Americans will pay higher prices for everything American made? Lol

Kinda doubt it.
Tarrifs = higher prices, non tariffed good prices will also rise because they can and still be less than tariffed goods. Prices will rise overall, this is not my opinion, its a fact. Bone bone (and maybe Blitty) can confirm.

Also the possibility of the US dollar value falling vs other currencies may make things costlier as well.
 
Active tariffs result in higher prices, no doubt about it. I think here the idea was that some of the threat was a negotiation to drive prices down... I have no idea what the plan is now.
I don't think anyone knows the plan. It's still early, but the economy is the biggest reason he was hired. He's been good on the other issues.
 

Define "not a lot", Bone Bone

This is likely going to kill Nissan, and will hurt Porsche badly.

This thread is increasingly bewildering.

Autos manufactured in Mexico and Canada are not considered imported for the purpose of tariffs only non north American parts. The MI econ numbers use an economic definition of imported.
Direct imports are small.

I have no clue about where most cars are made. Are a lot of Toyotas and Hondas made in Canada/Mexico?
 
The NY real estate guy Trump? Don't know. I haven't actually viewed or read what he said.


Looks like it's complicated. NAFTA and successors defined imports as not including NA assembled vehicles. Regardless, it's much more (on a total car or part of cars in sum) than I thought.
 
Trump : You have to buy my stuff.

World: We don't need your stuff

Trump: How dare you not need our stuff.
=======================================================

Trump: we don't need anyone else. They only take our stuff.

World: fine.

Trump : but you can't work together! You have to buy my stuff.

This is some Pixar despicable me stuff.
