we get EV's that don't suck ass and are cheap enough to compete with dino juice cars.

BYD is making those

Biden ain't keen on letting us have them cheap and lord knows it ticks all the wrong boxes for Trump so I don't see him changing course... Then there's the whole multiple fires thing which would absolutely be hopped on by anyone with an axe to grind (presuming those 10 were all just random fires and not the cars being tinderboxes)

Trump would dismantle all the Biden stuff he can just like he did with Obama. Doesn't matter if its good, but if Biden did it he would undo it.

Considering BYD is a Chinese EV, and Trump hates China with a burning passion (And was promising Big Oil concessions for cash), I gotta imagine he'd just double down on the tariffs or otherwise claim credit for them, rather then reverse course.
