I am trying very hard not to comment on President Trump. I have said what I have to say, except something new occurred to me. Why did Donald Trump say that Japan should produce cars in the U.S. when he almost certainly knows they did. Trump watches a lot of news, after all, so he had to know. Certainly I did, though I wasn't sure if they produced the Prius in America (As nearly as I can tell, they are still all made in Japan in spite of announced plans to make some in the U.S..*):
Toyota Motor TM will start producing the hybrid Prius in the U.S. for the first time as the Japanese automaker adjusts its U.S. manufacturing operations to meet customer demands for smaller, more fuel-efficient vehicles.*
.....................................................................
Toyota has 13 North American plants and two under construction in Mississippi and Ontario. The automaker has more than 43,000 workers in North America.*
Well either he lied to appease his base that feels countries like Japan are taking lots of American jobs, OR he is having trouble with his memory. He says he has one of the greatest memories ever. Maybe he did but no longer. This would mean that he honestly doesn't remember, showing first signs of senility. At age 71, it could well be the latter.
