> best of luck if you're a car factory worker in France or Germany

You mean the ones who fought tooth and nail for comfy jobs within unions with barely no way to fire anyone? And now are wondering where the jobs and the money went?

Actually most of the jobs went back to Germany, just ask US car workers. Where the company headquarters are mattered more than those unions. I guess that's why Trump is angry. German management are just not respecting the almighty god of capitalism.

(of course the US has been sabotaging all car sales with the only potential exception of Tesla and Trump has not changed)
