On the tariff topic, for tractors specifically, I don't think it will happen. I think they are scared to Death of BYD and other car makers, and the only reason the US auto makers are in business still, is existing tariffs and other bureaucratic blocks to new makers importing into the US. I know people will say, "I would Never buy a car made in China." Well, except from a few zealots, most people will buy what appears to be the best value for themselves. Your money has no citizenship, and the only group You should owe loyalty is yourself and your family.
With that, as a country, the US Should strive to keep atleast a good number of vehicles manufactered in the US (and I don't think Canada is any better than Thailand or China from that aspect), but as a consumer, I expect everyone to buy with their own interests, not the Feds.
If smart people are paying attention to the world, their biggest fear should be what our "ally" just did, planting explosives in an unknown number of cell phones. You can't tell me that was just in Lebanon. That was just the devices that were triggered, and if our federal government could, they would plant explosives in every device sold, in country and out....
