I could give Trump credit for it if he forced people to buy small cars but that wouldn't be market driven. It would be more along the line of what a liberal would do. They would do it with regulation just like they did it with coal.
Low gas prices is one component that has always driven small car sales and gas prices are going up again.
Market driven is a result of demand. As the demand changes the market for the product changes to meet the demand. If there is increased demand for small cars here in the US, which we are not seeing now, then manufacturing here will bring jobs back or pay a higher fee to bring them into the country. That may price them out of the market when compared to manufactures who are producing small cars here.

Ford has been a very well run company over the last 2 decades and I trust them more than any of our 3 most recent or incoming presidents.
So hybrids will account for larger cars more in demand compared to smaller cars. That sounds like a solution for Americans who prefer larger cars. Ford's vision = hybrids = market driven solution for customer satisfaction. Hybrids produced outside the US would pay a higher tariff and give Ford good market share. Good jobs here = Trump's vision.

Obama's cooperation with terrorists is well documented. In his latest round of cooperation he says he will be releasing some 20 of the most dangerous terrorist from GITMO knowing that 30% will get back on the battlefield and kill Americans. When he isn't loading them up with money, like Iran. He releases those that will increase their ranks.

Even as the country is being rocked by rowdy nationwide protests against a Jan. 1 gasoline price hike, the Ford news led the front pages of Mexico's most influential newspapers on Wednesday, and they tied the development directly to President-elect Donald Trump.

I think this thread is a perfect example of how Trump conned his believers. Facts are SOOOOOO confusing, gossip and innuendo are so much more fun !

When Trump goes high Obama goes low. Obama the deceiver in chief is beside himself and green with envy of Trump. While Trump is keeping his promises even before taking office Obama is running around like a banshee trying to stay relevant as his legacy crumbles. All the lies and deceit of Obama is coming back to haunt him as he scrambles around to keep the spotlight on him. One tweet from Trump burns two thousand calories off Obama. If liberals want to help Obama they should consider ordering him a pizza delivery.


Probably doesn't matter, Trump needs to bring in the political equivalent of ServPro, erase all of his ill fated attempts at whatever, wipe out all executive orders that don't work and enact laws to make it doubly hard to remove later....just dismantle him...he never did much except help get us to 19 Trillion, with a "T", in debt......


Obama, like he never even happened.....

Believe what? That Obama is a Muslim terrorist? No I KNOW that. As far as what Trump will actually do, your guess is as good as mine. I'll let you know in 4 years where we are, with my vote of course.
