I think we do understand, and know better. Don't whine here when the price of Jeeps keeps going up and up. No automaker is going to scrap their long-range plans only to have to do an about-face when fuel economy regs change again here real soon.
“We” know better than a President that graduated from the Wharton School of Business, one of (if not the best) business school in the country. Got it.

Tavares had plans to move Jeep manufacturing and those long range plans are now scrapped.

And bankrupted 4 casinos. Four.

Do you know how casinos work?

People walk in to the casino.

They give you all of their money.

Then they walk out of the casino.

Somehow he found the flaw in that plan.

After being threatened by an old man with dementia. So.... automakers aren't allowed to lower their costs and prices for consumers by manufacturing their trucks in Mexico? I'm confused.

I wish I could claim it as mine. I got it from Christopher Titus. A very funy comedian.

If it was that easy we would all own casinos or would invest in nothing but casinos. We'd be stupid not to. I'm not judging his business acumen either way, just saying that no business is as simplistic as that (and, in this particular case, all of Atlantic City declined).

His casinos declined into bankruptcy faster than all other Atlantic City casinos. 🤷‍♂️

Subaru’s are being built in Indiana and Mercedes are being built in Alabama. Why aren’t they moving to Mexico? Why didn’t they build their plants in Mexico to begin with?

Tavares was trying to bust the union to lower costs. I hope that clears up your confusion…

Everybody talks about failures, but not successes. For any successful person. How many successful ventures has he had?

As any successful person will tell you: “If you haven’t had any failures, you aren’t trying hard enough.“

I don't know, why? You should explain it.

Explain it to me like I'm a 35 year old guy without a college degree who thinks $15/hr for a minimum wage is absolutely bonkers.
