“Because even if Trump gets back in in 2025, the lead time to change the product plan is about 3 years.”
The problem with this thinking is that large companies and industries think 10, 20, even 50 years ahead. From now on, this kind of anti-lower and middle class crap foisted upon us by an evil cabal of the 1% and twenty-something kids living in their parents’ basements will ALWAYS be no more than two or four years away with the next election. This is why there will be no more ICE engines designed, and why there will NEVER be another new natural gas or coal fired power plant in this country. It won’t matter if the House and Senate are 80% Republican and there is a Republican president. The damage has been done.
I plan on buying a nice SUV in a year or so and taking REAL GOOD care of it. (Assuming the Moderna vax hasn’t killed me by then of course).
