Chinese's EV's can't break into the us market. Biden put 100% special tairf on Chinese ev.

And Trump has said that he intends to cancel that tariff [1]. Honestly, the narrative that Biden enabled Chinese EV encroachment is very bizarre. It reflects almost the exact opposite of the actions the candidates have actually taken.

It's only odd until you say the candidate is Trump

I'm not sure you are referencing the correct article. It just mentions Trump threatening to raise the tariffs to 200% and eliminating the EV mandate. I saw nothing about Trump canceling tariffs.

China has had an auto industry for decades. And yet zero vehicles in the US.

That hasn’t been because of Biden. It’s because they make non-US market vehicles specifically.

We can’t make $5000 new vehicles. They can’t pass our regulations and standards while making the profits they like.

I worked with Beijing Jeep awhile back. They have no interest in the US market.
