When Marie Antoinette was being told that the peasants did not even have bread, she replied by saying the above. Donald Trump, during an interview was questioned about the fact that tariffs would dramatically increase the costs of purchasing an automobile. This is how he responded.

“I couldn’t care less. I hope they raise their prices, because if they do, people are gonna buy American-made cars. We have plenty.”

American made cars include parts from Canada and Mexico, which, it appears, will be tariffed. So even the cost of American made cars will increase.

Donald Trump is hoping that all auto parts will be produced by American manufacturers. He does not seem to realize that if this even happens,it will take years for it to occur . But for now, let them eat cake.

All I have for today.
