How do you know that Trump had anything to do, with their decision to discontinue production of certain vehicles? Has that been published? Because what I read, is that they cut production of vehicles that weren't selling. I didn't see Trump mentioned. Are you on the Board of Directors?

The tariffs have a big downside, they could turn out to be a disaster (we don't know yet). What I've asked you several times, is how the tariffs are responsible for GM's announcement. And you refuse to answer. Again.

Not Silverados, they cut the weakest part of their market, the cars most likely to be bought by consumers who can least afford an increase.

From that article: The “hardest hit” cars, General Motors said in comments submitted to the Commerce Department, are likely to be the ones bought by consumers who can least afford an increase. Demand would suffer and production would slow, all of which “could lead to a smaller G.M.”

buying the Volt? I doubt that very much.

You’re making it up.

The article was what “could”
happen, not what did happen.

they also cut the cadillac CT6 andnthe cadillac XTS. are these cars that poor people are buying?

What kind of "evidence" do you need
Do you think "poor" people are the bottom of their market?
Poor people don't buy cars, middle class people do and as car prices go up they price them out of the new car market.
Are you telling me the Volt, Cruze and Impala are high end cars?

It's mostly the lower end less selling models being cut.
