#Trump100Days
Donald Trump, President of the United States, once again attacked the automotive industry, both in Mexico and Canada. During his most recent intervention, the president spoke about the intention to establish this part of trade in his country, considering that his two neighbors 'take part of the business.'
As part of the actions taken during his first 100 days in office, the Republican party politician reiterated the protectionist nature of his administration. In this regard, he stated that 'we seek to make our own cars' and dismissed the imports made from the two countries with which he shares the border.
'We don't need cars from outside when they said: ‘Sir, we want to send you many cars’, I said that we really don't want your cars. We really don't want them. We want to manufacture our own cars, that includes Canada, that includes Mexico, which have taken an enormous amount of our business,' he expressed.
Since the beginning of his administration, Donald Trump has emphasized his intention to move production from automakers located abroad to the United States. To this end, he has imposed a 25% tariff on cars that arrive and are manufactured in other countries. In this regard, some companies have considered relocating part of their production to that country.
