What can a President do?
Same as Ronald Reagan did when he saved Harley Davidson.

He can lobby Congress to make and change laws.
He can use the “Bully Pulpit” to speak against any move. If he can turn the American People against such a move.......................

The first is iffy, considering the current congress is in the pockets of the Chamber of Commerce and big Corporations.

The second, coming from a popular president would be very effective.

Harley was saved, but what was the impact on consumers? US motorcycle sales dropped from just over 800,000 units in 1983 to about 550,000 units in 1987. The average price of a Harley went from about $6,000 in 1983 to about $8,000 in 1987. How happy are consumers going to be when there weekly trips to Walmart cost them an additional 25%?
