Look, it’s not a left or a proper view to say that Donald Trump doesn’t precisely know what the hell he’s speaking about. Particularly when it comes to the auto trade. He was type of proper nonetheless, with this bizarre non-sequitur throughout a marketing campaign cease this week in Flint, Michigan: Nukes are a menace to the auto trade.
To be clear, Trump is technically proper, as a result of nuclear weapons are a menace to, nicely, every thing, however that’s so far as we’re prepared to throw Trump a bone. Chatting with and taking questions from auto employees in Flint, Michigan on September 17, Trump most likely ought to have talked about all types of points affecting the employees and their lives. As a substitute, he concern mongered about Chinese language EVs killing the American auto trade, even going as far as to present a timeline of when the auto trade would die, whereas blaming EV incentives for the homicide. One among his greatest mind farts was when somebody requested a query in regards to the menace to manufacturing jobs.
Throughout the rally a person by the title of Isaiah stood and stated he’s a third-generation UAW employee who at the moment works at a Ford plant. After declaring that he was “constructing vans right here in America!” Trump stated “Prepare, you’re going to be doing loads of it.” He then requested Trump what the previous president and convicted felon thought the most important menace to manufacturing jobs in Michigan and what he would do to eradicate that menace. With out hesitation, Trump spewed his normal phrase vomit.
“Okay, so I’ll get into one other little little bit of an extended reply. As a result of once you say main menace, to me we have now one actually main menace. That’s referred to as nuclear weapons.”
I imply, Trump is true. Nuclear weapons are a menace. Nonetheless that was under no circumstances a correct response to the query the younger man requested. Final time I checked, no nations had been threatening Michigan manufacturing facilities with nuclear strikes. The hits didn’t cease coming in the course of the city corridor.
Right here he’s saying that sea degree rise resulting from world warming can be good as a result of there’d be extra sea entrance property whereas the gang cheers. Only a reminder; this was in Michigan. These are recent water individuals!
One other clip exhibits him saying he’ll decrease the price of groceries by elevating costs on imported meals. One among our presidential candidates people. November goes to be nuts.
