Jan. 14, 2026 | Trump’s combative Detroit visit; Republican EV resistance easing

Published 2 months ago
Description

President Donald Trump visited Detroit to tout tariffs and flipped off a worker at Ford’s F-150 plant. Bill Ford defends the automaker’s nearly $20 billion EV write-down. Plus, new polling shows Republican resistance to EVs has eased 20 points over three years as cultural hostility declines, though purchase interest dipped recently. Mike Murphy of EVs for All America explains what’s driving the shift and why only 28 percent of auto consumers rate Trump as a friend of the industry.
