re: #23 Quoth the raven, Covfefe.

So his “automotive proposal” is related to some California regulations? I assume this is around environmental controls, then?

Story from July 25. Trump and various MAGATs have been whining about it ever since. (Their hands-off attitude toward business only applies when business does what they want.)

Major automakers buck Trump’s emissions rollback by signing deal with California

Ford, Volkswagen, Honda, and BMW have reached a deal with California to increase the fuel economy of — and reduce emissions from — their new vehicle fleets through 2026. The deal roughly matches the cleaner car plan put in place by the Obama-era Environmental Protection Agency — a plan that the Trump administration has been working feverishly to undo since the president took office in 2017. It could end up being a crucial victory in the fight to keep vehicle emissions standards high in the face of a worsening climate crisis.
