Summary
The incoming Trump administration plans extensive rollbacks on electric vehicle (EV) policies, including eliminating EV subsidies, blocking battery imports, canceling federal EV purchases, and reversing $7.5 billion in charging infrastructure funding.
EPA fuel efficiency standards will revert to 2019 levels, increasing vehicle emissions by 25%.
Trade tariffs, applied globally, will raise EV costs, while California’s stricter emissions rules face renewed opposition.
Public safety regulations, such as crash reporting for automated vehicles, are also set to be repealed.
These policies prioritize fossil fuels and U.S. auto manufacturing over EV adoption and environmental goals.
True once you factor that all in plus how “smart” the average American is and knowing there are less intelligent folks that make up the bottom half then I get it. I just don’t get the loss of 7 million voters for the dems from 2020 to 2024 vs the same guy. Spoonamore’s recent post about countries in AZ. Smart Elections press release they just put out.
Maybe I’m still on a little hopium. I deleted my Reddit account a while ago but I periodically check r/somethingiswrong2024 some post are grasping at straws but some are seriously concerning.
