Trump cannot stop the transition in the high density urban counties, he rightfully should stop the EPA out of control edicts. But he is 100% right without 50% import tariffs BYD and the other low cost 200-300 mile EVs will in his words bloodbath the American industry.

It’s easy simple math for most people grade school level at that.
