me! I only drive American cars!"
Narrator: "It did become a problem for them."
"I only drive Toyota! "BUILT HERE LIVES HERE"!
Not even joking the amount of morons who drive Toyota in Texas and obsess over the fact they are made here in Texas as if that makes them an American car? Still a Japanese company my dudes
Buying a USA domestic brand that was assembled abroad and imported pays USA stock owners, not USA factory workers and local economies.
Toyota and Nissan seem to be more American these days than ford/chevy/dodge. It's quite hilarious
Well, Tesla aside, all manufacturers manufacture some percent of their USDM cars outside of the US. For GM it's over half. Even Honda, Toyota and Subaru USDM cars are more likely to be US-made than GM. Stellantis and Ford however are in 2nd and third place in Tesla so not TOO bad. Source
