Still don't understand why EVs are political?

Was there a divide when smartphones came out? Or the internet? It's so silly.

Could Biden's support for electric cars tank his re-election? 'Woke' EVs are now 'political football,' Ford boss warns, as Trump vows to back gasoline engines

As the presidential battle appears to be taking the shape of a 2020 rematch, Trump and Biden are facing off on the EV issue
  • As UAW union workers remain on strike in Michigan, Republicans criticize the administration's commitment to EVs, while Biden is unwavering in his support
  • In a recent Harvard Harris poll, Trump is outperforming Biden. In a direct match up, Trump is shown winning 52 percent of the vote, and Biden 48

Trump vows to undo Biden’s electric vehicle policies

The former president’s latest attempt to win auto workers’ votes came in a video that accused his successor of imposing “crippling mandates” on the industry.

He said he would target Biden’s update to greenhouse gas emissions limits for cars, proposed in April, which the administration has said would result in about 67 percent of new U.S. auto sales being electric by 2032.

The remarks were Trump’s newest effort to turn Biden’s clean-energy policies into a liability among the Rust Belt voters who could hold the key to victory in next year’s presidential election

Except that Trump was behind EVs before. Just like he was the one who claimed to spearhead the Covid vax.

So this is still silly.

Tell me... do you disagree with your party on anything?
 
… it’s why they’re my party… Trump was behind EV’s, but not like this. And yes, I was against vaccination mandates…, but not trying to find one.🤷🏽‍♂️😂😂😂

OK, let’s look at this objectively, dollars and cents. This is a pretty broad representation of the entire EV market. Does this look good to you and successful or is this failure? IMG_1075.pngyou decide.
