If new tariffs are put in place, the company could consider building more vehicles in Alabama, where it jointly operates a plant with Toyota, or importing them from Japan. Me thinks y’all’ worry about what people in the world think about America. Thankfully that does not faze him. When you slip out of a board meeting for 20 minutes to discuss strategy with competitors who await you in the room, do you concern yourself with their personal impressions about what you are about, how you bluster, why you say things you say? Whether they like you or not?
Or are you only interested in making a deal that is Best For Your Company…… In our society that is, not a faerie company where we want EVERYONE to be happy?
The mineral and oil in Greenland is very attractive. Maybe the most oil in the world. There are only 57K thousand people there, Your pres is a deal maker.
So, what do you decide before re-entering the Board Room?

Olive oil prices are going to double, mate.

@AverageJoe1 saidGreenland is owned by Denmark which is a NATO ally. 😆

Lusting after their oil and trying to 'negotiate' for it is like trying to 'negotiate' with your best friend's hot wife to let you bone her in the azz.
But wait... but Trump DOES have experience along those lines! 😆
@wildgrass saidWhy ask them that? They can do whatever they want to do.

I challenge you Socialists to write such a post without referring to the government. They have not a thing to do with this business. This is where I say that y’all are so naïve.

@AverageJoe1 saidDude, tariffs are government, you socialist!

@AverageJoe1 saidEven if Japanese vehicles are built in the US (and many already are), the tariffs will bite hard. That's because much of the cost of a vehicle is bound up in the electronics and certain other components, which must be imported.

Lord, there is going to be so much wailing and crying in MAGAstan in a couple of years. I should probably buy stock in ear plug manufacturers.
@AverageJoe1 saidFor one who seems to hate government, you sure do put an awful lot of faith in the government official at the very top of the government hierarchy.

That would be the President, in case the above is too subtle for you.
@AverageJoe1 saidLMAO !!!! Tariffs on imports from Mexico will certainly influence Americans to grow more fruits and vegetables , lol . Of course all the pickers will have already have been deported back to Mexico , lol. Over one third of imports to Texas come from Canada and Mexico . I am certain that prices in Texas will drop , lol . You are brainwashed or incredibly gullible .

Oops! Consumers finally realize that Trump could worsen inflation.
Fearing high prices, some are stocking up for what could be an expensive four years.
A day late and a dollar short, Americans are realizing that President-elect Donald Trump plans to short them a few dollars. That’s right: Since the election, U.S. consumers have become more likely to say they expect prices to rise next year.
Trump based his 2024 campaign on a seductive promise: He’ll bring prices down. Alas, it is virtually impossible to reduce prices; the overall level of prices almost never falls unless an economy is really sick (as it was during the Great Depression, the last time we saw widespread deflation). The best that economists generally hope for is for growth in prices to slow and for prices themselves to more or less plateau. This is already happening for some consumer products, such as groceries.
However, none of this is intuitive to non-economists. And Trump has taken advantage.
Only after winning last month did Trump fess up, belatedly acknowledging he can’t bring prices down. “I’d like to bring them down,” he told Time magazine. “It’s hard to bring things down once they’re up. You know, it’s very hard.”
Got that? There was no plan, there is no plan, and there was never going to be any plan to reduce prices. The only thing surprising about this admission is that he said it out loud.
One thing Trump didn’t acknowledge, however, is how his economic agenda — tariffs, deportations, tax cuts and kneecapping the Federal Reserve — could worsen the problem that voters hired him to solve.
The article goes on, but here's the bottom line...
Sigh. If only voters had realized all this before Nov. 5.

Hey Skippy. I hate to bore you with details, but - Have you considered this will require far more square footage, trained workers and equipment than companies have now?
Have you also considered the costs of planning, permitting, construction, inspection, certifying, and training of workers will take a minimum of 3-4 years before this increased production can even begin?
Have you also considered American companies might just take advantage of this vehicle shortage situation by simply raising prices to pad their profit margins, rather than spending their cash to expand their facilities??
Auto manufacturers exist to generate profits, not to serve the public interest. Maybe it's time to take your head out of your little MAGA cloud and look at the manufacturing business in the real world. 😲
@mchill saidYes, more footage, more employees, more salaries, Christmas bonuses, and, oh, more dividends for stockholders and growth for the ancillary companies. Like, the car seats MADE OUT OF OIL THAT TRUMP WILL HAVE GUSHING. oh, and successful oil companies and a need for more oil employees!!! Get your brain going, and invest your money in all of this.

Your 2nd sentence re increased production…..libs don’t like production, but watch it create jobs.
3rd sentence…so they will not increase facilities to make our portfolios grow? Thaywill just spend it?
4th sentence mean spirited. There is a lot of that since Nov5. It is YOUR needs out of sand.
@Suzianne saidQuery….tell us all why you will not say the same thing about Phonograph Sonhouse.

You can do this. ANY answer will be appreciated. We’d like to know that you are with it, Them.. ( is them a proper pronoun for you?)
