Is there even a car that is 100% made in the US, parts and labor?
I ask because I’m very confused by this article.
President Trump on Wednesday announced 25% tariffs on autos and auto parts that are not produced in the U.S., effective on April 2.
Ok, so if I don’t build a car here or build the parts here then I get charged a tariff.
“We’ll effectively be charging a 25% tariff, but if you build your car in the United States, there is no tariff,” Trump told reporters.
Ok, so I don’t have to pay a tariff on the parts I use to build my cars here in the US?
In a fact sheet released after Trump’s Oval Office comments, the White House said auto parts compliant with the USMCA trade deal will remain “tariff-free” until Customs and Border Protection “establishes a process to apply tariffs to their non-U.S. content.”

The problem is you’re thinking about this more than these dumbasses have.
