Holy shit, the absolute madman.
How will Germany recover?
Holy shit, the absolute madman.
How will Germany recover?
this is both funny, and sad for Germany
Isn't this how ww2 happened?
glad trumpie is pushing for a stronger EU
French cars is what America needed since forever.
WTF I love America now
Nope, ww2 was about Indians.
French cars are average, Japanese cars are the best cars in the world.
German cars are very average, but they are very overrated because at one time, after the war they used to be great, but because of marketing, many people still think German cars are good, while a Volkswagen isn't better than a Peugeot and a Mercedes is shit comparatively to a Lexus.
Germany will be forced to take more actions into our own hands, so I hope Trump will go full trade war with the EU (even tho I don't belive his millionair friends would allow it, he is stupid enough to do it). Germany will finally wake up for a third time
Yes because it went so well for you the last two times.
Thirs time's the charm and you can only win if you try
what does that mean, he wants germans to close factories? to stop selling their cars? what is it
>Japanese cars are the best cars in the world
Unfixeable shit
>t. dumbass who never performs maintainance or fixes his own cars
jap cars are the easiest in the world to fix
Its german cars that are a pain in the ass
Not even a weeb
This is good for us because now those companies will have lost a huge chunk of their market and will try to make it up by increasing presence in other big markets, like India, so their cars will become cheaper/more accessible for us.
Thanks Donald!
how the fuck will he do this? mercedes is producing most of his cars, that are sold for the us market, in america. he had to close factories to accomplished this, that will destroy hundred thousands of jobs in america. this guy is a fucking retard beyond help.
Think for five seconds, you fucking idiot
>The Rust Belt won Trump the elections
>The Rust Belt once had a flourishing automobile industry, driven by General Motors (a company which, by selling Opel to the French, abandoned the European market)
>German cars are driven out of the market
>?????
What do you think will happen? German factories will close and be replaced by nothing? Americans will suddenly use skateboards with paddles to go to work? Of course not, they'll buy American cars. Ford, Chevrolet, the works.
nice day to be a Jeep driver
>Mercedes is shit comparatively to a Lexus.
It's just shot my co-workers less than a year old Mercedes has had 6 or 7 recalls for design problems including a breaking issue.
no it wont, it will suffocate your own industry though because everyone will want bmws
>jap cars are the easiest in the world to fix
>Its german cars that are a pain in the ass
My Jetta had one of the most inaccessible oil filters.
isnt he of german heritage?
drumpf or so
this is some USSR tier mentality, ppl will still want german cars, all you achieved is increased the price because the supply will be lower
russians did the exact same thing
>comrade we offer you great cossack merci, you want?
>no thanks ill get a used western car thankyou
post tits
I'd honestly just buy a used japanese car to get by
As if most of us have money to buy a brand new car in the first place...
>this is some USSR tier mentality
Yeah, it's called protectionism. It's not great but whatever.
Many Americans would, probably. The thing is America doesn't have an insane trade deficit with Japan based on anti-competitive measures like the "Free Trade Area" that makes it borderline impossible for American cars to enter the European market (which may play a role in the aforementioned Opel sale).
That's not how capitalism works my dude. The increased competition will lead to more funding and thus better products, and most people still won't be able to afford BMWs anyway. Also, the German companies will probably start making local partners to manufacture and sell their cars like the nips are doing. Thanks to the new increased taxes on motor vehicles nor manufactured locally, this will also mean more jobs.
WW3 soon
yea and india will be finally a superpower, dream on pajeet
I hope he does it.
PSA Peugeot Citroën in 2025
Wants american companies to stop importing german manufactured cars, presumably.
>That's not how capitalism works
>implying it does
They already done it, urop japan and us already a partner on some, they called it platform sharing. Not only platform but they share assembly / manifacturing plant too
Why only German? Iirc Toyota is one of the most popular manufacturers in usa
lol what the fuck is his problem? what a dumbass
How good is murrican car anyway?
Despite ebin maymays they are good enough. I wouldnt say they are marvels of engineering or anything though.
3rd world tier.
Germany BTFO. It also shows that Trump is not MUH HERITAGE but AMERICA FIRST and a proud American because his ancestry is German.
>My Jetta had one of the most inaccessible oil filters.
wow its almost as if theres so much corruption in the german auto industry that they purposely overengineer their own cars so you can't repair it so you have to take it to the dealer so they get more money
the quality of American cars is a joke that's why high income Americans rather buy a BMW or Mercedes since German cars are worth the money. That's free market capitalism. Btw German car manufactures produce certain models exclusively in the US.

They don't care about oil consumption.
Their design is more toward beauty, less toward smart use of volume.
>to fix
Don't confuse american to fix with Russian to fix, dude. American to cook means 'get precooked frozen shit at the supermarket, put it in the microwave'.
the monkey is dumb as fuck, unironically
pic related, 2016 but you get it
Somewhere there is a Trump voter loosing his job for this. And it makes me so happy.
>Top 3 are all tacky redneck tier pickups
You cant make this up
>going full isolationist
>Japanese cars are outselling American ones
>WE MUST BAN LUXURY BRANDS
How does he even justify this?
SAD
Simple: All his friends have German cars, therefore they are preventing growth of American industry.
Coming up next: more taxes on sturgeon caviar and foreign golf clubs.
He's THE people person - t. amerifats
what do you mean? It just means that there will be more blue collar jobs
because he is fucking idiot and senile as shit.
But this car was made in guatemala
Japan is our closest ally, e*ropeans are not
if i had to take a guess i'd say he's too scared to piss off the japs, for a number of reasons. but i've honestly no idea.
About half a million Americans are either directly are indirectly employed by German automakers.
The biggest exporting car manufacturer in the US isn't GM but BMW.
Trump just sold out American citizens to a Chinese company that was caught spying for the Chinese government and now he wants to destroy half a million jobs.
This guy is an idiot but not the funny kind. He's straight up malign.
>that damage control
The new ford cars are really good. How can you even recover from this?
BMW is Germany, right?
Volvo is Sweden, right?
they wouldnt be able to if he did that.
their only choice would be to double down on selling to china.
and then we will be wiped out? no thanks
His only problem is the trade deficit.
Good.
Retarded German Engineering my ass.
It must be pretty sad to manufacture overpriced cars that can't even run without paying an arm and a leg to those kike dealerships.
What an embarrassment to the Car Industry.
xaxaxaxaxaxaxaxaxaxa
what do you think will happen to americans working in a german manufacturers factory or dealership?
he's right though. Eastern europeans have no fucking clue what "preventive maintenance" is. They will keep riding something until dead and then start scramming around to get it running again inherently damaging whatever parts are inside it and shortening it's overall lifespan.
but Varg said only middle easterners do this.
Varg is severely braindamaged.
The point of discussion is Trump his ban on German automobiles not the quality of them.
And even if they were as bad as you make them out to be, why do Americans prefer them to Caddilacs and other American luxury cars?
lol why is he always picking on germany. what's his problem, isn't he half german
A push for Tesla. Based Trump saving the earth, well done.
Meanwhile in germany: "What do you mean our cars are poisonous? Where's my tax loophole?"
Most Americans have driven Japanese cars since the 80s.
Tesla is fucking tiny compared to real car manufactures. It is meme car.
Nope. Modern Japanese engines are scum wrt to fixability. Some Japanese engines from 1980s were good.
Good. Fuck Mercedes for killing grey market imports. Only bad thing about this is that it didn't happen sooner
But it exists. German electric cars don't. There's been attempts, but they can only get you to the store around the corner before running out of battery, whilst losing every race possible, being the slow, ugly and fucking expensive pieces of shit they are.
I like to think big.
I suppose his electorale likes to believe Germany is the reason they are angry.
You still cannot import Alfa Romeo into California thanks to nanny state regulations, right?
There are a lot of other electric cars. Even the buses here are now electric.
What are you, szhenzhen?
My city had hydrogen busses in the 90s
Bawwww
No more welfare money for refugees in germany :(
Trump is literally Hitler
My city had a natural gas buses in 90s.
The worst ngl
Only experience it once in a while when company cheaps out on the rental
Biggest surprise: Hyundai Santa Fe
really really good
I wonder what his endgame is though. The EU has clausules that mean that any ban regarding specific EU countries will be responded to EU wide.
Fuck German faggots.
I hope Russia will ban german cars too, and also close their factories here.
What endgame? He tried to make trade deals with Merkel. I like this timeline.
But then Russians have nothing to work for their entire lives
We will nationalize their factories and make ladas or some other shit. No jobs would lost.
>trump bans german cars because americans can't compete
And Merkel had to reportedly tell him 12 times that she can't negotiate trade deals as a member state of the EU.
No, that's when you allied with Hitler to split up Eastern Europe.
Polish cars is the future.
If he actually succeeds in banning them, we don't have to deal with shitty obnoxious German car drivers anymore.
Most Americans prefer German cars for the reasons of the brand, style and it being imported.
Not necessarily the performance or reliability.
When Americans think of luxury cars, they think European.
I can't obviously speak for every American but most drivers of German cars here are clueless and are some of the worst drivers on the planet.
The German dealerships know their market, and will continue delivering subpar vehicles under the protection of their brand name.
Come on Mutti Merkel, don't let us down now. 3rd times a charm!!!!
No, he is garbage
Why are the only people that call German cars subpar Trump voters, Brexiteers and 3K Civic virgins from /o/?
I’m not saying they’re great but VW easily outperforms Ford in reliability.
>reliability
It's libtard social construct. Real men use muscle cars.
