    Sadly, I think it was Biden that put a 100% tariff on Chinese EVs. Fuck Trump, but come on, Biden, don’t do this shit for them. I really like that new Xiaomi YU7.

      The issue is not so simple. Blocking BYD has a lot to do with protecting American manufacturing jobs. That’s not to say Biden’s tariff was the right answer. But it is a more complicated problem to solve than it appears from the perspective of a single car buyer.

      But the Chinese government could be spying on you if you bought a Chinese manufactured car!!

      P.S. for bonus points, does anyone know where most GM automobiles are currently being manufactured?
