President Donald Trump asked Monday that Japanese automakers consider making vehicles in the U.S., apparently unaware they've been doing that for more than 30 years.

I've seen this pretty often, though. A lot of people have no idea that a lot of Japanese and Korean vehicles are built here. In terms of parts content, you have to go pretty far down the list to find an American brand. But people prefer to buy an "American" car which was actually built in Canada or Mexico...
Trump is no more out of touch here than half of the country. Which is still pretty out of touch.[/quote]
Could be true, but I have yet to meet anyone, besides Trump, who isn't aware of this. But sadly, he isn't aware of much.
