Ironically, Ford may have to cut production of some models, potentially reducing U.S. jobs, as a result of China's tit-for-tat tariffs.

Up to 24,000 good jobs going away. Thanks, Donny! MAGA!
Aside from the title, I don't see much in that article that wouldn't be happening if the tariffs weren't in place. The possibly not selling as many Mustangs in China is just speculation. Have to wait and see how that plays out. Most of the Chinese that could afford to buy a new Mustang before the tariffs will still have no problem affording one now.
