From what I heard on Fox Business - we charge a 2.5% tariff on German cars sold here and Germany charges a 10% tariff on American cars sold in Germany.
German cars in the US control 90% of the luxury car market in the US.

Why Not?

Germnay is the leading force behind all the coddling of all those invading mohammedans in Europe. Put pressure on the German workforce, and who knows, the folks just might take it back!

I support Trump and if this is what he knows is best I am fully behind him.

Americans should be buying American-made cars anyway.

First, it sounds like a bitter joke rather than a serious proposal. If he means tariffs, that’s OK by me.

Second, most of the popular models of Mercedes and BMW are already built in the USA.

Third, adding a few thousands dollars to high-end prestige vehicles wouldn’t deter sales much, especially because there are few American alternatives. For example, the popular BMW 3-series sedan does not have an American competitor except the Cadillac ATS, which is being discontinued.

I doubt that he can “ban” German cars. but as obama threatened coal:

You can have one (a coal plant), but you will go bankrupt running it (???)

This is the dumbest article I’ve read in months. Why would Trump want to get rid of manufactures right here in the US? Only an idiot “reporter” would believe that.
