Talking about making America’s military great again (MAMGA?), this was said:
“The White House is seeking expanded manufacturing commitments from defense contractors, [and] is pressing automakers to convert spare production capacity to defense.”
Ummm the way I see it, the only “spare production capacity” that U.S. automakers have right now — because they sure as hell ain’t gonna quit making SUVs and pickup trucks — is in EV. And I’m not so sure that the Dept. of War is looking for EV stuff unless it’s drones.
As always with Salamander, it’s a fine article.
