He said too much of the automobile industry is focused on making money off of gas engines,

Fool. Car makers are in business to make money and they don't care what the fuel is.

Imagine you are a cop, fireman or EMT dispatched to a Thorium-powered car crash.

The result of liberal public school education:

A small sample of it packs 20 million times more energy than a similarly-sized sample of coal

The future of nuclear power is LENR.

Thorium has one advantage: it's as common as lead. In fact, companies who mine rare Earth minerals run into a HUGE problem of what do to with all the thorium-232 they find first before finding the rare Earth minerals.

When Alvin Weinberg at Oak Ridge National Laboratory showed you could build a nuclear reactor using thorium-232 dissolved in molten sodium fluoride salts as fuel, that could have resulted in a very safe form of nuclear power that could power US energy needs for thousands of years. The only reason why it wasn't developed further was because it couldn't make plutonium-239 for nuclear weapons.

Turbine engines: great for sustained power, piss poor for variable demand usage like automobiles.

Use thorium to power electrical generators for homes and industry. But leave the auto industry to the internal combustion engine. In one form or another ...

Turbine cars do not work too well. Chrysler had one for a while, They run along fine but the turbine does not like to slow down.
