China's market is so very closed to American exports there.

Every automaker has set up Chinese manufacturing, because China (completely) protects Chinese manufacturing.

So what do they do? They send manufacturing there, and SEND THE VEHICLES BACK TO AMERICA.

This is wrong.

Completely wrong. GM sucks.

(Just personal opinion, here)

Furthermore, it will probably be a cheaply made and DANGEROUS to our safety, kind of car.

Hope people don’t buy it!

It really doesn’t matter to me, personally. I was done with GM the moment they allowed Obama to screw premium bond holders out of their investment and turned the company over to a Union. They couldn’t make the car I’d want to buy from them, ever.

GM Government Motors. With the Comrade running the government, of course the government will back GM bringing China-made cars in the US.

TOTAL 2015 to-date:

Exports (US to China): 95,377.8
Imports (China to US): 401,924.9
Total (Trade Balance): -306,547.0

America vs China Trade. All figures are in millions of U.S. dollars

2015 year to date, through October.

Our trade deficit with mainland China is massive, and it continues to soar, every single year.

This year, it is poised for (yet another) record total.

It is painful, to see America, so completely sold out.

Bring back American industry.

That new car smell from China made cars will be the aroma of ‘essence of formaldehyde’.

Actually, the GM cars in China are very popular in China because they are higher quality and more comfortable than the indigenous brands.

Buicks made in Shanghai are really nice cars

More impotently they are not made by the UAW.

Just the last fact alone means I’d think about buying one. Anything that leads to the death of the UAW is a good thing

“More impotently they are not made by the UAW.”

No, they are made by Communist China.

Sorry, but that is worse.

Donald Trump cannot be elected, soon enough.

These campaign “opportunities” keep falling into Trump’s lap. I would say that “somebody upstairs” wants Trump to be president!

I lived in China for many years. The society there is basically as free as the US.

I also lived in China.

The society there, is not free. The government is communist.

They are very protective, of Chinese industry. Very much.

“I lived in China for many years. The society there is basically as free as the US.”

Tell that to the Christians in Red China who are being persecuted.

P.S. After that statement, how can anyone believe ANYTHING you say????
