The US is #2 in the world in EVs behind China. Tesla leads the US in EVs, and is #2 in the world.
A sample of more reasonable titles:
1. US is #2 in EV manufacturing and sales, can they catch up to China?
2. How did BYD catch up so quickly to Tesla?
3. Why can't Europe create its own Tesla?
... I mean, Europe _has_ its own Tesla, in VW AG, Stellantis, BMW, Mercedes, etc; their combined global BEV sales are similar to or slightly greater than Tesla's global sales. Why are you expecting one pseudo-monopoly manufacturer? While that _is_ kinda the case in the US, that's more a function of the US car market being pretty broken than anything else.
(It's not even the case in China; while BYD is big, and gets a lot of press, China does have other significant manufacturers.)
I'm less than convinced the solution is for the US to play the same games. I'm rather against it altogether.
