  1. I wouldn't be at all surprised if your comment actually made sense to you. On the other hand, not so much to anybody else.
  2. Certainly lots people will just hold on to their cars a lot longer which translates to less new car sales and otherwise would have been the case. . Virtually all cars that cost under $30,000 in the United States are imports. They are projected to rise and cost by $6,000 on average. Not a great time to be a middle class or working class American.
  3. The article I link to did not cite anonymous sources. It's specifically cited the IRC. Maybe you should try reading the article before you comment on it.
  4. Any news that's unwelcome to Trump supporters becomes fake news. Thanks for the lack of evidence.
  5. I suggest that you take a course in remedial reading since there is nothing in the article on which this topic is based that has anything to do with your comment.
  6. Actually, it's April 2. Or rather it was Apr 2. Except it wasn't. April 2 has passed without any revelations. For weeks, President Donald Trump has promoted April 2 as “Liberation Day” in America, when a number of massive tariffs will be announced to fulfill the administration’s ambitious economic agenda. The plan has largely remained a mystery, however, as Trump and his administration have floated a number of constantly changing and conflicting proposals. https://edition.cnn.com/2025/03/31/business/liberation-day-announcement-trump/index.html
  7. For some people apparently a valid form of discourse is to ask loaded questions and provide no evidence- linked answers. You've got nothing.
  8. Unlike me coming you still offer no evidence. Just empty rhetoric. You've got nothing
  9. All you offer is speculation about supplies. You offer no evidence to back it up. The article clearly says the IRC ordered the camp to close on January 31st. You've got nothing.
  10. Reporting from an alternative universe? Myanmar refugees face sudden discharge from Thai hospitals shuttered by US aid freeze Healthcare centres serving tens of thousands of refugees on the Thai-Myanmar border have been ordered shut after U.S. President Donald Trump froze most foreign aid last week, forcing Thai officials to transport the sickest patients to other facilities. The International Rescue Committee (IRC), which funds the clinics with U.S. support, told the facilities to shut by Friday, Jan. 31, according to a local official and two camp committee members. https://archive.ph/mgN8w#selection-1255.28-1259.194
  11. He went ahead with a deal because he had no choice. He raised all kinds of BS objections and they were all shot down. He was dragged kicking and screaming into that deal.
  12. You forgot that he bought Tesla because he had to. He tried to wriggle his way out of honoring his offer but failed.
  13. Tesla isn't in the lead on FSD. It's only level 2. 9 Chinese companies are already testing level 3. Non-tesla level 2 cars in China cost a lot less than Teslas.
  14. Here's your comment once again: China are heavily invested in Burma... US are not, stands to reason that China helps no? What has China's investment in Burma got to do with the fact of the mass closure of hospitals due to the withdrawal of USAID funding? A couple of months ago it would have stood to reason that USAID would have helped, too.
  15. Apart from the fact that you're an anonymous poster so your personal claims aren't verifiable, you apparently you believe that Thailand is part of China. Of course you could claim to be living in China. Again, not verifiable. You've got nothing.
  16. By the way. Tesla's FSD is only a level 2 system. Tesla’s autonomous technology sees changes in China Stricter oversight from China’s government has forced Tesla to change the name of its Full Self-Driving (FSD) technology, which isn’t actually fully autonomous. In China, FSD, which operates at a Level 2 out of the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) 5 self-driving levels, will now be marketed under “Intelligent Assisted Driving” instead of its previous “FSD Intelligent Assisted Driving” label. https://autos.yahoo.com/tesla-removes-fsd-name-autonomous-120000678.html Here are 9 "nobody else's" already testing level 3 autonomous driving sytems BEIJING, June 4 (Reuters) - China has granted approval to a first group of nine automakers to carry out tests on vehicles with advanced autonomous driving technologies on public roads, as part of a plan to accelerate adoption of self-driving cars. The tests of so-called level three autonomous driving technologies will be carried out by automakers including BYD and Nio (9866.HK), opens new tab, as well as major state-owned manufacturers such as Changan Automobile (000625.SZ), opens new tab, GAC (601238.SS), opens new tab and SAIC (600104.SS), opens new tab, according to a statement published by the industry ministry on Tuesday. https://www.reuters.com/business/autos-transportation/china-gives-first-approvals-public-trials-advanced-autonomous-driving-2024-06-04/
  17. Well, I asked you because of this remarkably unintelligent comment of yours: "I will let you know if i see one in person."
  18. What's the world's biggest car market? I'll give you 2 clues: it isn't the United States. Nor Thailand.
  19. You might want to stop sharing here your ignorance of the Chinese auto market, https://cnevpost.com/2025/01/01/zeekr-deliveries-dec-2024/
  20. You sure about that? Tesla Rival Zeekr (NYSE:ZK) Launches First EV with Level 3 Autonomous Driving https://www.theglobeandmail.com/investing/markets/stocks/BYD/pressreleases/31455423/tesla-rival-zeekr-nysezk-launches-first-ev-with-level-3-autonomous-driving/ And there's this: Tesla Suddenly Suspends Full Self-Driving Trial in China https://uk.finance.yahoo.com/news/tesla-suddenly-suspends-full-self-140418971.html
  21. U.S. manufacturing contracted in March after growing for two straight months, while a measure of inflation at the factory gate jumped to the highest level in nearly three years amid rising anxiety over tariffs on imported goods. Anecdotes from the Institute for Supply Management survey on Tuesday offered a gloomy assessment of business conditions, with tariffs cited as a major factor by manufacturers. President Donald Trump's wave of tariffs has eroded business and consumer confidence. https://archive.ph/4EBTS
  22. When Tesla started up it didn't have much in the way of competition. When it comes to robo taxis, it's just one of many. And a very expensive one at that.
  23. Your comment in question had nothing to do with your personal belief about tobacco restrictions. You tried to minimize the significance of his dismissal of King by citing Trump's personal distaste for alcohol and tobacco when in fact the evidence showed that he had already previously reneged on a promise to impose tough restrictions on flavored vape.
  24. Still deflecting from the fact that there was no conspiracy in the Justice dept to go after Trump. No illegality committed. A 4 year investigation into that belief with the highest backing ended in complete and utter failure.
