So instead Toyota builds the plant in Mexico?

Ford isn’t moving to Mexico. There are a whopping 4 Ford plants in Mexico vs 27 in the USA. The threat to move plants out of the USA comes up every time union contracts are negotiated. Its simply not terribly cost effective to move auto manufacturing very far from where they’re sold.

Trump is on the union side of the negotiating table and threats to punish business into compliance is a far left game.

There are 3 Ford plants in Canada, does he want to punish them too or would that irritate the CAW?

Then they’ll PAY. It’s like the old Fram filter commercial. “Pay me now, or pay me later.”

The free ride for these corner cutting outfits should have been over long ago. I pray that it soon will be.....and my wife and I both drive Fords.
