    “Mercedes-Benz will start building in the United States, and they have a little bit. But do you know what they really are? Assembly, like in South Carolina. But they build everything in Germany and then they assemble it here,” Trump said.

    “They get away with murder because they say, ‘Oh yes, we’re building cars.’ They don’t build cars. They take ‘em out of a box and they assemble ‘em. You could have our child do it,” Trump added.

  2. I’m starting to believe Trump supporters barely believe Democrats are even human. It’s not that they love Trump, it’s that they believe that Democrats are so evil that Trump is the only kind of guy that can stop them. That’s where MAGA is folks.

    > Right now, the former president probably regrets ever participating in the event, although with his cognitive decline, he might think that he nailed it.

    The republican nominee for president……

    I know what his rotted brain is ***trying*** to say.

    He’s suggesting that car manufactures will have most of the car built elsewhere, and then have only a couple of things on said car finished in the US so they can get the “made in America” sticker.

    [But the reality is that most car parts come from all over, and are generally assembled fully in country.](https://s.yimg.com/ny/api/res/1.2/.9Hba09I5KC_tD55tiHXgA–/YXBwaWQ9aGlnaGxhbmRlcjt3PTk2MDtoPTEwMDg7Y2Y9d2VicA–/https://media.zenfs.com/en-US/cms/autos/ConsumerReportsNews/CRM_Page_51_Import_from_Detroit_05-15.png)

    So your Toyota vehicle will typically have the engine fully assembled in Japan, and the engine itself shipped to the States. Then the rest of the components are bought from the world market and assembled in the US.

    The thing is, Trump is a failed retail businessman. So he’s used to bullshitting people about, well, anything. When you’re hawking retail, it’s mostly on vibes and very little on actual facts or logic. You’re largely selling an idea.

    I don’t know if you guys have noticed, but that ***does not*** translate well into the presidential arena – to the policy arena – because you can’t actually just make shit up. You have to actually know what you’re talking about or people can just…check the facts lol.

    So that is partly why you have Trump sitting there telling auto workers how “easy” it is to put a car together. Trump has no clue, or maybe he has a concept of a clue on how it works.

  5. This is the best tl;dr I could make, [original](https://newrepublic.com/post/187196/trump-trashes-autoworkers-bloomberg-economy-interview) reduced by 81%. (I’m a bot)
    *****
    > Donald Trump's sit-down interview Tuesday with the Economic Club of Chicago went completely off the rails as the Republican presidential nominee struggled to offer concrete answers to a business-minded crowd, and miraculously performed even worse as he was fact-checked live onstage.

    > Later in the interview, Micklethwait noted that Trump's policies would effectively stop trade with China, particularly since tariffs already exist on trade with the foreign power-a reality that Trump couldn't accept.

    > While discussing U.S. labor, Trump claimed that autoworkers at U.S. plants for foreign car companies such as Mercedes-Benz simply assemble parts "Out of a box" and that children could do their jobs.

    I am thankful Donald is a moron.

    Simultaneously I am afraid the 2028 Republican presidential nominee won’t be a moron and that will make it easier to normalize fascist behavior

  7. ronswansonificator on

    Donald Trump has never built anything with his tiny little hands, ever. I would pay good money to watch him fail tragically at assembling an Ikea bookcase on his own.

  9. Keeps railing against Mexico, even though he decided to renegotiate NAFTA all over again, and said it was a great deal.

    Ugh, I don’t even know why I bother anymore

    Next headline: Trumps smears his own poop in his face live on TV, up next, polls tied.

  11. Pathfinder6227 on

    Good thing the Teamster primadonna who is definitely not getting paid on the side by Trump Co is refusing to take sides in this election.

  12. CptMorgan337 on

    This is all noise at this point. Anyone voting for him is unlikely changing their mind barring him dying before the election.

  13. crudedrawer on

    No one cares. No one ever cares. MAGA hates the rest of us and is so sure of their superiority they will never budge on supporting this piece of filth.

  14. Apart_Ad_5993 on

    Continually supporting Trump at this point is like cheering on the guy who repeatedly smashes your face.

  15. ChrisEFWTX on

    This sick orange bastard is against the interests of every American. Vote him out of existence!

  16. Separate-Feedback-86 on

    They still won’t vote for the “woman” cuz what will the other guys on the line think? They couldn’t let their union boys down like that.

  17. Are there any auto workers or plant workers in Michigan that can comment on co-workers opinions on this ass hat!? He’s dissed Detroit and now auto workers in a span of a week. How can they support him?

  18. Fappy_as_a_Clam on

    >The former president may have handed an easy campaign ad for the Harris campaign to use not only in Michigan but also in Ohio, which is home to several auto industry plants.

    No, he really didn’t. if they aired that in Michigan, the UAW workers would cheer, agree with him, and shit talk Mercedes for doing it.

    Source: a Michigander that married into a UAE family.

  19. Omg he is so fucking stupid.

    He doesn’t understand how manufacturing works.

    There is no car in the world where every single component is made in the same factory and then built into the final assembly….

    What a fucking moron.

    Does he also think cars should have their own mine and steal mill on site? Like what a complete idiot. Jesus Christ I am so embarrassed for anyone who supports this man.

  20. It honestly befuddles me.

    If you go to the YouTube video of this interview, the comments (generally his supporters) all say he’s a literal genius and that he knows what he’s talking about.

    I can’t wrap my head around how he’s hypnotized so many people in to believing in his “weave”.

  21. woodsongtulsa on

    Tell me no. Not after telling us that the US will devolve into the hole that is Detroit.

  22. continuousBaBa on

    It’s only a disaster if it hurts him. Which it won’t. It never does. Vote his ass out of here!

  23. nature_half-marathon on

    Watched the whole thing. 
    He’s completely clueless on everything.

  24. Feisty_Currency3737 on

    There’s people out there who voted for him knowing he smells like butt.

  25. IdahoDuncan on

    But the union guys mostly love him. Cuz he’s a man’s man. What morons

  26. There is something profoundly fcked up in American politics. How a moron like Trump may actually win the White House again is beyond explanation. I lay the responsibility for this mess squarely at FoxNews who knowingly traffics in disinformation and to a lesser extent at the right wing YouTube crowd who usually knows next to nothing about what they’re talking about.
    The third culprit is the American people themselves who have lost the ability to critically think about the issues of the day. Since high school they are walking the country into a disaster.

  27. Well Trump all but 100% confirmed that he has spoken to Putin. When asked he said “I don’t comment on that but if I did it’s a smart thing”

  28. > “…They don’t build cars. They take ’em out of a box, and they assemble ’em. We could have our child do it.”

    I will pay good money to watch any of his kids assemble a car. It doesn’t even have to run. They just need to assemble all of the pieces.

  29. Key_Payment_5420 on

    Blue collar workers are voting for hate over their own wellbeing.

  30. “Make the foreigners pay”. Sure, you promised that Mexico would pay. How’d that work out?

    You didn’t even build the wall. For two years, you did nothing with the wall. Mexico said “no” (actually, the words that they used were a little stronger).

    By the time you left office, the sections that you did build were falling down, blowing away, or climbable by anyone following a trip to the local Home Depot.

  31. They will still vote for him cause hating people is way more important than their own welfare.

  32. He didn’t mean HIS child can do that, just ‘a’ child. Trump’s offspring couldn’t wipe their own asses… Heard Don Jr. is carrying on the trump tradition of wearing diapers before being middle aged

  33. Imaginary_Most_7778 on

    He could shit directly in his supporters mouths. They would still vote for him.
