    I would vote for a presidency that is for free trade. Allow these companies to mature in the market. Though in this case the technology in US cars is extremely behind. I mean were only just getting LFP in cars, and while 800v that allows for super fast charging is markedly common over there, it is in only a few models here. I’m not getting why we’re putting these companies under tariff, we don’t have an EV industry with the capacity to scale affordable EV. A lack of innovation is also something to mention. It really shouldn’t be considered a good thing when a 10 year old EV like the Bolt is a best seller. I wish the US legacy auto EV industry would either build a very basic aerodynamic economy EV with no tech nonsense for under 25k with 250 miles minimum or just leave it to Tesla. I mean all of them have abandoned the economy car market… Why not let the Chinese have that market share if they can’t build something comparable.
