California doing its own thing with cars is taxation without representation. By increasing the manufacturer's cost of production, California is taxing me with higher car prices here in New Jersey. That's illegal and immoral. Trump is doing the right thing on this.
That's an intellectual gymnastic exercise there. If a car maker chooses not to make a different vehicle for CA and other states, that's their own choice. Car makers are not the government and their pricing is not a tax imposed by the government.

New Jersey can do what it wants. The auto manufacturers can exceed New Jersey's standards if they want to. You'll just have to suffer with clean efficient cars I guess ...

California, a populous state, has less voting power than Wyoming. There is no reason they should not be able to set their own emissions standards and car manufacturers that want to sell into California can decide if it's worth it. They can sell full on polluting cars to Trump country, I truly do not care how black the air is in Trump country.
It's well established by the courts, out of our common law tradition, that no one has a right to cause harm to another. Pollution causes harm.
Prove it in a court and collect damages if it's true. Meanwhile, no double regulation. Unless, as someone else said, Californians pay 100% for all the modification to cars required by their state standards. Every red cent. Including every single factory modification and every ounce of engineering labor. And I want proof.
i am going to have to admit extreme personal bias.
if it were any other state, I would likely at lease raise an eyebrow.
but we are talking about California. A state that I am nearly to the point of thinking we need to declare martial law in, send in the regular army and take over.
they are utterly out of control and no longer represent a meaningful representation of what a state within the United States should look like.

Fine, as long as y'all pay 100% of the cost for the manufacturers having to meet these standards. As long as the price I pay for a car is 100% unaffected in any way, shape, or form by the costs of having to produce cars for your market.
No taxation without representation.
