Months ago, GM told him the tariffs were going to hurt their business, he had no comment. Trump has no clue what he is doing, there will be worse to come. Nothing happens immediately in big business.
It's his turn in the barrel now and they purposely are hitting him where it hurts his base. He's not good for their business.

Did you even read the article you posted? The article was written in June, about what "could" happen. How about what "did" happen?
GM is not going out of business. They are shutting down production of cars that people don't want. Tariffs did not shift consumer demand away from hybrids toward full batter-operated cars. Tariffs did not shift demand away from sedans to crossovers.
"Trump gives himself plenty of credit for anything good that happens, including much of which he had no hand in"
yes he does. He's an egomaniac. That doesn't mean that everything is his doing. Not all the good things, not all the bad things.
Pete, let's make this simple. If Trump's tariffs are responsible for people no longer wanting to buy the Chevy Impala, why didn't the tariffs curtail demand for the Silverado, which is GM's best-selling vehicle?
Please answer that question? Good luck!!
