Trump: Now Ford can build Focus in U.S.; Ford: That makes no sense

Hey, Trumpkins! Donny's a moron. Ford says so.

Where the heck are the vocal Trumpkins? Finally came to their senses?

Trump tariffs blamed for slowdown, less hiring at new Volvo plant in South Carolina

Volvo's North American CEO warned earlier this month that the tariffs could force the company to rethink plans to ramp up production and hire new workers at the South Carolina plant.

Volvo's global CEO, Håkan Samuelsson, told reporters at the Los Angeles Auto Show on Thursday that Volvo is slowing the pace at which production is being ramped up in Charleston.

The change will also slow down hiring.

MAGA!

Ford is canceling plans to build a new plant in Mexico. It will invest $700 million in Michigan instead, creating 700 new U.S. jobs.

...but Finn doesn't think any of this is "sustainable".
Seeing a twisting road ahead, Ford cuts 7K white-collar jobs

Justin Amash is his Congressman too. He must be flipping out that a fellow Republican had the nerve to criticize his Dear Leader.

Looks like he pays the highest auto insurance premiums in the country, too, thanks to the Repubes in power. Poor, dumb bastard!

I'm really not sure what point you're trying to make with this post. The jobs that are being cut are those related to legacy vehicle tech. The funds freed up by staffing reductions will be invested in the R&D and development of EV's and related tech.

So, what are you suggesting by linking to this story?
