Opinion | $25 Billion. That’s What Trump Cost Detroit.

Trump has decimated American manufacturing and the electric vehicle industry in order to satisfy personal grievances and own the libs.

We are all paying the price in higher costs and dirtier air.

Photo of Trump with his face blacked out.

I think for now on, anyone who is going to post a picture of Trump should do this. I don’t like looking at his face, and I’m sure you guys don’t either. What do you think? 🔄
