It’s really weird how treating your number one trade partner like a punchline for several years has consequences. Who could have foreseen this?!?

I will shed no tears for dealerships.

But I also don't want cheap Chinese goods dumped to undercut domestic products. If another country can put domestic auto companies out of business, then we're at their mercy for what we can buy for cars.

I do want Chinese goods that I can afford. Can I download their cars? Cuz I will if I can.
