Will they make Toyazdas or Mazotas?

He’d be smart to put it in a state that he needs, instead of a state he has in the bag.

>> Bet it goes to a state Trump won <<

Sure, but probably not to PA, OH, MI or WI — because those states still have a lot of pro-union voters.

Therefore, the South has gotta be in the lead. Them good ole boys down here just don’t cotton to no Yankee union bosses!

Also, I think that if the vote today at Nissan’s black-majority Canton MS plant goes in favor of the UAW, it’s extremely unlikely that the new plant will be located in a area of the South with a large percentage of black people. So Kentucky, east Tennessee, northwestern Arkansas, West Virginia and similar spots with primarily white demographics look to me like prime candidates.

But Trump this and Trump that. Trump can’t do that. And that’s not the way Reagan would have done it in the Reagan administration. I’ve got a radio show and a book. I don’t agree with Trump on trade. I believe in free trade eventhough free trade has never exitsted in the world and it is one sided free trade. Did I tell you I don’t agree with Trump on trade? /s

Mazdota or Toyoda.
Seems like collusion, are the Russians involved?
I heard that Trump had Russian dressing on his salad from Wendy’s. But Wendy’s doesn’t serve Russian dressing! See, right there, conspiracy!

I have a Georgetown Camry that has been fantastic.

140,000 miles in 6 years and NOTHING has gone wrong.

So much for the “American workers can’t build quality” crap.

It just took the right management attitude to make it happen.

Who would believe that Alabama’s number one export is automobles and automobile parts?

Toyota already makes electrics. Maybe Mazda wants to offer one but doesn’t want to invest a lot of money in the future of electric cars?

It's high time we started talking about "wind-up" cars.

Nah. It will go to a solid-blue, high-illegal alien, high-welfare (but I repeat myself), mandatory-union, high-taxes, carbon-emission-controlling, carbon-exchange, smog-regulated, cancer-regulated, single-payer-healthcare state ..... right? /s

Yeah. I can estimate the chances of it being in California, Chicago area, Michigan, New York, New Jersey, Massachusetts, CT

But, Obama said those jibs were gone, never to return. These will mostly be FT jobs people can make a living on not Obama’s PT burger flipper jobs.

The America Hating, Mooselimb, Imposter Obama said this but yet he was importing around 2.3 Million H1B visa holders who happen to be Amish,

The Imposter Obama did a good job of trying to destroy the fruited plain's economy and government. We are so sure of that now!

I can not say it enough but "Thank God that we can say President Trump with pride."

I bought an Ambassador and a Matador NEW. I thought both were great cars, my main reason for switching to American Motors in those days was that at six four I could not find cars from Ford or GM that were comfortable to me. AM cars had more legroom, more headroom, higher seat positions, superior paint and body work and were AT LEAST as reliable as the others. In fact the only drawback I can see for my ‘68 Ambassador compared to current models of cars would be gasoline mileage. Other than that I would rather have a new ‘68 Ambassador than anything currently offered by BMW, at least it would not have all the overengineered crap that causes enough problems to make a sane driver go mad.

Exactly! They soon forgot about BMW and Hyundai in AL, and Kia in GA...
